Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Microsoft, ServiceNow and others in Server Monitoring."This solution has improved our organization through the provision of efficient resource utilization and capacity planning."
"This is a good product and I recommend it."
"The managing and monitoring are the solution's most valuable features. They are something I find quite helpful in my work."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy with the help of the framework consisting of Microsoft Azure."
"I think it's stable, scalable, and flexible."
"The interface is in continuous development and improves version by version."
"It has good graphs of what is going on within the operating system."
"The solution allows you to configure and customize how you want to collect information from servers or other systems."
"Like other common Linux distributions, some of the most valuable features of this solution are the ease of use and deployment. It's simple and has a lot of packages and a lot of software."
"The solution's design has recently changed and it is visually pleasing with more color, for example, there is blue, black, and white."
"It not only provides the preconfigured item monitoring feature, but it is also easy to configure custom items."
"It is a great product. The SNMP protocol tracking feature is good. I really like how it tracks SNMP. The alerts are also great."
"Zabbix helps to save time."
"We like the user-interface for this solution, which makes it an easy to use tool."
"The return on investment report is too difficult to understand."
"The product should increase the processing capacity and allow speedy deployment, as both of them are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"If the solution could provide better integration to make it easier to manage everything on different servers, that would be helpful. Whatever servers a company has, be it IBM, Dell, etc., if the System Management could be a platform that links all of them together, it would make management across different server types easier."
"The quality of service and support for this solution needs to be improved."
"I think that support integration could be improved."
"Our customers would like to see the price lowered."
"Zabbix can use better documentation and support for troubleshooting."
"In the next release, I'm hoping for features targeted towards larger users with more customizable options. Despite this, I think pre-canned reports that can be used straight out of the box would be beneficial rather than having to configure each report individually. Additionally, a deeper dive into software configurations on the machines would be useful, although I understand there may be challenges in implementing this due to scripting requirements. More documentation would also be appreciated."
"It would be helpful if they translated the documentation to Cyrillic languages."
"The GUI could be more intuitive. Also, we'd like streaming telemetry. Zabbix might have this feature, but I haven't seen it yet. It took us a long time to get started because the documentation isn't very descriptive. We had to go through various sources like YouTube and forums to get this solution working."
"Zabbix technical support is sold separately."
"The product delivers false positives during reporting because of flapping. Other reasonably priced alternatives may have better performance."
"For us, the initial setup was complex"
"Zabbix claims that there is an auto-discovery process but my team member was facing difficulty and was told that it's not really automatic, and there are some manual steps."
