Find out in this report how the two IT Infrastructure Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The product is easy to deploy."
"The product's initial setup is easy."
"It meets my organizational needs. It's pretty easy to use."
"The performance and bandwidth are valuable features."
"Every new asset placed in the environment can be automatically detected, predicting human failures."
"It provides high scalability, alerting, notification, templating, and end-to-end security."
"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."
"Zabbix is both stable and scalable."
"Dashboard and the customization of the items and triggers are the most valuable features."
"The integration capabilities and APIs are the best part."
"Instana Infrastructure Monitoring needs to support monitoring of the .NET framework since it is one of the areas where the solution currently has shortcomings."
"The product’s scalability is an area with certain limitations, making it an area where improvements are required."
"It would be helpful if they translated the documentation to Cyrillic languages."
"They should open an SSH session from the web interface."
"There's a small module of APM, however, it is not an enhanced version. People usually ask for a full-fledged APM solution."
"Outside of the normal standard monitoring, I would like to extend patching, importing patching, and supporting patching for Windows Servers."
"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."
"Zabbix is not easy to configure, and upgrading is also an issue."
"When we have a problem, we have to do a lot of research to solve it."
"Zabbix technical support is sold separately."
