Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"This solution has a self-healing handler where if the service is down, it is automatically restarted.""An affordable solution for small organizations to do basic network monitoring.""Macros and the ability to connect it to Google Maps are valuable features.""Icinga does the job and is fairly stable.""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.""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.""The value of Icinga is that it has hundreds of plugins, so it's really easy to monitor pretty much anything.""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."

More Icinga Pros →

"The most valuable features are the notifications, which give us failure alerts for some infrastructure within the backup, and the reporting is excellent.""Veaam ONE is a very good product in virtualized environments.""I think Veeam ONE is a good product to supervise and monitor infrastructure and for backup purposes.""Veeam ONE is a very good management product...The technical support is very good, and I think it's one of the best. The response time is very quick.""The solution is simple to use.""Storage gateway feature is very flexible.""One valuable feature of Veeam ONE for backup management is its dashboard, which offers a comprehensive view of backups and other essential data.""I think Veeam ONE is great as it is, it does everything I need."

Cons
"The installation and configuration are very complex.""The tool currently fails to provide notifications to users.""One thing that Icinga lacks is the capability to create advanced and customized dashboards within the tool itself.""Icinga’s automation could be improved.""At this time, the layout of the website is a bit difficult. It should be more user-friendly for changing the background and logos.""I think the software is quite good, but we have had problems with getting it to recognize certain areas and amend certain checks, where we needed so we would have to create backend scripts for those checks. Though, being open source, it has the support to create backend scripts, it would be better to have these scripts in-built.""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.""One of the areas that are frustrating is remote monitoring for more than one machine."

More Icinga Cons →

"Sometimes the solution give reports that are confusing and has errors. So the integration of the full solution with the resolution of resolving the error should be added in the next release.The solution should also provide more customization, automation, better documentation.""Not highly customizable.""There is a lot of information, so maybe the dashboards could consolidate it.""The pricing is very high.""They need to support more platforms.""It would be great if Veeam ONE had a business hour reporting feature because sometimes a client would want to know what workers do during business hours and outside of business hours. This type of report will give you the added benefit when you're scaling up and scaling down in the cloud, for example, if I wanted to swap hot and cold storage during specific hours to save on cost. Business hour reporting in Veeam ONE will give you a lot of benefits and added value. Scalability needs to be improved in the solution.""Backup management features are crucial for ensuring the reliability and automation of backup processes.""I've never considered what improvements Veeam needs, and I haven't asked our customers if there is any room for improvement. As the manager, I only see the reports."
