"It's easy to push out across numerous servers. Very scalable."
"You can scale it pretty much however way you want to as long as you have the servers to throw at it."
"It gives an alarm when there's something going on, not just when there's an expected spike that happens every night on a server."
"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 its support for different types of devices, where it can use all of the equipment that you need."
"The most valuable features of Nagios XI are you can customize it based on your use case and requirements. It is flexible and easy to integrate with our systems. You can customize the solution by adding additional features using code."
"The solution is pretty stable."
"An excellent solution that is easy and intuitive to implement."
"Nagios is stable and it's easy to use the monitoring software, which is why we chose this product."
"Nagios XI is stable."
"The solution has a lot of plugins and scripts integrated with it."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"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."
"CA UIM needs some improvement with performance reporting (if we compare it to CA eHealth)."
"We would like the navigation of this solution to be more user friendly for our system administrators."
"In the UMP, certain devices will show up multiple times and they don't correlate correctly. That's one of the issues."
"The UIM has no features through goods and services yet. "
"The company has not kept pace with developments."
"The only challenge that I have with this solution is the reporting part. The users are not really comfortable with the kind of reports they are getting. Sometimes, they want to see reports in their own format. Customizing those reports with Jasper is not very easy. It could be because of the knowledge gap. If you have the knowledge of how Jasper can be configured to suit customer requirements in terms of reporting, it is good. There was a time a customer complained about one issue related to Netflow analysis. Broadcom has a separate model for that, but the customer wanted everything bundled together. It could also have IP management so that I am able to see or analyze IPs so that the IPs that are already in use don't get assigned."
"There should be wider coverage of storage infrastructure."
"The product does not have SAP monitoring."
"Technical support is an area that needs improvement. It is not available 24/7."
"The Configuration Wizard needs improvement, because not all vendors are present."
"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."
"The scalability of Nagios XI is scalable. However, it is not easy to do."
"It can be quite difficult to know which drivers and agents to use when setting up."
"The reporting part should be made simpler. While we can obtain all the reports we need, we always have to create work-arounds to get them."
"I would like to see support for notification via SMS."
