Whatever you want, you can do it.""The most valuable feature of Nagios Core is it allows us to develop and add as many plugins as we want.""It is fairly easy to set up, and we can monitor pretty much everything we want to.""We use the product to monitor server applications.""The solution is quite efficient.""The most valuable features are the reports and the way it generates the report in a graphical manner."

Cons
"What's lacking in Loom Systems is the level of priority for each incident. For example, after implementation and there was a huge impact on the client, and the client comes back to you and says that there's an incident, that there needs to be an immediate resolution for it, you'll see severity one, severity two, etc., in Loom Systems, rather than priority levels. It would be better if the incidents can be defined as low priority, medium priority, or high priority.""The reporting is a bit weak. They should work to improve this aspect of the product.""The discovery and mapping still takes a lot of human intervention, it's quite resource heavy,""The change management within the solution needs to be improved. There needs to be more process automation."

More Loom Systems Cons →

"It is a bit slow due to latency.""The initial setup process could be easier.""I would like to see more training videos.""There is room for improvement in the graphics.""The UI is a little outdated and graphics could be displayed in a better way.""It would be nice if the company offered a sales or contract manager that was dedicated to our company so that we would have some sort of link to Nagios, and if we had issues or questions, we'd be able to contact them directly.""The core version is no match for the XI version.""Nagios Core could improve by adding a user interface. If you want the user interface you have to use Nagios XI."
