Find out in this report how the two IT Infrastructure Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The stability is very good. I have never had an issue with it over the three years that I have been using it."
"Gives the business interfaces to view real-time pictures of IT business services."
"The most valuable features are the composable structure, infrastructure, and automation."
"We cannot function without this solution. "
"Profile templates: The ability to generate the profiles and lay them down so the servers are built consistently. I would say that's probably the biggest piece of it."
"The solution's initial setup process was easy...The technical support is good...It is a stable product, and we will use it for a long time."
"Deploys faster new virtual services."
"We have the dashboard up on a big screen, and you can actually see when things go wrong or if there are any faults with any of the servers. The backup is automated as well, so the appliance is quite good."
"It has made the life of the network operations staff more proactive in managing the resources of the infrastructure. It prevents disasters long before they can take place."
"Dashboard provides monitor of total assets."
"Alert calls occur anytime a service goes down or a matrix is difficult and that helps us to quickly restore service and transfer work."
"The most valuable feature depends on the project. It's great if you need to check to ensure a service is running 24/7. I can use the full solution for free, and it's flexible. If I need to add a dashboard, I can integrate it with Nagios. Cloud synchronization is wonderful."
"The most valuable feature of Nagios Core is it allows us to develop and add as many plugins as we want."
"The most valuable features are the reports and the way it generates the report in a graphical manner."
"I like the way the solution sends alerts and how it keeps on escalating them."
"Nagios monitors our servers, so we know if anything goes wrong and can solve the problem before it happens."
"The tool doesn't send automated alerts via email...We should be able to receive notification emails when a server or hardware issue arises, which would be helpful if someone is unavailable in the office."
"It's a little slow sometimes. Overall, I think it does what it's supposed to do. I think that as they evolve it, it'll get quicker."
"The solution's console can be improved by making it more user-friendly and adding the capability to filter the reports out using only the information required."
"They can improve reporting and provide more customized reports. Currently, reporting is a bit limited. It can be complex to learn and manage for beginners. Because of my experience, I find it comfortable to manage, which might not be the case with beginners. It would be good if they can make it a little bit easier to understand. They can provide a more graphical view of connectivity and other things. Their technical support can also be improved."
"Specifically, it would be great if we had the ability to reapply the server profile faster."
"It would be better if we can add every HPE device to OneView, such as MSA, as well as the other servers like the DL server and ML server."
"It needs more reporting capabilities."
"We ran into a couple of issues here and there with the baselines for the firmware and not having enough space on the appliance itself to be able to have more than two baselines."
"Nagios Core does not have a graphic display."
"The scalability needs improvement, it's not scalable at this time."
"Nagios Core could improve by adding a user interface. If you want the user interface you have to use Nagios XI."
"The user interface could be more interactive because it is pretty basic."
"The initial setup process could be easier."
"Cloud monitoring is an area for improvement because there aren't too many plugins available."
"Nagios Core is limited in terms of distributed setups, and there is no central view for remote data centers."
"Nagios Core can improve the graphical interface, it would make things a little easier."
