Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The product helps users stay on top of gaining insight into the active directory, permissions and security sets, and user group policy changes."
"The technical support is good."
"It is easy to identify and collect information from all of the nodes on the network."
"The overall functionality of Zabbix is very good. The monitoring of bank applications that Zabbix provides is great. The information is displayed on a dashboard that is easily viewed."
"The solution is open-source, easy to manage, and user-friendly making it easy for anyone to use."
"Templates are good. We download them from the official Zabbix site or the community. If the information we need isn't available, we create custom templates based on client requirements."
"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 most valuable feature is service assurance."
"The flexibility of this solution is amazing."
"The level of discovery-based configuration that lets us auto-configure the monitoring for various systems is a valuable feature."
"We are able to do problem determination on runaway processes."
 

Cons

"We would like to have support for integration with ServiceDesk."
"The ManageEngine features could improve to show graphs of the traffic and network utility."
"The product could use more intelligence, automation and general availability of product information."
"We would like to see the addition of automatic push functionality to this product. This would save time when monitoring our servers and networks as, at present, we have to manually install the Zabbix agent on any hardware to be monitored."
"I would like for this solution to be more cloud-friendly."
"I have experienced stability issues approximately five or ten times."
"I would like to remotely connect to the computer, and Zabbix doesn't have this capability."
"It would be helpful if they translated the documentation to Cyrillic languages."
"It should be easy to modify the front end."
"There are a lot of areas for improvement, specifically in the dashboards and reports functionalities."
"It could be more stable."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"This is an open-source solution that can be used free of charge."
"The tool's licensing is good."
"The solution is free to use but they offer support as a paid service. If you can go read the manuals and do the fine-tuning based on your needs, you do not need to pay anything and you will have a full solution."
"It is a true open-source solution, so there are no licensing costs."
"It is open source. If you want to have a subscription or official support, you can pay for it. They have different plans, which are not that expensive. The plans are based on per monitoring server, not per monitored equipment. So, it is not at all expensive, and you can also live without the support if you want a cheaper option."
"We were searching for an open source solution and Zabbix fit the bill because it is free and open source under the GPL license."
"This is an open-source solution that can be used free of charge."
"It is worth every cent to pay or even study to do your own installation."
