We performed a comparison between eG Enterprise and Zabbix 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."
"EG monitors all infrastructure elements (all OS, all database, storage, network, and web server) from a single console."
"The ability to see what the end user response is, so I can get a better understanding of what the end user is seeing when they connect to the Citrix servers."
"What I like about eG Enterprise is that it's easy to use. It's a simple product. You can get up to seventy-five to eighty percent of the required information based on real user experience and diagnostics."
"Single pane of glass to review status of the full environment."
"It gives good insight into inside of what's going on with Exchange."
"Sometimes when we face issues with the new technologies or very old technologies where we cannot enhance the service, they move to work with us directly and start doing some development on this area which is very good for us."
"The product is simple to use."
"Its ability to monitor failures and to restart a Windows service when it fails."
"The solution is quite mature and very stable."
"I like being able to use proxy servers for different locations. The agents are pretty cool. They're easy to roll out. The standard out-of-the-box templates are also pretty easy to use. The integration with other learning products is also good. I have, in the past, used Slack, but we've integrated it with Microsoft Teams. We also use it for SMS with a service called Redcoat. It is very flexible. It does what I need it to do, and my manager is very happy because it doesn't cost anything. We are nearing 4,000 hosts inside Zabbix, and we've got another 6,000 access points to add to it. We've thrown everything at it, and it has managed to keep going. I am very impressed with the tool, and I'd shake their hand very hard if I got to say the compliments to the Zabbix team. They keep improving it and doing refreshes, which is one good thing about it. There is also online information as well as books that you can purchase if you're willing to read enough. There is a lot to pick up, but it is a pretty complete solution."
"Health and communication links availability."
"It has an intuitive UI with beautiful graphs and customizable maps."
"We use it to monitor and manage our servers."
"The initial setup, while not simple, is easier than other products."
"The flexible licensing model is one of the solution's most valuable aspects. It really allows for great flexibility for companies."
"It not only provides the preconfigured item monitoring feature, but it is also easy to configure custom items."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"The solution needs to enhance the management dashboards."
"The UI looks a little dated and could do with a refresh."
"Dashboards are difficult to create, and not so useful."
"eG Enterprise's licensing could be cheaper. Even compared to Dynatrace, I think the price is quite expensive considering the APM functionalities, even though they have other benefits such as info monitoring."
"Back-end configuration is not easy to implement."
"Their dashboards could use some improvement. The ability to customize them a bit more."
"Needs to improve the networking monitor capabilities."
"would like to see improvements in the alarm display console."
"There are not too much documentation or manuals. We found the tutorials very easy to understand but do not go deep enough in the use of Zabbix. We need more manuals, proper use, documentation, etc."
"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."
"There are some features of Zabbix that are not good for reporting. The DX Spectrum solution has better reporting."
"For us, the initial setup was complex"
"An area for improvement would be the ease of doing aggregation from the value or different devices."
"Implementing Zabbix is difficult. I've deployed many solutions over the years, and Zabbix is the hardest to implement. You have to do some development to get it to work with IBM, Micro Focus, or HP products."
"The GUI could be more intuitive. Also, we'd like streaming telemetry. Zabbix might have this feature, but I haven't seen it yet. It took us a long time to get started because the documentation isn't very descriptive. We had to go through various sources like YouTube and forums to get this solution working."
"We had some scalability issues with a large number of nodes."
