Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in IT Infrastructure Monitoring."The fault management is perfect."
"It creates transparency and makes everything work by being more transparent."
"Scalable and stable network monitoring tool with a simple setup."
"The most valuable feature is the auto-discovery, which is nice because you don't have to do anything to add a new component."
"We were able to standardize the internal processes across all internal departments, resulting in almost an elimination of non-standard process flows through our organization."
"Scalability is a highly rated feature of this solution. It is better than some of the other tools that I've used in terms of scalability. We scaled it to tens of thousands of devices."
"As the kind of enterprise that straddles the line between telco size and enterprise size, it scales for us, because we're not all the way at telco yet."
"Stability has been good. We really have not had any issues."
"Nagios XI is stable."
"The most valuable feature of Nagios XI is customization. We can customize based on our requirements. We can do modifications and implement a lot of scripts. Additionally, it is easy to use."
"The most valuable feature is its support for different types of devices, where it can use all of the equipment that you need."
"The solution is pretty stable."
"Nagios XI helped me to draw the network and check for system failures."
"Nagios is a custom API manager, and we can expose custom APIs for our integration. This is a great feature."
"Though I downplayed the administrative NCC GUI, this is by far the strongest aspect of the Nagios XI product."
"You want to monitor a specific metric that nobody else has? You can do it even with the most basic of scripting skills, and you can always share it with the vast community of Nagios Exchange."
"The Tintri product line as a whole has freed up a lot of resources from constant administration of legacy enterprise storage."
"I think the management or configuration of devices needs some improvement."
"I would recommend AI capability built-in so it becomes more predictable and we jump ahead of the curve. This is the one really important feature I would really like to see in any product that provides alarms."
"There should be better integration with other Broadcom products, like network performance manager. Currently, for every part of a product, you need a separate server environment. You have something for Spectrum, you have something for network performance, and you have something for NetFlow. There are a lot of islands and server farms with different technologies. They should be redeveloped to get one platform for all."
"Huawei devices are not properly supported, and there are incompatibility issues related to certain protocols."
"The interface is not nice and needs to be improved."
"The product should provide performance management features."
"The Spectrum OneClick is a Java-based client, and that's aging. Really, before any new feature integration, I'd love to see a comprehensive rebuild of the UI."
"We have had some issues with the spec server and the high availability replication of data. It fails over well, but it does not come back very well. We get duplicated events."
"The pricing has recently risen. I know they've changed what is covered under the license, however, it doesn't change the way we use it and adds nothing to our experience, and yet we now have to pay more."
"I would like a much easier GUI so that I can delete events and logs, which will free up a lot of space."
"I would like to be able to extend it to all of our data centers, whether they are in the cloud or not. It would be helpful if I could connect everywhere."
"The product does not have SAP monitoring."
"The reporting part should be made simpler. While we can obtain all the reports we need, we always have to create work-arounds to get them."
"The product could be optimized to improve the administrative user experience via the Nagios Core Configuration (NCC) GUI module."
"We often need to develop custom plugins to get Nagios to work the way we want it to work because the features we need are not always available in Nagios."
"We'd like to see more integration capabilities."
"A better Tintri would be a "cheaper" one to get things started again."
