Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in IT Infrastructure Monitoring."Since this is an open source technology, if we are capable of writing the plugins in any scripting language, this product allows us to monitor anything we want."
"You want to monitor a specific metric that nobody else has? You can do it even with the most basic of scripting skills, and you can always share it with the vast community of Nagios Exchange."
"Nagios XI is stable."
"The most valuable feature is the dashboard, where I can have a single screen that provides a summary for hundreds of servers."
"The most valuable feature is the monitoring of processes."
"An excellent solution that is easy and intuitive to implement."
"Nagios XI helped me to draw the network and check for system failures."
"I can monitor a software made in-house to software of bigger companies."
"WildFire has been instrumental in blocking a number of new threats, before common desktop anti-virus tools were able to detect them."
"It helps us when segmenting and securing the network and all sort of technologies, all sort of next generation needs. It's next generation phases of firewall like anti-virus, sandboxing, wifi, and VPN."
"Stability is never a concern."
"The solution is easy to use and the Panorama feature is good. The software management or the malware blocking and some authentication management system are good."
"With this product, we receive the best monitoring and reports."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten since we never faced any issues."
"The reporting feature helps our performance."
"It catches modified signatures of known viruses."
"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 can be quite difficult to know which drivers and agents to use when setting up."
"It is really difficult to integrate Nagios XI with another system to generate logs and alert our management of failures in security infrastructure."
"The product's stability could be even better."
"I would like to be able to extend it to all of our data centers, whether they are in the cloud or not. It would be helpful if I could connect everywhere."
"I would like a much easier GUI so that I can delete events and logs, which will free up a lot of space."
"There's room for improvement in the visibility, and in the ability to extract information. Stuff like this should be more simple."
"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."
"Any enhancements should likely be focused on the firewall appliance to further strengthen overall security capabilities, such as refining app and user identity features."
"The product fails to offer protection when dealing with high-severity vulnerabilities, making it an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The automation and responsiveness need improvement."
"The global product feature needs improvement, the VPN, and we need some enhanced features."
"There are some formats that the solution cannot support ."
"High availability features are lacking."
"I don't think it needs to improve anything, except maybe the speed to deploy the changes."
"The system performance degrades after the solution has been deployed for some time. The data that it gives us becomes a little bit slow. When you try to get some data for troubleshooting, it seems like it's working hard to extract that data."
