We performed a comparison between Sysdig Monitor and Zabbix based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Zabbix, New Relic and others in Cloud Monitoring Software."Docker containers are completely supported, kind of like "first class citizens"."
"The ability to stop/pause and capture logs when something happens is the most valuable feature."
"It has improved our server performance monitoring overall. We know right away when there are problems. It has built-in statistics, so we can go back and see if there's spiking. We can check what's happening every day around the same time and check the configuration to see if there's something that's running and needs to be fixed."
"The performance and bandwidth are valuable features."
"The integration capabilities and APIs are the best part."
"Zabbix has a roadmap and they are continuously and frequently adding new features."
"Our customers also like that they don't have to use multiple modules. Micro Focus and major vendors typically require you to buy several modules and plugins. Our customers do not like that. We offer them a single product for all their monitoring needs."
"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."
"Zabbix is a cost-effective solution. We're a small organization with a few dozen devices to monitor, and it was available for free. We can see what we need. We haven't done an in-depth analysis on it, but we're currently okay with the product."
"It is a great product. The SNMP protocol tracking feature is good. I really like how it tracks SNMP. The alerts are also great."
""Events" reporting (errors, crashes, etc.) is not clear at all in a Mesos environment (i.e., it's not clear what specific container is the one that went down). In a Docker Compose environment, it may be way better."
"It is needs to automate the actions to take when an alert is triggered."
"There are some features of Zabbix that are not good for reporting. The DX Spectrum solution has better reporting."
"The solution needs to add features for finding loopholes or problems and their root causes."
"To improve Zabbix, adding more features to support the monitoring of modern workloads like containers would be beneficial."
"There are a lot of areas for improvement, specifically in the dashboards and reports functionalities."
"Sometimes, the documentation is a little bit written in Estonia – a country in Europe. The language barrier and translation to English can sometimes make it difficult to understand what they're trying to get at. It's just a language thing."
"Look and feel."
"I think the reporting part of Zabbix can be improved in terms of more user-friendly graphics to display the collected data. Many simple users who don't know how to use Zabbix properly might get confused by the reporting, although at the same time it is very versatile for my company."
"I would like to remotely connect to the computer, and Zabbix doesn't have this capability."
