We performed a comparison between Oracle Enterprise Manager and Zabbix based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Server Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature is the monitoring because it's very useful for checking and troubleshooting compared with other products, like Nagios for example, that have some interaction with Oracle."
"The job subsystem, monitoring subsystem, alerting, grouping of targets, and reporting features are valuable to us."
"I mostly use the top events, and look at how the execution is happening on the database; and monitoring the cluster level rates. I even look at the execution plan."
"The tried and tested services that Oracle provides is second to none."
"We can manage everything in our environment."
"It is the best monitoring tool for Oracle databases."
"It is a stable solution...The initial setup of Oracle Enterprise Manager was straightforward."
"Oracle Enterprise Manager triggers critical alerts."
"There is less computing power needed for scaling."
"The best thing about Zabbix is the integration and the APIs that are included are very fast"
"Health and communication links availability."
"It not only provides the preconfigured item monitoring feature, but it is also easy to configure custom items."
"The features I found most valuable are the user interface and a wide range of network devices that are easy to configure."
"The solution's design has recently changed and it is visually pleasing with more color, for example, there is blue, black, and white."
"The solution allows for good integration with other products."
"It can send messages to our ticketing system."
"The product must improve its support team."
"The solution’s stability could be improved."
"I rate Oracle Enterprise Manager six out of 10 for affordability. It's expensive."
"We have encountered performance issues when the load is huge."
"The solution is not as simple as people say it is."
"The tool is expensive."
"I would like to improve the cost."
"It needs to support the Database versions lower than 10.2."
"I would like to better be able to monitor Oracle processes."
"The stability could be better."
"In the next release, I'm hoping for features targeted towards larger users with more customizable options. Despite this, I think pre-canned reports that can be used straight out of the box would be beneficial rather than having to configure each report individually. Additionally, a deeper dive into software configurations on the machines would be useful, although I understand there may be challenges in implementing this due to scripting requirements. More documentation would also be appreciated."
"There are some features of Zabbix that are not good for reporting. The DX Spectrum solution has better reporting."
"Look and feel."
"It would be helpful if they translated the documentation to Cyrillic languages."
"Zabbix can use better documentation and support for troubleshooting."
"The dashboard and the graph section could be a little bit more professional."
