"The most valuable feature for us was the ability to monitor sites and get a nice overview of all the data in a single view."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"They need more documentation for the plugins."
"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."
"The product uses the backend as Perl and could be modified to a more lightweight solution like what's being offered by other vendors."
"It can be quite difficult to know which drivers and agents to use when setting up."
"It is really difficult to integrate Nagios XI with another system to generate logs and alert our management of failures in security infrastructure."

"There's room for improvement in the visibility, and in the ability to extract information. Stuff like this should be more simple."
"One area that could be improved is the reporting features. In the version transformation from ten to eleven, the platform changed from a Windows-based platform to a Linux-based platform. As a result, the previous reporting feature using Crystal Reports was no longer available. Instead, we had to generate PDF dashboard reports, which were not as flexible."
