"The solution is finely stable."
"The integration with the firewall monitoring, the security monitoring, is great."
"You can put all of your work on there, they'll send you an email or send you a text. That functionality as a network engineer is the one I like the most. I do like the fact that we can schedule reports. That works too because that's a lot fewer spreadsheets that I have to create."
"The alerting feature has improved our organization. We can create multiple alerts and refine them to how we need to use them."
"The solution is easy to deploy. It's also easy to manage and monitor the environment. Instead of being reactive, it's proactive."
"The detections are fine when they work."
"The features we found most valuable in ManageEngine OpManager are the probe server and reporting because they're pretty good features."
"The solution has a lot of plugins and scripts integrated with it."
"This is a very good solution and it is simple to use, for any company."
"Nagios XI is a simple monitoring tool with performance management."
"It's great for monitoring IT services infrastructure."

"An excellent solution that is easy and intuitive to implement."
"It is an open-source platform with valuable features for performance and stability."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"There should be an option to get mobile notifications or SMS mirror notifications for critical issues. That way, when we don't have access to email, we can still receive notifications via our phones."
"The two views into the system are very good but could be extended to further customization to fit the need of end users in a variety of roles."
"We would like link monitoring included. At times we need to monitor those specific links closely."
"The pricing of the solution is high. They should work to adjust the pricing model to see if they can help reduce costs."
"The storage level monitoring needs improvement. It needs storage level monitoring on the server itself. That feature is lacking right now."

"There needs to be improvements to make the solution capable of supporting more devices, and it would be good to see an option for automatic deployment."
"I would like a much easier GUI so that I can delete events and logs, which will free up a lot of space."
"Nagios XI can improve network and hardware monitoring, these parameters should be simplified to allow usage for monitoring. Additionally, if there was automatic reporting it would be helpful."
"The interface could be more user-friendly."
"The product does not have SAP monitoring."
"The PNP4Nagios plugin not working easily with XI is an issue for me, because some open source monitoring plugins do not work out of the box. But in the end, you learn to live with it."
"It is really difficult to integrate Nagios XI with another system to generate logs and alert our management of failures in security infrastructure."
"The technical support is variable - sometimes I get answers, but most of my tickets go unanswered."
"Improve the documentation, examples, and best practices, therefore users can understand how to do things."
