Nagios Fusion Reviews

We use it for this specific client, they've deployed multiple instances of it across various locations to facilitate monitoring. To effectively monitor their infrastructure, it seems necessary to implement additional monitoring solutions for all three types of devices they have.

Nagios Fusion version 12.8 excels in user-friendly GUI design, cost-effectiveness, and ease of deployment. These factors contribute to a seamless experience for customers, allowing them to efficiently utilize the product's features without encountering challenges or complications.

In future iterations of this solution, there is a desire for more seamless integration with other monitoring software.

I have been using it for ten years.

There are occasional bugs that require me to reach out to the support team for resolution.

It is highly scalable, I would rate it nine out of ten. There are approximately ten people actively using it.

I am satisfied with its technical support and I would rate it nine out of ten.

In my experience with monitoring solutions, I've encountered a diverse range of options in the market, including offerings from upper-tier companies like SolarWinds and ManageEngine. I've had clients with smaller environments seeking cost-effective solutions, while others with larger setups require top-of-the-rack and on-the-shelf products.

The initial setup was straightforward.

Typically, once the infrastructure is upgraded to support Python, the authorization and deployment processes take approximately three weeks, which includes fine-tuning. It is essential to dedicate at least a week to personnel training. I manage approximately ten installations, with about three to four being Nagios on-premises solutions and two utilizing Nagios Fusion.

The pricing is quite reasonable, especially when compared to the broader market. It is versatile and suitable for use by smaller businesses, not exclusively tailored for larger organizations.

Overall, I would rate it eight out of ten.

I use Nagios Fusion to keep an eye on lots of servers and network devices. It tells me when things like memory or CPU usage get too high by sending alerts. I also use it to check if servers are working or not and make sure everything in our IT system is healthy, including network devices. Nagios Fusion helps me make sure everything runs smoothly and reliably.

We find Nagios Fusion's open-source nature most valuable. The software is free, and we only pay for server hosting. Being open source lets us customize it for our monitoring needs, saving us money.

There are no major areas for improvement to suggest. However, adding application performance monitoring to the product alongside infrastructure monitoring would make it a more complete and useful solution.

I have been using Nagios Fusion for three months.

I would rate the stability a nine out of ten. We haven't faced any issues with Nagios Fusion so far.

I would rate the scalability of the product an eight out of ten. Five people use it at our company.

The setup process for Nagios is more involved compared to simpler solutions like Dynatrace. Since everything was already set up when I joined the company, I haven't had to install any agents or go through the installation process myself. I have mainly used the Nagios dashboard for monitoring without dealing with the setup intricacies.

Dynatrace is very different from Nagios Fusion. It has a lot more features and capabilities, but it's also quite expensive. Due to budget limitations, I had to abandon our POC with Dynatrace for our company.

Overall, I would rate Nagios Fusion a nine out of ten.

We review the alerts for our application and analyze how critical they are. It helps us understand the status of the alert, how many times they are triggered and its iterations.

Nagios Fusion should include a 'remember me' option when logging in, so we don't need to enter a username and password every time.

I have been using this solution for about a year at my company. It is deployed on-premises.

It is a stable solution.

I rate this solution an eight out of ten. Regarding advice, anyone using this solution should use the user manual or operating guide. For example, they should understand how Nagios Fusion works for UA and what options are possible.

It is easier for client installation, and the configurations are doable even for a newcomer in the field. It depends on the scalability and how the host application is selected. So overall, it's a good experience with Nagios Fusion.

It's very easy to manage and monitor it. It is a simple software solution, but it's enough for my needs.

I would like to see more possibilities for more monitoring purposes. I would also recommend they go in the direction of security information.

I have been using Nagios Fusion for between six months and one year. I am using the demo/free version on Ubuntu Linux.

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.

For me, it's scalable, but I don't monitor more than 10 services with this solution. There are five or six users using the software in our company to monitor things, including two outsourced people.

I have not been in touch with Nagios technical support.

I also use PRTG Network Monitor to monitor network traffic and network communication.

The initial setup of Nagios Fusion is straightforward.

We had an outsourced company implement this solution. We have a contract with this company for hours of services.

I would recommend using Nagios, especially for users who tend to have a small number of servers or services.
