"We use the solution to meet the needs of the customer."
"Good end-to-end monitoring"
"It is a great product. The SNMP protocol tracking feature is good. I really like how it tracks SNMP. The alerts are also great."
"Its overall flexibility is most valuable. When our customers have some custom applications that are not necessarily covered by the community or a standard monitoring tool, we use Zabbix to build our own modules with our own templates. This feature has been useful in using Zabbix for infrastructure and IT monitoring. It has also been useful for industrial equipment monitoring. Zabbix is very lightweight. It is efficient in terms of performance because it doesn't use a lot of resources."
"Health and communication links availability."
"The basic setup is very easy."
"The solution is stable."
"The most valuable feature is the support for monitoring Cisco switches."

"The networking monitor is not too easy to work with."
"Zabbix isn't very good at automation just yet."
"We had some scalability issues with a large number of nodes."
"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."
"Implementing Zabbix is difficult. I've deployed many solutions over the years, and Zabbix is the hardest to implement. You have to do some development to get it to work with IBM, Micro Focus, or HP products."
"If you want to use all of the features then you have to pay a licensing fee."
"The graphical user interface could be customized a little bit more, and also the dashboard could be more friendly."
"Zabbix is not easy to configure, and upgrading is also an issue."
