Pros
"It is easier for client installation, and the configurations are doable even for a newcomer in the field.""Nagios Fusion version 12.8 excels in user-friendly GUI design, cost-effectiveness, and ease of deployment.""Being open source lets us customize it for our monitoring needs, saving us money.""It's very easy to manage and monitor it."

More Nagios Fusion Pros →

"The most valuable feature is the flexible discovery mechanism.""It's easy to use.""What I like most about Zenoss Service Dynamics is that it monitors the devices and gives close to real-time alerts. For example, in case the device is not available, Zenoss Service Dynamics generates an alert so my team can resolve the issue.""The product offers good documentation that helps with initial training.""The custom built integration is one of the most valuable features because you can see all the especially critical items.""Its Docker Container concept is mind blowing. It is the first monitoring tool which comes with Docker features.""They have also accommodated many state-of-the-art technologies like Docker and ZooKeeper."

Cons
"Nagios Fusion should include a 'remember me' option when logging in, so we don't need to enter a username and password every time.""There are some bugs, although not that many. There are some situations where the solution is not stable but the number of problems is not very high.""In future iterations of this solution, there is a desire for more seamless integration with other monitoring software.""Adding application performance monitoring to the product alongside infrastructure monitoring would make it a more complete and useful solution."

More Nagios Fusion Cons →

"There is room for improvement with the administrative part. They introduced Control Center to manage things in Zenoss 5. The services that Zenoss provides remained the same, but the administrative part, since they introduced Docker, etc., has become a little complex""As Zenoss Service Dynamics is more for network-centric devices and you want to monitor, for example, a server, its services, IP addresses, and interfaces, if it's a network and you're going to monitor multiple items, you'll be charged multiple times. This is what Zenoss Service Dynamics needs to improve to make sure that customers pay just one fee to monitor the entire server. What I'd like to see in Zenoss Service Dynamics in the future is a public cloud monitoring feature, particularly for the Azure public cloud. Another additional feature I'd like to see in the next release of the solution is integration with the Azure public cloud because I know that there are some services from Azure that Zenoss Service Dynamics is currently unable to monitor.""It would be ideal if the product offered sound alerts.""There was a problem with Zenoss and storage monitoring.""The inclusion of a feature to show a graphical view of the network would be a helpful improvement.""Now it is stable, but they should design threshold parameters in percentage instead of raw values.""The AI aspect needs to improve."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The pricing is quite reasonable, especially when compared to the broader market."
  • More Nagios Fusion Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "It depends on the customer, what he wants."
  • "It is very cost-effective compared to the tools I worked with in the past. The company is gaining a lot with respect to the cost factor. It provides agentless monitoring and in a very cheap way."
  • "The pricing depends on the environment, the number of services, and the size of the data center. It can go from $100,000 to a million dollars."
  • "There are additional costs you'll have to pay apart from the license fee for Zenoss Service Dynamics. I can't remember exactly how much my company is paying because I don't handle the finance part, but the cost is paid annually. On a scale of one to five, with one being the cheapest and five being the most expensive, I'm rating the solution three out of five."
