"Great customized dashboards and drill down reports with auto serve analytics."
"Great out-of-the-box capability."
"This solution allows us to have an overview of the infrastructure and identify areas where the performance isn't optimal, or where upgrades could be carried out."
"You can integrate clouds, hybrid infrastructure, and on-premise infrastructure into one product."
"It is very scalable."
"The real value is our being able to pull all the historic data that we need in order to gather every little metric and nuanced piece of information from a given device, a given piece of infrastructure, in order for us to generate alerts."
"Latest version of tool comes integrated with Jaspersoft reporting solution, giving excellent reports."
"The benefit is easy installation. Thus, the model approach of the product and out-of-the-box probes, which deliver direct value."
"Nagios XI is stable."
"Nagios XI helps us monitor the bandwidth of the internet connection, HTTP, DNS, active directory services, and exchange data availability. We have multiple servers to monitor databases, availability of servers, and ping."
"BPI: It allows defining peripherals to map business criticality for efficient monitoring, as required."
"Nagios XI helped me to draw the network and check for system failures."
"It's great for monitoring IT services infrastructure."
"Nagios is a custom API manager, and we can expose custom APIs for our integration. This is a great feature."
"The features I've found the most useful are the plug-ins, the fact that you can connect almost everything to it. That's very useful."
"The most useful aspect of this solution is the ability to customize it for the client agent."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"There should be wider coverage of storage infrastructure."
"The other element is that there are no real templates, out of the box. Let's go with an example where we do have the probe, which is great, and we do have a really nuanced customer with a small set of devices that maybe not a lot of other customers use. There might not be a template in place, so effectively we have the tool in front of us but we still need to develop a solution. So it would be really nice to see a little bit more of something like a central repository of templates that we could use. That would help us expedite our onboarding process."
"Making a GUI with criteria such as selection by robot/hub/probe etc."
"How we can get more native information from CA's solutions."
"The biggest feature that I've been hoping they would enhance on is inventory management: things like adding/removing nodes."
"We have experienced challenges with finding a mechanism to deploy the agents, but it's only on the first deployment so it's not a big issue."
"There is also room for improvement in the reporting. It is not really good enough, according to our customers. So what we now usually do is use Power BI to get them the kinds of reports they want."
"The dashboards need to be improved."
"I would like to see more customization in the network map because it is a bit tricky to use it."
"The interface could be more user-friendly."
"Nagios XI can improve its GUI for users with a new look."
"The product could be optimized to improve the administrative user experience via the Nagios Core Configuration (NCC) GUI module."
"The scalability of Nagios XI is scalable. However, it is not easy to do."
"The product does not have SAP monitoring."
"Technical support is an area that needs improvement. It is not available 24/7."
"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."
