"We have experienced challenges with finding a mechanism to deploy the agents, but it's only on the first deployment so it's not a big issue."
"The UIM has no features through goods and services yet. "
"We've had issues with pulling reports."
"Currently lacks a mobile application which would be helpful."
"I would like to see more customization in the network map because it is a bit tricky to use it."
"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."
"The technical support is variable - sometimes I get answers, but most of my tickets go unanswered."
"The product's stability could be even better."
"The product does not have SAP monitoring."
"I would like to be able to extend it to all of our data centers, whether they are in the cloud or not. It would be helpful if I could connect everywhere."

"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.
