Helps reduce response time but has room to improve customization complexity
We are not working on simple standalone solutions like Kaspersky DDoS Protection or Hybrid Cloud Security. Once you understand Zabbix, then it is easy to customize those web pages and graphs for our customer use. It is fully automated to your requirements. Zabbix is working fine with no issues, and I am satisfied with it. We have combined Zabbix and SolarWinds. The integration works fine, and it is easy to integrate Zabbix with the IT environment. We were trying to purchase MDR (Managed Detection and Response), but we are not working on that. I don't have real experience with MDR. We are using Falcon software for that. We are working with Falcon Complete, not with Sandbox. We are not using Kaspersky for business or cloud protection. For that, we are using Zabbix CrowdStrike Falcon Complete solution. I have given this review an overall rating of 8.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Since we started using OpMon, we have increased our assertiveness and consequently reduced costs with fewer errors."
"As a consulting company we implement management solutions to a large variety of companies and after working with OpMon our project time was reduced and we can offer a different solution to each customer."
"Dashboard and the customization of the items and triggers are the most valuable features."
"With Zabbix, you receive a free enterprise-class monitoring solution, as long as you know how to use it."
"With Zabbix (and with some programming experience), you can monitor absolutely everything."
"Through this approach, and given the level of details, we get friendly dashboards in the output, and at the same time a simple problem of localization tool."
"It works well for my business."
"It is a very good product, and it is for a good reason that we have chosen Zabbix as part of our monitoring portfolio."
"Its overall flexibility is most valuable. When our customers have some custom applications that are not necessarily covered by the community or a standard monitoring tool, we use Zabbix to build our own modules with our own templates. This feature has been useful in using Zabbix for infrastructure and IT monitoring. It has also been useful for industrial equipment monitoring. Zabbix is very lightweight. It is efficient in terms of performance because it doesn't use a lot of resources."
"The most valuable features are the monitoring and the ease with which we can set it up at customer sites with our custom Zabbix proxy and tools."
 

Cons

"Infrastructure and business monitoring services need improvement."
"Outside of the normal standard monitoring, I would like to extend patching, importing patching, and supporting patching for Windows Servers."
"There are a lot of areas for improvement, specifically in the dashboards and reports functionalities."
"The potential and customization is a little difficult because you have to learn scripts."
"I am not giving them a higher rating because they don't have analytics."
"Zabbix claims that there is an auto-discovery process but my team member was facing difficulty and was told that it's not really automatic, and there are some manual steps."
"An area for improvement would be the ease of doing aggregation from the value or different devices."
"The product could be more secure and more stable."
"The server monitoring could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"This solution is open-source and free to use."
"We’re using the free version, which covers all our current needs."
"This is an open-source solution that can be used free of charge."

"Zabbix is free but if you use it in production then you have to pay for it."
"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."
"This solution is completely open-source, so it is quite affordable."
"If you have 20,000 hosts, the support costs around €95,000 for a year."

Nagios vs. Zabbix vs. PRTG vs. Spiceworks vs. Solarwinds Network Performance Monitor
