We performed a comparison between Nagios Core and Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The single dashboard is a valuable feature."
"We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"Nagios Core is stable."
"We mostly use Nagios Core to integrate with Python and Bash Script."
"Nagios monitors our servers, so we know if anything goes wrong and can solve the problem before it happens."
"Nagios Core is very configurable. Whatever you want, you can do it."
"Provides timely notifications."
"We use the product to monitor server applications."
"I like that it's very simple to install, easy to manage and deploy, and easy to use for monitoring."
"The most valuable feature depends on the project. It's great if you need to check to ensure a service is running 24/7. I can use the full solution for free, and it's flexible. If I need to add a dashboard, I can integrate it with Nagios. Cloud synchronization is wonderful."
"I find the episode review, glass tables, and correlation search features very useful."
"ITSI's most valuable feature is that it's easy to integrate DLP."
"One of the excellent features is the service analyzer, which is truly impressive."
"The most valuable features are the service analyzer and Glass Tables."
"Our mean time to detect is down to five minutes."
"The solution has been stable."
"Customers have noted the solution helps streamline incident management."
"The modeling required to setup ITSI has been very helpful in providing us a better understanding and a logical view of our services. The modeling is flexible and can be as granular or high level as our needs dictate."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"I would like to see a sensor that shows the traffic of a user and what they're doing on the network."
"Nagios Core does not have a graphic display."
"The tool needs to improve the integrations."
"Making it a little easier to configure and set up from the start would help. There are multiple layers that you have to wade through to be able to set it up, to do it the right way, and to get it to do what you want it to do."
"We're using the free version, which limits us in terms of the things that we can do. If we had the paid version, a lot of our issues would probably go away. For example, we can't isolate instances that are being built or updated with the production ones. When they're being built, on Nagios, they're showing in red. It'd be nice to be able to partition those off until they're all green, and then we can bring them into the environment. This is probably because we've got the free version and not the paid version. If we went for the paid version, it would probably allow us to do exactly what we want to or remove the restrictions that we have, but if we are able to isolate instances in the free version, it would make life much easier."
"There is room for improvement in the graphics."
"The dashboard and monitoring features could be improved."
"Nagios Core could improve by adding a user interface. If you want the user interface you have to use Nagios XI."
"Quality-of-life features have room for improvement."
"I believe the refresh time should be faster."
"Microservices is the only area where Splunk ITSI can be improved. When things come from one EC2 instance to another, there's a lack of exposure to microservices, so we can't know what's happening. Apart from that, it's doing pretty well."
"The solution should integrate more features in NEAP."
"It is pretty okay. I am not sure whether the current release has already moved to the new framework where instead of the glass tables, we can directly use the Dashboard Studio. It would be nice to have that integrated into the same framework."
"Integration is the most critical area to improve in Splunk IT Service Intelligence (ITSI). It wasn't a great experience because you had to do a little back and forth to integrate the solution."
"The cost of the license could be lower."
"Predictive analytics, in terms of preventing incidents before they occur, still needs time to mature."
