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."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"The single dashboard is a valuable feature."
"There is a good amount of vendor certification which comes with the product. That's all factory-loaded, no need to load any custom-made files. Most of the metrics are calibrated and captured from the devices based on the defaults available from vendor certification."
"The tool helps us understand network performance."
"You can create intelligent alerts so you have enough time to replace the router or interface before it's full. The same is applicable for CBQoS channels."
"Since the implementation of the tool, it has cut down on probably 60% of our outages and letting us know what is going on."
"The out-of-the-box dashboards are valuable, in terms of being able to visualize performance data in ways that we haven't in the past."
"The integration with NetFlow, the NFA solution, so that we can have our flow forensics paired with the SNMP polling performance metrics on the same page."
"One feature I like about CA Performance Management is the certification of the devices."
"When devices are having performance issues, it proactively build dashboards which allow us to go and do health checks, and resolve problems before they become an issue."
"Zabbix helps to save time."
"The flexibility of this solution is amazing."
"There is less computing power needed for scaling."
"The performance and bandwidth are valuable features."
"The most valuable feature is the support for monitoring Cisco switches."
"It meets my organizational needs. It's pretty easy to use."
"The most valuable feature is the protocol to manage anything."
"The solution allows for good integration with other products."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"When it goes through discovery, or whatever it is doing in the back-end that slows it down, sometimes we get some failures with it. "
"It needs role-based administration."
"This solution's implementation process could be quicker. They could also optimize the hardware requirements."
"CA PM can be complex to build and configure. Creating the folders / groups / sites required establishing many rule sets."
"Global synchronization errors. Sometimes it just doesn't finish in time due to the load."
"CA PM Business Hours Filtering: I understand that all monitoring systems have defects. The Business Hours Filtering does not always function properly. Sometimes, when applying business hours to CA PM reports that are 30 or more days in duration, the report generation times out and does not display results. We have other CA PM reports that, when we apply Business Hours Filtering, the report results displayed are the same as without the filter. We are not sure if this is a defect in CA PM or if it is a result of our complex configuration (folder structure) and application of business hours."
"Even though we can see when something is not available, it would also be it would be nice if some sort of alerting took place to that you could know immediately if something went down."
"Product has issue collecting IP SLA data."
"It should be easy to modify the front end."
"Zabbix technical support is sold separately."
"The product could be more secure and more stable."
"The solution needs to add remote features."
"Having a more customizable interface and dashboard would be an improvement."
"Zabbix isn't very good at automation just yet."
"I would like to remotely connect to the computer, and Zabbix doesn't have this capability."
"I think the reporting part of Zabbix can be improved in terms of more user-friendly graphics to display the collected data. Many simple users who don't know how to use Zabbix properly might get confused by the reporting, although at the same time it is very versatile for my company."
