We performed a comparison between Veeam ONE and Zabbix based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution is carefully designed to be easy to use - even if you're in a panic."
"Setting up Veeam is easy, and it's portable, too."
"It is easy to set up initially."
"The solution's customer service is good."
"The best feature of Veeam ONE to me is the infrastructure analysis that you can perform before deploying a backup environment. You can put in your backup requirements, for example, repository files and improvements on your VMware side, to ensure that it runs optimally. Pricing for Veeam ONE is also cheaper than VMware vRealize Operations (vROps) which is a direct competitor in the ops space, so this is another advantage of the solution."
"It has been useful for monitoring, troubleshooting, and assessing our environment, as well as for investigating bottlenecks."
"The installation is pretty straightforward."
"For me, the most important feature is alerting."
"It provides high scalability, alerting, notification, templating, and end-to-end security."
"The integration capabilities and APIs are the best part."
"During my testing, the features that I like the most are that it can be integrated with my system, and it provides me with reports of all of my servers."
"It's a very reliable platform and we've never had any issues regarding the scalability or the stability of Zabbix."
"It has an intuitive UI with beautiful graphs and customizable maps."
"I'm supervising all the IT departments, and Zabbix seems quite good for them. It provides graphics and information in real time. We get alerts about crashes on the system, enabling us to quickly repair issues. We can easily find devices with problems."
"In terms of customization and integration, we have more flexibility. We can automate configurations, define deletion rules, and customize based on the needs. The client interface allows for further configuration, making it quite comprehensive."
"We use it to monitor and manage our servers."
"The pricing is very high."
"When you have to renew the licenses you sometimes have some trouble getting rid of the old one and reassigning it to the new one. That's an aspect that could run smoother and could be better."
"The solution could improve the performance. We are not able to check the status of any system. Additionally, if there was an option to monitor server clusters it would be helpful."
"Agent backups could be better. I have many problems with agent backups, particularly on Linux and MySQL databases. MySQL works well with Microsoft products but not with other products. The database backups are not working correctly, and we are losing business. I am not getting any support; administration is also a significant problem."
"The user experience can be better, as it is one of the areas with shortcomings in the product."
"The reports are basic and not customizable, making it challenging to get detailed insights."
"For our company's usage, the price of the product is considered to be one of the major drawbacks because we have a lot of infrastructure, and its services don't fit well with our needs."
"I've never considered what improvements Veeam needs, and I haven't asked our customers if there is any room for improvement. As the manager, I only see the reports."
"It should be easy to modify the front end."
"To improve Zabbix, adding more features to support the monitoring of modern workloads like containers would be beneficial."
"I am having difficulties connecting it to Grafana, as well as some of the other plugins like Kibana."
"Its UI needs to be improved a little bit more so that an end-user is also able to handle it. I can handle it, but others should also be able to handle it in a better way. It becomes complex when we are growing and need to add proxies. We need more scalability features and documentation for different use cases. A lot of articles are available, but they need to be in proper documentation. For example, when you have thousands of servers that have to be monitored in different regions of the world, there should be some kind of documentation to describe how you can create proxies and add them. Sometimes, when you are using the database, it can get overloaded. When the network is growing, the number of transactions becomes very high, and the database gets overloaded. There should be information about how to reduce the load on the MySQL database, which is what Zabbix is using. The market is growing a lot, and it should be enhanced for a lot more things. We are currently bringing enhancements at our end for different use cases. For example, when dockerization is going on, how can we check the logs inside the Dockers. We should also be able to monitor and check the number of logins and add features such as SSO login and two-factor authentication as a protocol. These are the security features and concerns that we have to deal with. Currently, we are developing modules to add features to Zabbix, but they should also work on these features."
"The reports are not great and should be improved."
"The stability could be better."
"The product delivers false positives during reporting because of flapping. Other reasonably priced alternatives may have better performance."
"There's a small module of APM, however, it is not an enhanced version. People usually ask for a full-fledged APM solution."
