Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Icinga has multiple automation and integration features. There is an API for everything and a web UI for configurations. The APIs enable you to automate tasks in Icinga. We can also use plugins to talk to the API. The Icinga Director talks to a database in the background, and you can import settings from the CMDB to all systems in Icinga.""We have found the solution to be stable.""The drafts are easy but what I like about Icinga is that there are many add-ons that you can download.""The ability to customize scripts and build your own queries to request information from the infrastructure elements you want to monitor. This level of personalization and customization is highly appreciated.""I like the ability to amend and adjust things really easily, which is useful in a case where you could make it auto-discover and then set a template to say all of these applications or servers under this template have an automatic threshold set that you’d set up manually.""The best thing about the solution is how it highlights errors, the issues, and what needs my attention. The solution directs me to areas that I should look for first.""Icinga does the job and is fairly stable.""The value of Icinga is that it has hundreds of plugins, so it's really easy to monitor pretty much anything."

"The most valuable features are the notifications, which give us failure alerts for some infrastructure within the backup, and the reporting is excellent.""The solution is really easy and straightforward to use.""I like the backup and backup copy features.""The product is very straightforward and very easy to use from the client-side.""The tool is a stable backup solution.""One valuable feature of Veeam ONE for backup management is its dashboard, which offers a comprehensive view of backups and other essential data.""Veeam One is a centralized management and centralized reporting tool. The tool has supportive infrastructure to create specialised applications and some server application. You can add all the resources and infrastructure. You will get the reports, can easily manage and monitor any feature.""I think Veeam ONE is great as it is, it does everything I need."

Cons
"There is room for improvement in multi-tenancy. It's not perfect, not even really good. It's average, but it should be improved.""Icinga’s automation could be improved.""At this time, the layout of the website is a bit difficult. It should be more user-friendly for changing the background and logos.""In general, the product does not look good. However, it does what it is supposed to do. So, the improvements should focus on usability and UI.""It needs Trap SNMP. I saw the documentation for Zabbix, that it has its own built-in product which handles SNMP traps, and there's nothing similar in Icinga or Nagios. I think this feature is most important for me.""The tool currently fails to provide notifications to users.""The installation and configuration are very complex.""We have found some problems with Nagios, and support isn't very responsive."

More Icinga Cons →

"Backup management features are crucial for ensuring the reliability and automation of backup processes.""The pricing is very high.""It's not that easy to use from the management side.""Veeam ONE should improve its UI.""We'd like to see them add more custom templates.""Sometimes, it's a little difficult for me to use its user interface. Its scope is very big with a lot of tuning, settings, and so on. If it's difficult for me, it must also be difficult for our customers.""I think Veeam ONE should be included in the base product instead of as an add-on because customers tend to look for simple solutions that are integrated.""It would be great if Veeam ONE had a business hour reporting feature because sometimes a client would want to know what workers do during business hours and outside of business hours. This type of report will give you the added benefit when you're scaling up and scaling down in the cloud, for example, if I wanted to swap hot and cold storage during specific hours to save on cost. Business hour reporting in Veeam ONE will give you a lot of benefits and added value. Scalability needs to be improved in the solution."
