Mezmo vs Zabbix comparison

"With LogDNA, which brings all the logs together in an interleaved stream, it allows us to take a transaction and relate it to other contextual events making the gathering of evidence for auditors and our internal RCA much more productive."

"The solution aggregates all event streams, so that if there are any issues, it's all in the same interface."

"LogDNA consolidates all logs into one place, which is super valuable."

"We haven't had anything yet that we couldn't do through LogDNA."

"The product is very stable."

"The most valuable feature is monitoring."

"When you learn how to work with it, you will love it."

"We like the user-interface for this solution, which makes it an easy to use tool."

"The most valuable feature is service assurance."

"It is a good product. It is easy to integrate and use."

"The solution allows you to configure and customize how you want to collect information from servers or other systems."

"ZABBIX is an all-in-one monitoring solution and we don't need any other monitoring tool since we use ZABBIX."

"No ability to encapsulate a query or a filter, and communicate or share that among the team."

"Scalability could be improved; we are using it through the IBM cloud deployment and on some of the data centers that are very heavily used, there is a significant lag in the event stream, sometimes 10, 15 minutes behind, which makes the RCA impossible."

"Every once in a while, our IBM cloud operational implementation gets behind. Sometimes, when we have a customer event, we do not get access to the latest logs for about 30 minutes, particularly for the sites that are heavily utilized. This is clearly not good. It is impossible to RCA when you can't look at the logs that pertain to the time period in which the event occurred. It could be more of an operational problem than a feature problem. I don't have visibility about whether it is a LogDNA issue or just an operational issue."

"The user interface could be better."

"The documentation could be improved."

"The initial setup could be complex if you don't have templates. If creating templates from scratch, it's quite difficult, but if you are using already pre-created templates and setups for your needs, it looks very good."

"The System Center Operations Manager can be improved."

"We would like to monitor other touchpoints such as ATM machines. It would be great if it can provide monitoring of ATM machines. Compatibility with other products would also be great."

"The APM monitoring has room for improvement, although I hear that the new 5.2 version has some improvements in that area, and I'd like to give that a go. I would like to see a few more templates out there for different styles of monitoring. I use the Grafana interface for reporting. I would also like it to have an out-of-the-box ability to email reports. You can create reports, but to be able to email those reports would be really helpful. I've got users who are not interested in logging in and generating a report. They want it all pre-canned and sent to an email address. It would also be really handy if we could pin certain reports up onto platforms such as Teams or SharePoint. A GUI for the proxy server would be cool to have for debugging purposes and for the support teams to have a look at, but I don't know whether that's really feasible to do. I get enough from the log files themselves."

"In the area of the solution where you write the command, it is not very user-friendly and could be improved."

"Zabbix isn't very good at automation just yet."

"There is no license but we need to pay for support."

"Zabbix is an open-source tool, and it's free to use."

"There is a license required for this solution and we pay annually for our license."

"The tool's licensing costs are yearly."

"The solution is free. However, many open-sourced tools start out free but eventually start charging."

"Zabbix and Grafana are both open source products, we only needed to go to their website and download the application and we began to use them. The solutions are free."

"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 pay the subscription for support by year."
