ShahzadAziz - PeerSpot reviewer
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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is stable."
"The best features are the reporting, utilization, and network graph."
"We can integrate any tool with StableNet."
"We detect problems before the customer does and before it actually happens using the predictive functions in Zabbix."
"It's a very reliable platform and we've never had any issues regarding the scalability or the stability of Zabbix."
"We value the auto-host discovery, template import, bulk import/export features. Newer versions also add nice features, such as multi-IP per host."
"We have found that Zabbix is more easy to use than other applications."
"The integration with third-party tools and the alerts are most valuable."
"The pricing of the product is reasonable."
"The solution is open-source, easy to manage, and user-friendly making it easy for anyone to use."
"It can send messages to our ticketing system."
 

Cons

"The solution is expensive."
"The dashboard has a lot of room for improvement."
"The existing dashboard capability is there, but it is not user-friendly."
"Zabbix is not easy to configure, and upgrading is also an issue."
"There are areas of improvement. The database grows really fast. So, when you install Zabbix, you have to deal with some issues, like the database. We become pretty big very fast."
"It could be more stable."
"There are not too much documentation or manuals. We found the tutorials very easy to understand but do not go deep enough in the use of Zabbix. We need more manuals, proper use, documentation, etc."
"The stability could be better."
"The only issue I can note is that it's Linux-based, and Linux documentation is not the best."
"Implementation is always tailored to the customer and the kind of information we need from the client to carry it out can make them very uncomfortable. Sometimes the clients are not ready to share it."
"The reporting is lacking because this is an open-source tool, and nowadays, management's expectation is that the reports should be of high quality and every information should be presented in a concise manner."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It is freeware. We still use the free version of Zabbix."

"We’re using the free version, which covers all our current needs."
