Find out what your peers are saying about PagerDuty, Atlassian, Everbridge and others in IT Alerting and Incident Management."The alert calling feature is the best because notifications are delivered via phone messages."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is helpdesk escalation."
"The flexible schedule is the most valuable feature. It was very easy to set out a rotation."
"Transmogrifier and automatic solution report gives me a report with the solution and the way to solve issues when an error occurred."
"VictorOps has been good enough for us and it's effective for our needs in case of an on-call escalation process."
"The most valuable feature is the alert and alarm monitoring."
"We value the auto-host discovery, template import, bulk import/export features. Newer versions also add nice features, such as multi-IP per host."
"It has good graphs of what is going on within the operating system."
"It's a flexible solution."
"I like being able to use proxy servers for different locations. The agents are pretty cool. They're easy to roll out. The standard out-of-the-box templates are also pretty easy to use. The integration with other learning products is also good. I have, in the past, used Slack, but we've integrated it with Microsoft Teams. We also use it for SMS with a service called Redcoat. It is very flexible. It does what I need it to do, and my manager is very happy because it doesn't cost anything. We are nearing 4,000 hosts inside Zabbix, and we've got another 6,000 access points to add to it. We've thrown everything at it, and it has managed to keep going. I am very impressed with the tool, and I'd shake their hand very hard if I got to say the compliments to the Zabbix team. They keep improving it and doing refreshes, which is one good thing about it. There is also online information as well as books that you can purchase if you're willing to read enough. There is a lot to pick up, but it is a pretty complete solution."
"The performance and bandwidth are valuable features."
"Zabbix is good for discovery."
"Zabbix is very easy to implement."
"Should have more YouTube webinars."
"The third-party configuration tool could be easier to use."
"The solution can be improved by including a wider list of permissions."
"At that stage, all our needs are fulfilled, but at the beginning, we had some feature requests and they were deployed during their roadmap."
"There could be improvements with communicating an incident or alert."
"In terms of user-friendliness, large maps could be more interactive. We should be able to click on some areas and move some objects. It would make it simpler to see things while analyzing some dedicated parameters."
"An area for improvement would be the ease of doing aggregation from the value or different devices."
"The solution needs to add features for finding loopholes or problems and their root causes."
"The performance reporting could be improved."
"The event correlation could be better."
"I had problems using Zabbix when working with SUSE Enterprise; many companies use SUSE."
"I am having difficulties connecting it to Grafana, as well as some of the other plugins like Kibana."
"Its UI should be improved. They did some improvements in version 5, but it could benefit from some more work. Its integrations should also be improved. They've been active for one year, and they seem to have noticed that. It has new integrations, but it could benefit from more integrations. As far as I know, there is no model to push statistics, metrics, or events towards Zabbix. This type of API isn't yet there, whereas some other tools provide an API for this."
