Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in IT Infrastructure Monitoring."The quick notification of issues, quick alerting because timeliness is always valuable, it's very important for us."
"The stability of the product is key. It never breaks, really. The stability and reliability of the Spectrum product have been top-notch."
"The most valuable feature is the auto-discovery, which is nice because you don't have to do anything to add a new component."
"The monitoring just comes to us: "Oh, there's something wrong with that machine." It tells us. There are some 50,000 machines or so, all doing different things. And if they go down we hear about it."
"The containerization of different objects was very helpful in building an org structure. Being able to separately manage your MSP clients with separate visibility was also helpful."
"Allows us to have a single console/notification point, with the alarms of all the tools that we use for monitoring."
"Stability has been good. We really have not had any issues."
"It does correlation so instead of producing 20 alarms if a site goes down, it only creates one."
"The most valuable features of Nagios XI are you can customize it based on your use case and requirements. It is flexible and easy to integrate with our systems. You can customize the solution by adding additional features using code."
"Though I downplayed the administrative NCC GUI, this is by far the strongest aspect of the Nagios XI product."
"Nagios is a custom API manager, and we can expose custom APIs for our integration. This is a great feature."
"The features I've found the most useful are the plug-ins, the fact that you can connect almost everything to it. That's very useful."
"Nagios XI helps us monitor the bandwidth of the internet connection, HTTP, DNS, active directory services, and exchange data availability. We have multiple servers to monitor databases, availability of servers, and ping."
"BPI: It allows defining peripherals to map business criticality for efficient monitoring, as required."
"The most valuable feature of Nagios XI is customization. We can customize based on our requirements. We can do modifications and implement a lot of scripts. Additionally, it is easy to use."
"The most useful aspect of this solution is the ability to customize it for the client agent."
"Real-time alerting is a very important feature. We need alerts for everything. We have alarms setup and get alerts through email or third-party integrations depending on what's happening – critical VMs, high CPU usage, security concerns."
"OS monitoring needs to be better developed, as well as their services, e.g., cluster monitoring, URLs, etc."
"It doesn't really allow for multi-tenancy. If you're an ISP or an MSP and you want to use this tool to provide these types of fault management services to your customers, you would need a separate SpectroSERVER for each customer..."
"DX Spectrum needs to incorporate faster support."
"Event correlation only works on one server, rather than on all of the servers in the same cluster environment."
"It needs better integration with other CA products."
"The GIS map feature needs to be enhanced and synced with topology views of containers and global collections."
"If the integration is simplified or improved, it will be a unique selling point in comparison to the competition on the market."
"We want to make our own choice for the AIOps solution and do not want to be forced to use the Broadcom OI solution by default."
"The product does not have SAP monitoring."
"The interface could be more user-friendly."
"There's room for improvement in the visibility, and in the ability to extract information. Stuff like this should be more simple."
"They need more documentation for the plugins."
"The PNP4Nagios plugin not working easily with XI is an issue for me, because some open source monitoring plugins do not work out of the box. But in the end, you learn to live with it."
"Nagios XI can improve network and hardware monitoring, these parameters should be simplified to allow usage for monitoring. Additionally, if there was automatic reporting it would be helpful."
"The product's stability could be even better."
"The technical support is variable - sometimes I get answers, but most of my tickets go unanswered."
"Third-party connectivity is the part that needs improvement within Oracle Infrastructure Monitoring Cloud Service."
