"This is a very good solution and it is simple to use, for any company."
"Nagios XI helped me to draw the network and check for system failures."
"The most valuable feature is its support for different types of devices, where it can use all of the equipment that you need."
"Nagios XI helps us monitor the bandwidth of the internet connection, HTTP, DNS, active directory services, and exchange data availability. We have multiple servers to monitor databases, availability of servers, and ping."
"An excellent solution that is easy and intuitive to implement."
"It's great for monitoring IT services infrastructure."
"It's a monitoring agent. It's designed to do one thing. Its most valuable feature is its monitoring."
"Though I downplayed the administrative NCC GUI, this is by far the strongest aspect of the Nagios XI product."
"It is a very valuable tool. It goes out and does a discovery, which is a great process of it. You could have something like a rogue DHCP server, and it will identify it, and then you can see to which switch port it is connected. It is quite an impressive tool. I really liked it because you didn't have to install an agent on anything. It would just go out and do its discovery. For me, that's great."
"Gives us the ability to see our network."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"It can be quite difficult to know which drivers and agents to use when setting up."
"The technical support is variable - sometimes I get answers, but most of my tickets go unanswered."
"I would like a much easier GUI so that I can delete events and logs, which will free up a lot of space."
"I would like to see more customization in the network map because it is a bit tricky to use it."
"The interface could be more user-friendly."
"Nagios XI can improve its GUI for users with a new look."
"The Configuration Wizard needs improvement, because not all vendors are present."
"The reporting structure could be more streamlined."
"Its price can be improved. Their support can also be improved a little bit. In terms of features, it did everything I wanted it to do. With more features, I would have to start installing network agents or something else, and I don't want to have to install anything. This was the value for me about this device."
"I would like a built-in tap feature which doesn't interfere with the network, and it allows you to see what is happening there."
