"The most valuable feature is its support for different types of devices, where it can use all of the equipment that you need."
"Nagios is stable and it's easy to use the monitoring software, which is why we chose this product."
"The most valuable feature is the monitoring of processes."
"I can monitor a phone on a desk to very big servers of any company."
"The most valuable feature is the dashboard, where I can have a single screen that provides a summary for hundreds of servers."
"The installation is no problem. I've installed Nagios several times."
"It's great for monitoring IT services infrastructure."
"They have many different options with Palo Alto WildFire and the set-up is quick. If you have all the details in hand, it does not take more than 15 minutes to deploy a firewall."
"Scalable ATP solution that's quick to set up. It demonstrates good performance and stability."
"It gives a more accurate assessment of a virus in terms of whether it's truly a virus, malware, or a false positive. We have some legacy software that could pop up as being something that is malware. WildFire goes through and inspects it, and then it comes back and lets us know if it's a false positive. Usually, when it finds out that it's not a virus, it lets us know that it's benign, and it can exclude it from that scan, which means I don't even have to worry about that one popping up anymore."
"The technical support is good."
"Using WildFire has reduced the number of viruses and the amount of malware that comes into our system, which means that I don't have to rely on the end-users to identify it."
"Intuitive threat prevention and analysis solution, with a machine learning feature. Scalable, stable, and protects against zero-day threats."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"A good tool for file scanning and email threat detection, especially when it comes to attachments and communications."
"The way Nagios displays information isn't easy for a new user to understand. It's not intuitive enough. You need to read some tutorials or be trained to understand what it's displaying. Also, I think it needs more features to improve network visibility because there are some things you can't detect."
"There's room for improvement in the visibility, and in the ability to extract information. Stuff like this should be more simple."
"Nagios XI can improve network and hardware monitoring, these parameters should be simplified to allow usage for monitoring. Additionally, if there was automatic reporting it would be helpful."
"The scalability of Nagios XI is scalable. However, it is not easy to do."
"Open-source software is usually not user-friendly."
"The product could be optimized to improve the administrative user experience via the Nagios Core Configuration (NCC) GUI module."
"They need more documentation for the plugins."
"The product's stability could be even better."
"The configuration should be made a little bit easier. I understand why it is as it is, but there should be a way to make it easier from the user side."
"The only complaint that we receive from our customers is in regards to the price."
"There are some formats that the solution cannot support ."
"It's not really their problem, it's a problem across the board. There will always be problems with interrupted traffic. We have to set it up where we're playing a middle man game where we're stripping it out, looking at it, and then putting it back together and sending it on its way. That requires CPU cycles. And there's some overhead with that."
"The automation and responsiveness need improvement."
"They provide a medium level of technical support."
"The support is good but they could be faster."
"The solution can improve its traffic management."
