"I can monitor a phone on a desk to very big servers of any company."
"The dashboard allows you to see what's going on in the overall system."

"It's a monitoring agent. It's designed to do one thing. Its most valuable feature is its monitoring."

"Nagios XI is a simple monitoring tool with performance management."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."

"We would like to see automatic network topology."
"We want to see more investment in the UI and the dashboard."
"The company has not kept pace with developments."
"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."
"A useful feature to have would be automatic configuration per standard by new robots that check in for any particular customer."
"There should be wider coverage of storage infrastructure."
"The reporting part should be made simpler. While we can obtain all the reports we need, we always have to create work-arounds to get them."
"The technical support is variable - sometimes I get answers, but most of my tickets go unanswered."
"The Configuration Wizard needs improvement, because not all vendors are present."
"Open-source software is usually not user-friendly."
"It is really difficult to integrate Nagios XI with another system to generate logs and alert our management of failures in security infrastructure."
"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. Also, I think it needs more features to improve network visibility because there are some things you can't detect."
"We'd like to see more integration capabilities."
"The product's stability could be even better."
