Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in Network Monitoring Software."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"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."
"We use it to monitor and manage our servers."
"It meets my organizational needs. It's pretty easy to use."
"I really enjoy network traffic triggers that allow us to check traffic threshold from ISP."
"The most valuable feature is the support for monitoring Cisco switches."
"The basic setup is very easy."
"We are able to monitor our virtual infrastructure, virtual machines, windows servers, databases, and the network using a simple network management protocol. We are able to pull almost all the metrics that we want, receive notifications, and have them integrate with telegrams for certain devices that are critical, such as UPSs."
"The solution is stable."
"They've already added extra features, such as noise-canceling and facial recognition, which is great."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"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."
"Zabbix isn't very good at automation just yet."
"If you want to use all of the features then you have to pay a licensing fee."
"Zabbix is not easy to configure, and upgrading is also an issue."
"There are a lot of areas for improvement, specifically in the dashboards and reports functionalities."
"I would like for this solution to be more cloud-friendly."
"There is a bit of a learning curve during installation."
"Zabbix technical support is sold separately."
"The reports are not great and should be improved."
