We performed a comparison between Splunk On-Call and Zabbix based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about PagerDuty, Atlassian, Everbridge and others in IT Alerting and Incident Management."The alert calling feature is the best because notifications are delivered via phone messages."
"The flexible schedule is the most valuable feature. It was very easy to set out a rotation."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is helpdesk escalation."
"Transmogrifier and automatic solution report gives me a report with the solution and the way to solve issues when an error occurred."
"VictorOps has been good enough for us and it's effective for our needs in case of an on-call escalation process."
"The initial setup was not complex."
"It's a very reliable platform and we've never had any issues regarding the scalability or the stability of Zabbix."
"Zabbix is both stable and scalable."
"There is less computing power needed for scaling."
"There is a problems page that shows us every warning or problem that occurs on our VMs globally. The map screen is also really useful because this is something that was missing. I don't know every other tool in the market. So, I don't know if this is a good point of only Zabbix, or other tools are also doing it, but from my point of view, this is the most useful page that I use, along with the problems page that efficiently lists the problem, recovery time, ending hours, starting hours, and so on."
"We have found that Zabbix is more easy to use than other applications."
"The most valuable feature is the alert and alarm monitoring."
"The most valuable features in Zabbix are those that help us overcome bottlenecks in CPU usage, as well as reduce memory delay. I know that we have only reached the tip of the iceberg of what Zabbix's features can do for us, and we have not used all of them yet."
"At that stage, all our needs are fulfilled, but at the beginning, we had some feature requests and they were deployed during their roadmap."
"Should have more YouTube webinars."
"There could be improvements with communicating an incident or alert."
"The solution can be improved by including a wider list of permissions."
"The third-party configuration tool could be easier to use."
"Zabbix claims that there is an auto-discovery process but my team member was facing difficulty and was told that it's not really automatic, and there are some manual steps."
"We would like to monitor other touchpoints such as ATM machines. It would be great if it can provide monitoring of ATM machines. Compatibility with other products would also be great."
"The user interface could be a bit better. They could update it a bit."
"The integration of the product is not so easy, especially when it comes to the application database."
"We had some scalability issues with a large number of nodes."
"I would like for this solution to be more cloud-friendly."
"Implementing Zabbix is difficult. I've deployed many solutions over the years, and Zabbix is the hardest to implement. You have to do some development to get it to work with IBM, Micro Focus, or HP products."
"Look and feel."
