"What needs improvement in Versa Director is maturity because, from an operating point of view, it's not mature enough. You'll still need to do a lot of research on Versa Director, so if it could mature faster, that would be very good."
"The stability could be better."
"The APM monitoring has room for improvement, although I hear that the new 5.2 version has some improvements in that area, and I'd like to give that a go. I would like to see a few more templates out there for different styles of monitoring. I use the Grafana interface for reporting. I would also like it to have an out-of-the-box ability to email reports. You can create reports, but to be able to email those reports would be really helpful. I've got users who are not interested in logging in and generating a report. They want it all pre-canned and sent to an email address. It would also be really handy if we could pin certain reports up onto platforms such as Teams or SharePoint. A GUI for the proxy server would be cool to have for debugging purposes and for the support teams to have a look at, but I don't know whether that's really feasible to do. I get enough from the log files themselves."
"To improve Zabbix, adding more features to support the monitoring of modern workloads like containers would be beneficial."
"Zabbix is not easy to configure, and upgrading is also an issue."
"The only improvement I would suggest, revolves around its AI and ML capabilities."
"Zabbix can use better documentation and support for troubleshooting."
"If you want to use all of the features then you have to pay a licensing fee."
"If Zabbix had a better dashboard then it would be nice."
