Pros
"We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."

More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Pros →

"Device backups are smooth and managed centrally, with a nice dashboard, so you can quickly see the status.""The features we found most valuable in ManageEngine OpManager are the probe server and reporting because they're pretty good features.""It is easy to use and deploy.""The most valuable feature of ManageEngine OpManager is the management of the virtual machine and the host machine.""The integration with the firewall monitoring, the security monitoring, is great.""The solution's most valuable feature is its ability to reach most of our network devices and get the most from them.""We don't have to keep an eye on it; it has a good automation option, which keeps us informed. It gives very less false positives. Overall, a really great product.""We have found the solution to be stable."

More ManageEngine OpManager Pros →

"The initial setup was not complex.""The most valuable feature is the monitoring of virtual machines.""Health and communication links availability.""Setup was straightforward. Initial deployment took two or three months.""We use Zabbix to monitor our organization's IT infrastructure and workstations. We don't use Microsoft Intune since it's expensive. The tool's real-time alerting system has proved crucial for us, particularly when a new device joins a network that is not one of our own devices. It notifies us about the presence of this new device, allowing us to investigate further. Additionally, it alerts us about disk usage, memory usage, and the software installed on the machine.""We have found that Zabbix is more easy to use than other applications.""During my testing, the features that I like the most are that it can be integrated with my system, and it provides me with reports of all of my servers.""Zabbix can use old data to current data to set the threshold. We can use previous data to set the threshold."

Cons
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."

More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Cons →

"The initial setup is a bit complicated. It needs a technician who is very aware of the flow and how to officially set up the flow chart, etc.""It would be great if there were some sort of artificial intelligence feature which would help us make improvements in the network once we find an issue, and do it automatically.""With regard to configurations, however, it would be nice to have more documentation on SNMP configurations. For example, if I want to add a new vendor, it would be great if ManageEngine provided the requirements for that vendor, such as the commands needed.""We have been facing an issue since last year when a lot of our users started to work from home through their mobiles or computers. We are having trouble reaching these devices. We are now planning to publish our instance to the cloud so that we can reach these devices. Its performance should be improved in terms of the discovery of the devices. I would like to feel confident with the discovery that this solution does. For example, on my dashboard, I would like to be able to view a list of all devices seen on a specific server. At present, it is difficult to find such information. This would be an excellent feature to have.""ManageEngine OpManager could improve by having a better cloud presence.""The storage level monitoring needs improvement. It needs storage level monitoring on the server itself. That feature is lacking right now.""ManageEngine OpManager can improve by having better updates for critical issues.""The licensing for this solution is not straightforward and should be improved."

More ManageEngine OpManager Cons →

"The product delivers false positives during reporting because of flapping. Other reasonably priced alternatives may have better performance.""The user web interface is a little bit too basic, we need to link Zabbix to Grafana to have more options, such as graphs and charts. The interface needs to be improved. Additionally, there could be better integration with Grafana API.""I want Zabbix to improve the UX/UI. Zabbix doesn't use a JavaScript chart for images, and I want them to improve this.""The documentation could be improved.""Having a more customizable interface and dashboard would be an improvement.""Zabbix isn't very good at automation just yet.""An area for improvement would be the ease of doing aggregation from the value or different devices.""Correlation of events would be a wonderful addition."

    I have researched a quite a few network monitoring tools which can be used for various monitoring purposes of not only the servers, but the intermediate routers as well. There are majorly three types of these softwares. Ones which are completely open-source, you can do almost anything you want using these, but they require quite some expertise before you can use them. Then there are the ones that are not open source, the enterprise softwares and cost you some money, but on the other hand, they are extremely easy to set-up and learn. You can have them up and running in a matter of minutes. And then there are those which are completely cloud based. They can be free of cost or charge some money depending on the software. The good thing about these is that you don’t have to install any extra software, and it can be managed completely online but then again these have limited features and you cannot exploit them to the full extent as you can do with the open-source and to some extent the enterprise software, so I won’t suggest you to use these, because these are generally not the complete solutions and require other support software to achieve the same. Below I have listed the outstanding pros and cons of the various Network analyzers that you can look into Nagios Pros: Nagios offers an extensive set of collector plug-ins that allows users to gather performance and availability data from a broad range of operating systems, including  Windows and Netware Nagios… Read more →
