Find out in this report how the two IT Infrastructure Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature of Avantra is automation. The reduction of manual work and having them automated is one of the top reasons why I would use it."
"You can customize alerts based on need."
"It's very easy to manage and use."
"I like the way the solution sends alerts and how it keeps on escalating them."
"Our customers like that Nagios Core is an open source solution. It can be customized to our customers' specific needs."
"The application performance monitoring feature is valuable."
"Other products are good but from the configuration point of view Nagios is really very lightweight. The price is really good in my opinion. Another important thing is that my Nagios engine still works with Dual core 8GB ram for the last 10 years."
"It is fairly easy to set up, and we can monitor pretty much everything we want to."
"Key features include the GUI interface, its notification capabilities, and the real-time reporting."
"I like that it's very simple to install, easy to manage and deploy, and easy to use for monitoring."
"We use the product to monitor server applications."
"The machine-learning is lacking and should be improved."
"We are currently exploring automation options for various areas, and Avantra should consider implementing automation for change request management, an area they have not yet ventured into. While Avantra is currently excelling in monitoring and system refreshes, there is scope for improvement in automating change request management. In addition to primarily focusing on SAP, Avantra currently performs kernel patches which are core SAP patches. However, exploring more into OS patching could be another potential area for Avantra to expand its automation capabilities."
"The dashboard needs to improve."
"I would like to see more training videos."
"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."
"The tool needs to improve the integrations."
"It's not that easy to install the product itself. Also, the UI is a bit hard for regular users to navigate through."
"The initial setup process could be easier."
"Nagios Core is limited in terms of distributed setups, and there is no central view for remote data centers."
"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."
"Bandwidth monitoring is the pain point for me because Nagios Core does not monitor bandwidth effectively like Cacti does."
