We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We can monitor multiple sites using the product.""The initial setup of Checkmk was easy...It is a very stable solution.""The most valuable features of Checkmk are its resource monitoring, infra monitoring, and log factor configuration.""It's versatile, scalable, and easier to use compared to other solutions like Nagios and OMD.""I really like the auto-discovery feature.""The most valuable feature of the solution is that it has a lot of different pieces, and they all work together...It is a very scalable solution. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."

"The solution's customer service is good.""I have found the most valuable feature to be the configuration and ease of use.""The most beneficial aspect of Veeam ONE is the ability to track your company's growth on a month-to-month basis. With this tool, you can determine if you need to purchase more target storage or if you have enough. This is essential for budgeting purposes, as, without this information, you may discover too late that you require additional storage or that your cloud usage is not aligning with what you are being charged. Veeam ONE aids in forecasting and usage analysis, making it a valuable asset.""I like the backup and backup copy features.""The best feature of Veeam ONE to me is the infrastructure analysis that you can perform before deploying a backup environment. You can put in your backup requirements, for example, repository files and improvements on your VMware side, to ensure that it runs optimally. Pricing for Veeam ONE is also cheaper than VMware vRealize Operations (vROps) which is a direct competitor in the ops space, so this is another advantage of the solution.""The solution is carefully designed to be easy to use - even if you're in a panic.""The most valuable features are the notifications, which give us failure alerts for some infrastructure within the backup, and the reporting is excellent.""Setting up Veeam is easy, and it's portable, too."

Cons
"It is easy for tech-savvy people, but newcomers might find it intimidating.""I think that the integration and the exporting of the data collected are areas where Checkmk lacks but should try to improve the most.""If an alert is generated for a specific pattern in the log, and if Checkmk catches that log, it will stay there even after the alert is resolved.""In Checkmk, the documentation can probably be improved a bit more.""The initial setup is a bit complex.""Sometimes we receive alerts, and it can become annoying when you acknowledge an alert. It is very clunky when you acknowledge the alert. The process is not very intuitive, and there are instances where it feels a bit cumbersome to acknowledge an alert."

More Checkmk Cons →

"Veeam ONE could be improved if it had a better data recovery feature.""I've never considered what improvements Veeam needs, and I haven't asked our customers if there is any room for improvement. As the manager, I only see the reports.""It would be better if the solution presented the number of servers and the success rate on the dashboard.""For our company's usage, the price of the product is considered to be one of the major drawbacks because we have a lot of infrastructure, and its services don't fit well with our needs.""Veeam One has its ransomware monitoring, but it's based on static parameters.""One common customer complaint is that Veeam, not just Veeam ONE, has become increasingly complex over time. This means that it is now very feature-rich, which can be challenging for some users to navigate and understand. There is a need for more education on how to use the GUI and all of the available features. Even regular users of Veeam may struggle to utilize the new features, which makes it more challenging for backup administrators to manage their backups. The platform is not becoming simpler, but rather, it is becoming more complicated over time.""The solution could improve the performance. We are not able to check the status of any system. Additionally, if there was an option to monitor server clusters it would be helpful.""When you have to renew the licenses you sometimes have some trouble getting rid of the old one and reassigning it to the new one. That's an aspect that could run smoother and could be better."
