"It has made the life of the network operations staff more proactive in managing the resources of the infrastructure. It prevents disasters long before they can take place.""The most valuable feature of Nagios Core is the ability to check the availability of the server for network connectivity. Additionally, the interface is good.""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.""The most valuable feature is the performance parameters of the system.""Nagios Core is stable.""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.""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.""The most valuable feature of Nagios Core is it allows us to develop and add as many plugins as we want."

Cons
"The dashboard needs to improve.""We are currently exploring automation options for various areas, and Avantra should consider implementing automation for change request management, an area they have not yet ventured into. While Avantra is currently excelling in monitoring and system refreshes, there is scope for improvement in automating change request management. In addition to primarily focusing on SAP, Avantra currently performs kernel patches which are core SAP patches. However, exploring more into OS patching could be another potential area for Avantra to expand its automation capabilities.""The machine-learning is lacking and should be improved."

More Avantra Cons →

"Would benefit from aggregations if a particular server goes down.""It is a bit slow due to latency.""There is room for improvement in the graphics.""Bandwidth monitoring is the pain point for me because Nagios Core does not monitor bandwidth effectively like Cacti does.""The tool needs to improve the integrations.""The user interface could be more interactive because it is pretty basic.""Nagios Core could improve by adding a user interface. If you want the user interface you have to use Nagios XI.""I believe Nagios Core will need to provide an option for big data platforms in the future."
