"What I like about DX Unified Infrastructure Management is that it's a very good product. The feature I found most valuable in the solution is the MCS feature, which is the automatic deployment of the objects you want to monitor. You can set up a system, for example, if it's a Windows machine and I want to test specific devices on it, I could do that through DX Unified Infrastructure Management. That type of deployment is very good because it means you won't miss any monitoring aspect on any server."
"This is a very good solution and it is simple to use, for any company."
"It's a monitoring agent. It's designed to do one thing. Its most valuable feature is its monitoring."
"It is an open-source platform with valuable features for performance and stability."
"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 solution has a lot of plugins and scripts integrated with it."
"The most valuable feature is the dashboard, where I can have a single screen that provides a summary for hundreds of servers."
"Nagios is a custom API manager, and we can expose custom APIs for our integration. This is a great feature."

"We've had issues with pulling reports."
"We would like the navigation of this solution to be more user friendly for our system administrators."

"The technical support is variable - sometimes I get answers, but most of my tickets go unanswered."
"Nagios XI can improve its GUI for users with a new look."
"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 way Nagios displays information isn't easy for a new user to understand. It's not intuitive enough. You need to read some tutorials or be trained to understand what it's displaying. Also, I think it needs more features to improve network visibility because there are some things you can't detect."
"Technical support is an area that needs improvement. It is not available 24/7."
"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."
"The reporting structure could be more streamlined."
