Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in IT Infrastructure Monitoring."The product's initial setup is easy."
"It can send messages to our ticketing system."
"The most valuable feature is the alert and alarm monitoring."
"It's a very reliable platform and we've never had any issues regarding the scalability or the stability of Zabbix."

"It not only provides the preconfigured item monitoring feature, but it is also easy to configure custom items."
"The most valuable feature is that it provides network segregation for server monitoring."
"The solution allows you to configure and customize how you want to collect information from servers or other systems."
"It is a great product. The SNMP protocol tracking feature is good. I really like how it tracks SNMP. The alerts are also great."
"Instana Infrastructure Monitoring needs to support monitoring of the .NET framework since it is one of the areas where the solution currently has shortcomings."
"The user web interface is a little bit too basic, we need to link Zabbix to Grafana to have more options, such as graphs and charts. The interface needs to be improved. Additionally, there could be better integration with Grafana API."
"I want Zabbix to improve the UX/UI. Zabbix doesn't use a JavaScript chart for images, and I want them to improve this."
"We had some scalability issues with a large number of nodes."
"In an upcoming release, there should be automated reports which we are currently doing manually. For example, if we collect a report file every day and want to send it to a moderator for review. We are expecting this feature to come out soon but it would be valuable to have now."
"An area for improvement would be the ease of doing aggregation from the value or different devices."
"Zabbix claims that there is an auto-discovery process but my team member was facing difficulty and was told that it's not really automatic, and there are some manual steps."

"The stability could be better."
