"Monitors the infrastructure asset and also monitors as an IT service."
"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."
"Having all of our information within one tool set; our alerts, our monitors, and the things that our operations team needs to function."
"It's a monitoring agent. It's designed to do one thing. Its most valuable feature is its monitoring."
"Though I downplayed the administrative NCC GUI, this is by far the strongest aspect of the Nagios XI product."
"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."
"The most useful aspect of this solution is the ability to customize it for the client agent."
"This is a very good solution and it is simple to use, for any company."
"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."

"I can monitor a software made in-house to software of bigger companies."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The biggest feature that I've been hoping they would enhance on is inventory management: things like adding/removing nodes."
"We've had issues with pulling reports."
"How we can get more native information from CA's solutions."
"I think it can be improved by a greater provision of specialized technical support, as there are very few trained personnel there."
"It needs a little bit more functionality in the Admin Console."
"I'd also like to see more probes. More probes in the sense that we were coming across devices that we're expected to monitor and manage for which, out of the box, there isn't a nice, clean solution. There are probes that are dedicated for certain devices and certain device types, which is great. But then there are times we come across nuanced products that we have to develop our own solution for. There are probes that exist in there that allow us to make a customized solution, but it takes a lot more time."
"Currently lacks a mobile application which would be helpful."
"We would like the navigation of this solution to be more user friendly for our system administrators."
"I would like to see more customization in the network map because it is a bit tricky to use it."
"The scalability of Nagios XI is scalable. However, it is not easy to do."
"The product does not have SAP monitoring."
"The Configuration Wizard needs improvement, because not all vendors are present."
"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."
"Nagios XI can improve its GUI for users with a new look."
"I would like to see support for notification via SMS."
"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."
