Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"MultiWAN and Balance service"
"Easy admin functionality. You can quickly do all the admin functionality without reducing cycles."
"Monitoring infrastructure and business applications are the most valuable features."
"It is the foundation for our monitoring solution."
"Monitors the infrastructure asset and also monitors as an IT service."
"The number of probes available. Out of the box, I believe about 200 probes are available. And, if there's a probe that is not available, you can write one. You can also go to the communities and suggest, and based on demand, CA will write one for you."
"It is easy to implement but requires good planning."
"Great customized dashboards and drill down reports with auto serve analytics."
"The ability to set up templates and groups of checks, as well as customize the checks themselves."
"This is a very good solution and it is simple to use, for any company."
"Nagios is a custom API manager, and we can expose custom APIs for our integration. This is a great feature."
"Nagios is stable and it's easy to use the monitoring software, which is why we chose this product."
"I can monitor a phone on a desk to very big servers of any company."
"The solution is pretty stable."
"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."
"It is an open-source platform with valuable features for performance and stability."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"It needs a little bit more functionality in the Admin Console."
"DX UIM's reporting and customization need to be improved."
"The other element is that there are no real templates, out of the box. Let's go with an example where we do have the probe, which is great, and we do have a really nuanced customer with a small set of devices that maybe not a lot of other customers use. There might not be a template in place, so effectively we have the tool in front of us but we still need to develop a solution. So it would be really nice to see a little bit more of something like a central repository of templates that we could use. That would help us expedite our onboarding process."
"It would be good to implement views showing the aggregated status graphically."
"We want to see more investment in the UI and the dashboard."
"I think it can be improved by a greater provision of specialized technical support, as there are very few trained personnel there."
"In the UMP, certain devices will show up multiple times and they don't correlate correctly. That's one of the issues."
"We have experienced challenges with finding a mechanism to deploy the agents, but it's only on the first deployment so it's not a big issue."
"The scalability of Nagios XI is scalable. However, it is not easy to do."
"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 uses the backend as Perl and could be modified to a more lightweight solution like what's being offered by other vendors."
"The technical support is variable - sometimes I get answers, but most of my tickets go unanswered."
"The product's stability could be even better."
"The reporting structure could be more streamlined."
"We'd like to see more integration capabilities."
"There's room for improvement in the visibility, and in the ability to extract information. Stuff like this should be more simple."
