We performed a comparison between eG Enterprise and Zabbix based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability 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."
"The GUI is nicer than all the other graphical interfaces out there."
"Its ability to monitor failures and to restart a Windows service when it fails."
"The auto-configuration or auto-Thresholding is very important because it saves a phenomenal amount of labor and setup costs and time."
"Some of the best features of eG are, in terms of APM, they have complete modules between application performance monitoring, server monitoring, and even storage and network-based monitoring. The UI is also quite good. They have some standard AI-based capabilities, even though it's not quite as advanced when compared to Dynatrace. eG has some good, basic APM capabilities."
"Sometimes when we face issues with the new technologies or very old technologies where we cannot enhance the service, they move to work with us directly and start doing some development on this area which is very good for us."
"EG monitors all infrastructure elements (all OS, all database, storage, network, and web server) from a single console."
"The most important feature is the ability to design, then implement monitoring tests on the fly as we are adapting to different situations."
"The product is simple to use."
"In terms of customization and integration, we have more flexibility. We can automate configurations, define deletion rules, and customize based on the needs. The client interface allows for further configuration, making it quite comprehensive."
"The pricing of the product is reasonable."
"The flexibility of this solution is amazing."
"There is a problems page that shows us every warning or problem that occurs on our VMs globally. The map screen is also really useful because this is something that was missing. I don't know every other tool in the market. So, I don't know if this is a good point of only Zabbix, or other tools are also doing it, but from my point of view, this is the most useful page that I use, along with the problems page that efficiently lists the problem, recovery time, ending hours, starting hours, and so on."
"They've already added extra features, such as noise-canceling and facial recognition, which is great."
"The solution allows you to configure and customize how you want to collect information from servers or other systems."
"Zabbix helps to save time."
"The most valuable feature is the support for monitoring Cisco switches."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"Needs to improve the networking monitor capabilities."
"The interface could be improved as it is not real intuitive. It is not user-friendly."
"The UI looks a little dated and could do with a refresh."
"The solution needs to enhance the management dashboards."
"Application TCP latency is an area with room for improvement, but I believe this is already on the roadmap."
"would like to see improvements in the alarm display console."
"eG Enterprise's licensing could be cheaper. Even compared to Dynatrace, I think the price is quite expensive considering the APM functionalities, even though they have other benefits such as info monitoring."
"Dashboards are difficult to create, and not so useful."
"The product could be more secure and more stable."
"Zabbix could improve when it comes to large-scale use cases. Additionally, the inventory could be better when connecting to other solutions, such as ServiceNow. There show to be better integration with other platforms and storage."
"The System Center Operations Manager can be improved."
"The reports are not great and should be improved."
"I would like to remotely connect to the computer, and Zabbix doesn't have this capability."
"The documentation could be improved."
"Having a more customizable interface and dashboard would be an improvement."
"Its UI needs to be improved a little bit more so that an end-user is also able to handle it. I can handle it, but others should also be able to handle it in a better way. It becomes complex when we are growing and need to add proxies. We need more scalability features and documentation for different use cases. A lot of articles are available, but they need to be in proper documentation. For example, when you have thousands of servers that have to be monitored in different regions of the world, there should be some kind of documentation to describe how you can create proxies and add them. Sometimes, when you are using the database, it can get overloaded. When the network is growing, the number of transactions becomes very high, and the database gets overloaded. There should be information about how to reduce the load on the MySQL database, which is what Zabbix is using. The market is growing a lot, and it should be enhanced for a lot more things. We are currently bringing enhancements at our end for different use cases. For example, when dockerization is going on, how can we check the logs inside the Dockers. We should also be able to monitor and check the number of logins and add features such as SSO login and two-factor authentication as a protocol. These are the security features and concerns that we have to deal with. Currently, we are developing modules to add features to Zabbix, but they should also work on these features."
eG Enterprise is ranked 40th in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability with 21 reviews while Zabbix is ranked 10th in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability with 98 reviews. eG Enterprise is rated 8.2, while Zabbix is rated 8.2. The top reviewer of eG Enterprise writes "Great visibility, easy to set up, and has very responsive technical support". On the other hand, the top reviewer of Zabbix writes "Allows any number of customizations but lacks functionality for finding root causes". eG Enterprise is most compared with Grafana, ControlUp, Dynatrace, AppDynamics and PRTG Network Monitor, whereas Zabbix is most compared with Centreon, Checkmk, SolarWinds NPM, Nagios XI and Nagios Core.
