"We have found the solution to be stable.""The apply rules feature saves a lot of time.""The value of Icinga is that it has hundreds of plugins, so it's really easy to monitor pretty much anything.""The best thing about the solution is how it highlights errors, the issues, and what needs my attention. The solution directs me to areas that I should look for first.""I like the ability to amend and adjust things really easily, which is useful in a case where you could make it auto-discover and then set a template to say all of these applications or servers under this template have an automatic threshold set that you’d set up manually.""Icinga does the job and is fairly stable.""It is really easy in Icinga to create your own plugin and integrate it without any fuss. And it works just perfectly fine.""Macros and the ability to connect it to Google Maps are valuable features."

"All in all, LiveAction LiveNX has become an indispensable tool for maintaining and improving our network's reliability and performance, ultimately supporting our organization's goal of providing timely and dependable delivery services.""The product has a very good graphical interface.""The alerting feature is very good because it allows you to set MOS alerts at various network junctures or data points.""One of the valuable features is the ability to create CLI scripts on the fly to fix any issues. We were using it for QoS modeling to ensure that we were properly modeling QoS, and it basically said here is what you need to fix to get this QoS done, whether it is ACL or something else. It would either push or recommend. If you have the right credentials, you could also push. It is very good if you are a Cisco shop. It gives you reporting, latency, and bandwidth utilization for your applications, so you can do good capacity management planning. There are a lot of pieces that LiveNX can give you. It is a total NPM solution for SD-WAN.""The intention and the idea of the filter is great.""We don't have any complaints about the software. According to my team, it's a very good tool that's very intuitive.""Its analytical capability is really good."

Cons
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."

More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Cons →

"Icinga is a complex solution that's hard to learn. It's a powerful product for monitoring, but new users will have a hard time figuring out what to do.""In general, the product does not look good. However, it does what it is supposed to do. So, the improvements should focus on usability and UI.""The installation and configuration are very complex.""One thing that Icinga lacks is the capability to create advanced and customized dashboards within the tool itself.""Icinga’s automation could be improved.""The user interface should be improved.""One of the areas that are frustrating is remote monitoring for more than one machine.""We have found some problems with Nagios, and support isn't very responsive."

More Icinga Cons →

"The tool crashes sometimes when we try to pull reports simultaneously.""Sometimes the solution does not register devices properly and that is a bug.""They need to create a more simplified UI.""This is a horrible solution and I think everything needs to be improved.""It is not as robust as other NPM solutions. For instance, there is a problem while labeling specific applications. It works well with well-known applications, but when you have to put in new applications that are not very known and set them up with names, ports, URLs, or some protocols, it is not as intuitive.""The only downside to this software is the price.""Improved documentation and more responsive customer support can help in addressing issues faster."
