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."
"The single dashboard is a valuable feature."
"An affordable solution for small organizations to do basic network monitoring."
"The drafts are easy but what I like about Icinga is that there are many add-ons that you can download."
"There's a module called Icinga Director, which helps us configure the product using an intuitive interface through clicks instead of creating a text configuration. It's very helpful for us."
"The value of Icinga is that it has hundreds of plugins, so it's really easy to monitor pretty much anything."
"Icinga has multiple automation and integration features. There is an API for everything and a web UI for configurations. The APIs enable you to automate tasks in Icinga. We can also use plugins to talk to the API. The Icinga Director talks to a database in the background, and you can import settings from the CMDB to all systems in Icinga."
"Icinga does the job and is fairly stable."
"This solution has a self-healing handler where if the service is down, it is automatically restarted."
"Macros and the ability to connect it to Google Maps are valuable features."
"It also allows us to predict the capacity on WAN circuits, as well as other circuits, to help us plan for upgrading."
"The product simplifies monitoring by providing real-time alerts through a GUI dashboard, email and texts."
"Being able to look back historically at the uptime and downtime is invaluable."
"Key features for us are custom reporting, 95th Percentile, and trend lines."
"Summary Reports provide a quick way to identify where potential issues are. Drill-downs provide more granular details very quickly."
"This solution allowed us to track down trouble users."
"We're able to recover more expensive ports on our access line devices."
"Device grouping is very easy, and you can discover thousands of devices in a few minutes."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"The solution lacks many features important to higher-level IT management and network support."
"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."
"At this time, the layout of the website is a bit difficult. It should be more user-friendly for changing the background and logos."
"It needs Trap SNMP. I saw the documentation for Zabbix, that it has its own built-in product which handles SNMP traps, and there's nothing similar in Icinga or Nagios. I think this feature is most important for me."
"We have found some problems with Nagios, and support isn't very responsive."
"Icinga’s automation could be improved."
"One of the areas that are frustrating is remote monitoring for more than one machine."
"The installation and configuration are very complex."
"More private MIB object support, such as WAN optimisation performance and wireless, would be helpful."
"It could use more features on Netflow analyser, such as time series graphs and a single network export UDP port and UDP forwarding."
"I would like to see a friendlier user interface in the administration tool."
"I would like to have soft alarming. If an inner-base all of a sudden triggers a threshold, we have to rely on a lot of other tools and then we go into Statseeker to verify it. If Statseeker would confirm it preemptively and trigger it into our network panel, that would be nice."
"It would be very nice to have the Cisco ACI option included in the regular license."
"I would like to see the solution incorporate diagnosis of the workstation."
"The interface could be more user-friendly and it would be nice if there were enhanced options for reporting."
"I'd say the interface could improve a little bit. I find with new users, I tend to have to spend a bit of time walking them through how to use the interface. It could be a little more user friendly."
