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."Due to the infrastructure's size, the introduction they offer is very, very useful. It helps with an overall understanding of the product."
"It is a comprehensive, end-to-end solution for managing database consolidation, something that has been missing and difficult to do."
"There are a number of different user interfaces you can choose from."
"We can manage everything in our environment."
"It's a useful feature to be able to see the top SQL, the number of executions, the CPU, and the resources that it's using."
"I have found the singular GUI feature very helpful. Fewer DBA resources can be allocated with Toad licenses."
"The most valuable features of Oracle Enterprise Manager are the data guide and online monitoring."
"It's user friendly."
"Its overall flexibility is most valuable. When our customers have some custom applications that are not necessarily covered by the community or a standard monitoring tool, we use Zabbix to build our own modules with our own templates. This feature has been useful in using Zabbix for infrastructure and IT monitoring. It has also been useful for industrial equipment monitoring. Zabbix is very lightweight. It is efficient in terms of performance because it doesn't use a lot of resources."
"Zabbix is good for discovery."
"The most valuable features are the monitoring and the ease with which we can set it up at customer sites with our custom Zabbix proxy and tools."
"The features I found most valuable are the user interface and a wide range of network devices that are easy to configure."
"Simple network monitoring that is easy to install and manage."
"It is a great product. The SNMP protocol tracking feature is good. I really like how it tracks SNMP. The alerts are also great."
"The most valuable feature is that it provides network segregation for server monitoring."
"The overall functionality of Zabbix is very good. The monitoring of bank applications that Zabbix provides is great. The information is displayed on a dashboard that is easily viewed."
"In my opinion, rather than a younger DBA, think the user interface could be improved."
"The solution is considered expensive."
"The user interface is not very interactive. It needs improvement."
"The product is pretty comprehensive, but quite resource hungry. This might be due to the majority of the application seemingly being written in Java."
"The fact that Oracle Enterprise Manager is an expensive solution is a matter of concern and needs to be considered for improvement."
"I would like to see better pricing."
"Improving the integration speed would be beneficial, as the current Java-based system can sometimes result in slow responses."
"The solution has a very large resource system. It's too big. There are too many items."
"The only improvement I would suggest, revolves around its AI and ML capabilities."
"There's a small module of APM, however, it is not an enhanced version. People usually ask for a full-fledged APM solution."
"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."
"Look and feel."
"Documentation terminology could be improved."
"The solution needs to add features for finding loopholes or problems and their root causes."
"The reports are not great and should be improved."
"The performance reporting could be improved."
