Find out in this report how the two Server Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."There are a number of different user interfaces you can choose from."
"This solution allows us to quickly drill down when there are issues."
"The tried and tested services that Oracle provides is second to none."
"Some of the most valuable features are its real-time performance view/dashboard, metric history, real-time monitoring and alerts, as well as quick access to Oracle's tuning and diagnostic options."
"I mostly use the top events, and look at how the execution is happening on the database; and monitoring the cluster level rates. I even look at the execution plan."
"The most valuable features are security and speed."
"The most valuable features of Oracle Enterprise Manager are the data guide and online monitoring."
"I like that it's stable."
"The most valuable features in Zabbix are those that help us overcome bottlenecks in CPU usage, as well as reduce memory delay. I know that we have only reached the tip of the iceberg of what Zabbix's features can do for us, and we have not used all of them yet."
"We value the auto-host discovery, template import, bulk import/export features. Newer versions also add nice features, such as multi-IP per host."
"It provides high scalability, alerting, notification, templating, and end-to-end security."
"The most valuable feature is the monitoring of virtual machines."
"The performance and bandwidth are valuable features."
"We use it to monitor and manage our servers."
"The most valuable feature is the protocol to manage anything."
"The initial setup was very quick. The first time it was long because I didn't know it yet. I was only using Windows. The first time was very difficult because of the operating system."
"The solution’s pricing could be improved."
"We would like to have a single dashboard for monitoring and controlling all of our products."
"The solution's agents work with Java, and the Java code sometimes consumes a lot of memory on the CPU."
"Oracle Enterprise Manager could improve the monitoring types and the graphics."
"I would like to improve the cost."
"The solution is considered expensive."
"It is complicated to run it on Google Chrome."
"The fact that Oracle Enterprise Manager is an expensive solution is a matter of concern and needs to be considered for improvement."
"Zabbix isn't a great tool for cloud-specific monitoring - its connection to public clouds needs to be improved. Other areas for improvement would be the lack of dashboards and integrations."
"The performance reporting could be improved."
"Look and feel."
"They should open an SSH session from the web interface."
"If Zabbix had a better dashboard then it would be nice."
"Even though it’s such a powerful monitoring system, it would be more helpful if it had a flexible UI."
"We would like to see the addition of automatic push functionality to this product. This would save time when monitoring our servers and networks as, at present, we have to manually install the Zabbix agent on any hardware to be monitored."
"Zabbix is not easy to configure, and upgrading is also an issue."
