Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"I recall the initial setup being straightforward."
"You can integrate clouds, hybrid infrastructure, and on-premise infrastructure into one product."
"Monitoring infrastructure and business applications are the most valuable features."
"I definitely appreciate the flexibility and ease of use. We've been using UIM for almost three years now. It's pretty much point and click, very easy to use. And we've had no problems scaling it to our own environment."
"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."
"Great out-of-the-box capability."
"The feature that we've found to be very helpful is the way the solution categorizes the devices to identify groups, groups of devices and clusters. This allows us to be aware of their position within the topology."
"The installation is no problem. I've installed Nagios several times."
"I can monitor a phone on a desk to very big servers of any company."
"Nagios XI is stable."
"The dashboard allows you to see what's going on in the overall system."
"The most valuable feature is the monitoring of processes."
"The most valuable feature is its support for different types of devices, where it can use all of the equipment that you need."
"It's a monitoring agent. It's designed to do one thing. Its most valuable feature is its monitoring."
"The ability to set up templates and groups of checks, as well as customize the checks themselves."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"Stability."
"A useful feature to have would be automatic configuration per standard by new robots that check in for any particular customer."
"It is a little complex to use versus other softwares."
"It needs a little bit more functionality in the Admin Console."
"They need to continue to advance the filter capabilities, and provide more input fields."
"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."
"The company has not kept pace with developments."
"It would be good to implement views showing the aggregated status graphically."
"The pricing has recently risen. I know they've changed what is covered under the license, however, it doesn't change the way we use it and adds nothing to our experience, and yet we now have to pay more."
"They need more documentation for the plugins."
"We'd like to see more integration capabilities."
"The interface could be more user-friendly."
"The technical support is variable - sometimes I get answers, but most of my tickets go unanswered."
"I would like to see support for notification via SMS."
"It is really difficult to integrate Nagios XI with another system to generate logs and alert our management of failures in security infrastructure."
"Technical support is an area that needs improvement. It is not available 24/7."
