Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in IT Infrastructure Monitoring."The most valuable feature of this solution is the fact that it sends me canned reports. It's easy to use and easy to update."
"Its overall flexibility is most valuable. When our customers have some custom applications that are not necessarily covered by the community or a standard monitoring tool, we use Zabbix to build our own modules with our own templates. This feature has been useful in using Zabbix for infrastructure and IT monitoring. It has also been useful for industrial equipment monitoring. Zabbix is very lightweight. It is efficient in terms of performance because it doesn't use a lot of resources."
"The most valuable feature is the monitoring of virtual machines."
"The most valuable feature is the protocol to manage anything."
"Zabbix is scalable."
"Setup was straightforward. Initial deployment took two or three months."
"Zabbix is very easy to implement."
"Zabbix can use old data to current data to set the threshold. We can use previous data to set the threshold."
"The solution allows for good integration with other products."
"I would like to see improved index shifting."
"Sometimes, the documentation is a little bit written in Estonia – a country in Europe. The language barrier and translation to English can sometimes make it difficult to understand what they're trying to get at. It's just a language thing."
"If you want to use all of the features then you have to pay a licensing fee."
"The solution needs to add remote features."
"My company wanted to do an exercise command to access IT from Cameroon. They wanted to access an FSS to a second host with second equipment that was on another coast but it is not possible on Zabbix to do it. They want to directly access from the front-end of Zabbix to access a prompt in Zabbix to an access terminal. In the front-end, there is no way to do that. That would be an important improvement."
"I am having difficulties connecting it to Grafana, as well as some of the other plugins like Kibana."
"Zabbix could improve when it comes to large-scale use cases. Additionally, the inventory could be better when connecting to other solutions, such as ServiceNow. There show to be better integration with other platforms and storage."
"Zabbix isn't very good at automation just yet."
"The user interface could be a bit better. They could update it a bit."
