"We use it for monitoring whenever we update a new circuit or site."
"The initial setup was very quick. The first time it was long because I didn't know it yet. I was only using Windows. The first time was very difficult because of the operating system."

"Zabbix helps to save time."
"Zabbix has a roadmap and they are continuously and frequently adding new features."
"We are able to monitor our virtual infrastructure, virtual machines, windows servers, databases, and the network using a simple network management protocol.

"The scalability has some limitations and quirks to it. I would like to be able to upgrade rather than replace the whole thing."
"Only problems that we have had are fiber issues going into the TAPs or vSTREAMs, which are usually local site issues."
"The stability depends on who is using the tool, because you only can get as much out of the tool as you put into it. There are a lot of patches for this particular environment, so you have to keep on them. If you lose track of them, then the product is not useful anymore."
