Room for Improvement

  • "I had difficulty installing Sysdig Monitor on Windows."
  • ""Events" reporting (errors, crashes, etc.) is not clear at all in a Mesos environment (i.e., it's not clear what specific container is the one that went down). In a Docker Compose environment, it may be way better."
  • "It is needs to automate the actions to take when an alert is triggered."

Pricing

These insights are based on the in-depth reviews provided by peers to help you make a better buying decision.
