Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The single dashboard is a valuable feature."
"We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"It helps us a lot for monitoring our servers in one console, instead of going to individual servers."
"The features we found most valuable in ManageEngine OpManager are the probe server and reporting because they're pretty good features."
"Defining thresholds and other alerting criteria is fairly simple and would not require a lot of training. This is very useful if you are managing a large environment."
"Some of the most valuable features are the accessibility of the solution and the fact that it is simpler than other products. For example, discovering devices in the network is very simple, making it user-friendly."
"The setup was easy."
"The detections are fine when they work."
"The integration with the firewall monitoring, the security monitoring, is great."
"The most valuable feature is the network-related reporting."
"Provides timely notifications."
"We mostly use Nagios Core to integrate with Python and Bash Script."
"Nagios Core is stable."
"What I like about Nagios Core is that it helps me ensure everything is running smoothly by checking the status of hosts and services."
"We use the product to monitor server applications."
"Nagios monitors our servers, so we know if anything goes wrong and can solve the problem before it happens."
"The most valuable feature of Nagios Core is it allows us to develop and add as many plugins as we want."
"The notifications are definitely one of the most valuable features of Nagios Core. We know what to look for and what to expect when things are down."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The dashboard could include more features."
"ManageEngine OpManager could improve by having a better cloud presence."
"We would like the solution's customize and build functionality to be more user-friendly."
"The pricing of the solution is high. They should work to adjust the pricing model to see if they can help reduce costs."
"The solution is a bit difficult to configure. There are quite a number of configurations and plugins that you must handle early in the process."
"I would like to see more enhancements made to the product."
"We get a lot of false alerts."
"The licensing model is confusing."
"We're using the free version, which limits us in terms of the things that we can do. If we had the paid version, a lot of our issues would probably go away. For example, we can't isolate instances that are being built or updated with the production ones. When they're being built, on Nagios, they're showing in red. It'd be nice to be able to partition those off until they're all green, and then we can bring them into the environment. This is probably because we've got the free version and not the paid version. If we went for the paid version, it would probably allow us to do exactly what we want to or remove the restrictions that we have, but if we are able to isolate instances in the free version, it would make life much easier."
"Cloud monitoring is an area for improvement because there aren't too many plugins available."
"Would benefit from aggregations if a particular server goes down."
"Making it a little easier to configure and set up from the start would help. There are multiple layers that you have to wade through to be able to set it up, to do it the right way, and to get it to do what you want it to do."
"Nagios Core can improve the graphical interface, it would make things a little easier."
"It would be nice if the company offered a sales or contract manager that was dedicated to our company so that we would have some sort of link to Nagios, and if we had issues or questions, we'd be able to contact them directly."
"I would like to see a sensor that shows the traffic of a user and what they're doing on the network."
"I believe Nagios Core will need to provide an option for big data platforms in the future."
