Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution is pretty generic and easy to use.""The solution is very secure.""The AI capabilities of Mist Wireless are superior to other OEMs.""You can easily monitor, manage, and cover all your IT equipment.""The most valuable feature of Juniper Mist is the Virtual Network Assistant, powered by artificial intelligence.""It provides private network access, helping us protect our company’s devices.""The artificial intelligence feature is very good.""Overall, we've been very pleased with the performance."

More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Pros →

"Ability to control the access points by groups.""Multi PSK (Pre-shared Key) is a very good feature in the solution...Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.""The triangulation feature can be used to determine where a person is in relation to the access point.""The AI deployment process involves adding access points and placing them in the designated area. The AI system automatically adjusts channel selection and transmission power without any issues with stability or throughput. It has improved network performance.""The Marvis feature of Mist AI, an artificial intelligence tool, is very useful.""Mist AI and Cloud have definitely improved the functioning of our organization. The access to the Internet, including its speed and reliability, has significantly improved.""Mist AI and Cloud is the best solution I have seen in the industry, especially from the artificial intelligence perspective, as it helps businesses.""If you compare wired versus wireless, it's convenient. You don't need to have one place for connectivity. You can move around and it's easier. Sometimes it's a hassle to work with wires, which is why wireless is so convenient."

More Mist AI and Cloud Pros →

"Zabbix has a roadmap and they are continuously and frequently adding new features.""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.""I really enjoy network traffic triggers that allow us to check traffic threshold from ISP.""The initial setup, while not simple, is easier than other products.""Zabbix is good for discovery.""The integration capabilities and APIs are the best part.""Our customers also like that they don't have to use multiple modules. Micro Focus and major vendors typically require you to buy several modules and plugins. Our customers do not like that. We offer them a single product for all their monitoring needs.""The level of discovery-based configuration that lets us auto-configure the monitoring for various systems is a valuable feature."

More Zabbix Pros →

Cons
"The pricing should be made cheaper.""There is room for improvement in terms of support and installation.""If you want to do more specific stuff, it's a bit limited.""It would be helpful to have even stronger security features to help protect against interference from other nearby access points that aren't part of our network.""Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) could improve if the MIST platform had a built-in master key. This would be an advantage.""They should include SD-WAN features to it.""The product should include adaptive Wi-Fi to show a more accurate location.""The pricing is very high in the Indian market."

More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Cons →

"There are some technical issues that may require attention""Juniper should integrate all their dashboards instead of having separate dashboards...Since it lacks the integration of dashboards, Juniper needs to improve it.""Configuration could be improved.""Currently, the solution lacks the ability to configure with other solutions from other vendors.""There could be more integration.""The solution has various licensing policies. It will be easy to use if it is an open single license.""Sometimes it takes a lot of time for the access point to connect with the cloud.""Mist AI and Cloud need to improve the configuration speed."

More Mist AI and Cloud Cons →

"Zabbix technical support is sold separately.""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.""The stability could be better.""I had problems using Zabbix when working with SUSE Enterprise; many companies use SUSE.""It should be easy to modify the front end.""Zabbix can use better documentation and support for troubleshooting.""If you want to use all of the features then you have to pay a licensing fee.""In an upcoming release, there should be automated reports which we are currently doing manually. For example, if we collect a report file every day and want to send it to a moderator for review. We are expecting this feature to come out soon but it would be valuable to have now."

    I have researched a quite a few network monitoring tools which can be used for various monitoring purposes of not only the servers, but the intermediate routers as well. There are majorly three types of these softwares. Ones which are completely open-source, you can do almost anything you want using these, but they require quite some expertise before you can use them. Then there are the ones that are not open source, the enterprise softwares and cost you some money, but on the other hand, they are extremely easy to set-up and learn. You can have them up and running in a matter of minutes. And then there are those which are completely cloud based. They can be free of cost or charge some money depending on the software. The good thing about these is that you don’t have to install any extra software, and it can be managed completely online but then again these have limited features and you cannot exploit them to the full extent as you can do with the open-source and to some extent the enterprise software, so I won’t suggest you to use these, because these are generally not the complete solutions and require other support software to achieve the same. Below I have listed the outstanding pros and cons of the various Network analyzers that you can look into Nagios Pros: Nagios offers an extensive set of collector plug-ins that allows users to gather performance and availability data from a broad range of operating systems, including  Windows and Netware Nagios… Read more →
