"Our customers like that Nagios Core is an open source solution. It can be customized to our customers' specific needs."
"The solution is quite efficient."
"The most valuable feature depends on the project. It's great if you need to check to ensure a service is running 24/7. I can use the full solution for free, and it's flexible. If I need to add a dashboard, I can integrate it with Nagios. Cloud synchronization is wonderful."
"Other products are good but from the configuration point of view Nagios is really very lightweight. The price is really good in my opinion. Another important thing is that my Nagios engine still works with Dual core 8GB ram for the last 10 years."
"What I like about Nagios Core is that it helps me ensure everything is running smoothly by checking the status of hosts and services."
"The most valuable feature is the performance parameters of the system."
"The notifications are definitely one of the most valuable features of Nagios Core. We know what to look for and what to expect when things are down."
"It is fairly easy to set up, and we can monitor pretty much everything we want to."
"The solution's service map feature allows us to have a holistic overview and to see quickly where the issues are."
"Detectors are a powerful feature."
"Splunk APM has helped us to standardize logging and monitoring procedures."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"It is a good tool. It allows you to set alerts for application and infrastructure monitoring, and it allows you to create dashboards."
"The most beneficial aspect of Slunk APM is the ATM, which is the map displaying the inbound and outbound relationships of the microservices, as well as the traffic between these dependencies. This feature provides us with valuable insights and helps us understand the interactions between different microservices."
"The most valuable features are troubleshooting and optimizing application performance."
"Splunk's dashboards are great."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"It's not that easy to install the product itself. Also, the UI is a bit hard for regular users to navigate through."
"Nagios Core can improve the graphical interface, it would make things a little easier."
"The UI is a little outdated and graphics could be displayed in a better way."
"Would benefit from aggregations if a particular server goes down."

"The core version is no match for the XI version."

"The licensing model is expensive. We need to monitor the amount of data ingested because the cost is based on the data collected."

"There are some predefined metrics.......we may want to create customized metrics."
"The cardinality is pretty low."
"We currently lack log analysis capabilities in Splunk APM."
