More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Pros →

"The traffic monitoring and the traffic analysis are great.""The product provides intensive reports.""The dashboard, versatility and larger horizon are valuable.""The solution is scalable.""Some of the most valuable features are the accessibility of the solution and the fact that it is simpler than other products. For example, discovering devices in the network is very simple, making it user-friendly.""The solution's most valuable feature is its ability to reach most of our network devices and get the most from them.""We find the networking aspect of this solution to be the most valuable.""Device backups are smooth and managed centrally, with a nice dashboard, so you can quickly see the status."

More ManageEngine OpManager Pros →

"It meets my organizational needs. It's pretty easy to use.""Like other common Linux distributions, some of the most valuable features of this solution are the ease of use and deployment. It's simple and has a lot of packages and a lot of software.""The most valuable feature is that it provides network segregation for server monitoring.""The solution is open-source, easy to manage, and user-friendly making it easy for anyone to use.""Zabbix is both stable and scalable.""The most valuable feature is network traffic monitoring.""Zabbix is a cost-effective solution. We're a small organization with a few dozen devices to monitor, and it was available for free. We can see what we need. We haven't done an in-depth analysis on it, but we're currently okay with the product.""The solution allows you to configure and customize how you want to collect information from servers or other systems."

Cons
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."

More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Cons →

"There should be an option to get mobile notifications or SMS mirror notifications for critical issues. That way, when we don't have access to email, we can still receive notifications via our phones.""There are certain things that are not possible to do with Op Manager. It's a solution that still needs time to develop.""I would like to see more enhancements made to the product.""The licensing model is confusing.""The storage level monitoring needs improvement. It needs storage level monitoring on the server itself. That feature is lacking right now.""The only problem with it is that the setup isn't very intuitive. I know that they just upgraded the product to make it a little bit easier to use, but compared to some of the other platforms, it is not easy to configure it, set it up, and get it running. However, once you have set it up and got it running, it runs great.""We would like link monitoring included. At times we need to monitor those specific links closely.""Needs an OVA, or more support for virtual deployments. Building a virtual instance of OpManager and OpManager Probe was a bit difficult because there was no OVA available."

More ManageEngine OpManager Cons →

"Zabbix isn't very good at automation just yet.""We would like to see the addition of automatic push functionality to this product. This would save time when monitoring our servers and networks as, at present, we have to manually install the Zabbix agent on any hardware to be monitored.""I am having difficulties connecting it to Grafana, as well as some of the other plugins like Kibana.""I would like to see a more flexible mobile client, and better HA out of the box.""The documentation could be improved.""The only improvement I would suggest, revolves around its AI and ML capabilities.""I would like to remotely connect to the computer, and Zabbix doesn't have this capability.""The main problem with Zabbix is that you have to spend time writing templates for all of the products that you have."

    I have researched a quite a few network monitoring tools which can be used for various monitoring purposes of not only the servers, but the intermediate routers as well. There are majorly three types of these softwares. Ones which are completely open-source, you can do almost anything you want using these, but they require quite some expertise before you can use them. Then there are the ones that are not open source, the enterprise softwares and cost you some money, but on the other hand, they are extremely easy to set-up and learn. You can have them up and running in a matter of minutes. And then there are those which are completely cloud based. They can be free of cost or charge some money depending on the software. The good thing about these is that you don’t have to install any extra software, and it can be managed completely online but then again these have limited features and you cannot exploit them to the full extent as you can do with the open-source and to some extent the enterprise software, so I won’t suggest you to use these, because these are generally not the complete solutions and require other support software to achieve the same. Below I have listed the outstanding pros and cons of the various Network analyzers that you can look into Nagios Pros: Nagios offers an extensive set of collector plug-ins that allows users to gather performance and availability data from a broad range of operating systems, including  Windows and Netware Nagios… Read more →
