Partner Technical Support & Escalation Manager at a tech vendor with 51-200 employees
Real-time dashboards have improved our deployment monitoring and incident response
We are using Opsview ourselves, rather than being a consultant or a reseller. We do not use its auto-discovery feature. We do not utilize its API driven architecture. I do not know what metrics we use to assess the effectiveness of Opsview's hybrid IT monitoring. Overall, I am pretty satisfied with Opsview as it is good for what it does. I do not know if Grafana has any other advantages besides better stats, as I am not involved in that side. Based on my experience, I would still recommend Opsview to others as it is good for what it does. I gave this review a rating of 8.

A highly scalable and stable solution that provides excellent features and can be integrated with any product
The support team is more into R&D. They're not focused on support. The vendor lets the partners provide support for the solution. Partners must have StableNet-certified engineers. Complex problems arise for complex installations. When a problem is deep, it takes a lot of time to resolve it. It goes to the R&D and development teams. They do solve it, but the time taken could be reduced.

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

Pros

"Afterwards, they were impressed by how easy monitoring could be, and they no longer had to edit large text files in order to configure hosts and service checks."
"Overall, I am pretty satisfied with Opsview as it is good for what it does."
"Customer service is great; always responsive, within minutes at times."
"Opsview provides all the functionality of NetSaint and Nagios but with the simplicity of a GUI front end, using MySQL to centralize configuration."
"We now have a single view for all systems monitored within our IT estate, while we previously had three different systems (each configured differently)."
"Very easy-to-use interface, especially starting from v5 onwards Advanced tweaking possibilities Netflow"
"For me, scalability and reliability are the product's most valuable features."
"There are several valuable features for us, including ease of configuration of monitoring of new hosts/services, worker redundancy and load balancing, and the fact that it’s compatible with the plethora of existing Nagios plugins available on the web."
"The best features are the reporting, utilization, and network graph."
"We can integrate any tool with StableNet."
"The solution is stable."
 

Cons

"It's probably the priciest option of all its main competitors."
"In Opsview 4.6.3, there is no provision for making bulk changes to monitored servers via the GUI, though it is possible to custom-script bulk changes via the API."
"I wish they'd update the iOS app, which, I think, is the same version I used back in 2012 or so."
"We're already evaluating v5.0 and to tell the truth, there's a couple of things that we found really useful in previous versions that for some reason they have removed."
"Hard to say, some minor changes could help improve ease of configuring (which have already been requested and are now on the roadmap)."
"It can be a little bit flaky with the agent on VMware."
"Sometimes Opsview has crashed, but the multiple master/slave solution provides consistent uptime for monitoring."
"Often the webpage becomes inaccessible and you need to refresh the page."
"The dashboard has a lot of room for improvement."
"The existing dashboard capability is there, but it is not user-friendly."
"The solution is expensive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is not cheap. I think that the pricing is a little bit on the high side."
"The solution is priced similarly to other tools offering similar features."
"I would rate pricing a seven out of ten, where ten is the highest price."
