It improves the way we work, the way our customers work. With eHealth, for instance, surgeons can make appointments with patients at a distance and they can still see each other. That's very, very good.

Just like any monitoring tool, the major benefits would be being proactive about and avoiding downtime and being able to do capacity planning of the infrastructure. It is about having more knowledge about what you own in terms of infrastructure. Once you do that, you're able to make educated decisions. They are not guesswork.

With Zabbix, we can be proactive in eliminating problems with over-consumption of resources, such as with memory, for example.
View full review »Zabbix has greatly improved operations and maintenance by helping management and technical teams be more proactive. They can easily spot problems or undesired states on the infrastructure or customer services
With the Zabbix out-of-box multitenancy support, customers can have restricted access to their service utilizations and other operational data in real time or on demand. The feedback from customers shows they are very happy and they appreciate how easy it is to learn using it.
Time to work on issues is greatly reduced, as Zabbix provides powerful alerts and details into what is happening in our network. Issues that could take weeks to resolve can now easily be spotted in a few minutes as all essential metrics for all devices are monitored in real time.
Zabbix fits well with the multi-vendor environment and it has a lot of out-of-box templates that can be customized to fit our needs.
We can easily provide infrastructure status reports with Zabbix. We can produce reports even for old devices that were not properly and consistently monitored since they were installed.
View full review »Before we didn't really have a centrally managed monitoring solution, so adding this product has been a blessing as we are able to actively monitor and react accordingly. Being able to monitor almost any device in one location is extremely convenient.

As our business has grown, we use Zabbix to monitor our Zabbix implementations - a 'manager of managers' setup. This has given us better resource utilisation and improved our service delivery.

Zabbix is our primary infrastructure monitoring and alerting tool. Thanks to Zabbix metrics we are not just notified of failures, but we have enough data for preventive maintenance optimization and capacity planning of our compute infrastructure.

We used this solution for monitoring our applications and our internal web applications, which we couldn't do with Icinga (the previous software we used). That product was very good but the application monitoring of it wasn't good at all. Now I hear that application monitoring is very good in Icinga EN, so we might try it again.
It gives you visibility over your infrastructure, so you are able to know the health of your services and it's dependencies every moment (and even to react automatically to problems). For example, in one organization I worked for, before Zabbix the problems were normally reported by the clients using the call center, so the Operations team was always working against the clock and with high levels of stress; after a successful implementation of Zabbix, putting the right monitors in place and a period of stabilization, the Operations team had the information to prevent the problems before the clients were affected. This resulted in a Operations team with lower levels of stress, more time to work on important projects and client satisfaction by lowering the number of problems visible by the client.

If you are serious about your infrastructure then you have to know what is going on. With Zabbix we know when servers are using to much cpu, memory, disk IO, etc. Besides getting notified when something goes wrong, we are also now aware of how good our infrastructure scales, something that can save us money and frustrations.

We detect problems before the customer does and before it actually happens using the predictive functions in Zabbix. Zabbix gives us a single point of truth.
View full review »Zabbix allows us to monitor critical parts of our systems, track performance and utilization, and prevent outages.
It allows us to monitor specific parts of the system as well as control how the whole environment is doing.
With the great alerting system we always know which component might fail and can prevent it.
Adding new hosts/items is easy and quick and the great function for mass updating many components at once is very helpful as well.

Simple, we know everything about our infrastructure, problems, etc.
View full review »We are now more pro-active before an issue appears to our customer because all the layers are now converged by Zabbix monitoring.
In addition, this monitoring product is easier to maintain, configure and less expensive in the total cost of ownership than the others.

From the use of Zabbix, we are now able to see an overview of our bandwidth consumption, a direct view of what links are being used on our backbone switches, and if there is any unusual peak of traffic on our network devices. Before using Zabbix and Grafana, we didn't have any view of the results of our network. We used to connect individually to every single device and collect the data to analyze but now, we have the opportunity to see graphs and charts of all of the network metrics.

Zabbix sends alerts e.g space on drives etc... which is useful as a prevention of server outage.

By proactively monitoring, it helped us to fix problems before any major disaster.
View full review »Availability problems are easily detected, minimizing downtime. Performance problems are detected before having an impact in customer experience. There is a centralized view of the whole IT system (HW to apps), and new devices services are easily integrated.
View full review »We operate an HPC cluster. On several occasions, the datacenter(s) counted above 1000 hosts. An easily scalable solution is most valued against other solutions which are simpler to operate and have a smoother learning curve, such as Nagios.
The design of Zabbix allows the user to change metrics and check on the server side, instead of changing them on the client side, via a configuration file.

View full review »By using the solution, we moved from a reactionary approach to a proactive evaluation of our equipment/systems.
View full review »As we know how are systems are supposed to work, Zabbix has given us the flexibility of building our checks without relying on special plugins. If some monitoring item is not provided already, building your own is very easy, and any scripting language will do. We’re able to pinpoint with accuracy where issues lie, and respond to them in a cost effective way, due to the nature of it being open source, with fairly decent documentation and optional commercial support.
