Sales Manager at a construction company

It shows us not only when utilization is high, but also when it's low

An online app or download would be useful for the next release, possibly even a phone app that I could use to view my dashboard when I am stationed remotely. Besides a call center, we have a lot of employees in the field and on the road, therefore for management to have access to those numbers quickly, it would be very helpful.

Helps reduce response time but has room to improve customization complexity

We are not working on simple standalone solutions like Kaspersky DDoS Protection or Hybrid Cloud Security. Once you understand Zabbix, then it is easy to customize those web pages and graphs for our customer use. It is fully automated to your requirements. Zabbix is working fine with no issues, and I am satisfied with it. We have combined Zabbix and SolarWinds. The integration works fine, and it is easy to integrate Zabbix with the IT environment. We were trying to purchase MDR (Managed Detection and Response), but we are not working on that. I don't have real experience with MDR. We are using Falcon software for that. We are working with Falcon Complete, not with Sandbox. We are not using Kaspersky for business or cloud protection. For that, we are using Zabbix CrowdStrike Falcon Complete solution. I have given this review an overall rating of 8.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"It shows us not only when utilization is high, but also when it is low."

"It allows us to easily troubleshoot computer issues instead of calling a tech person or do the troubleshooting ourselves and taking the time to do it."

"It has allowed us to save time, and this is extremely valuable as a company."

"MetricsView allows us to keep an eye on computer memory, internal network availability, processors, etc. Letting us know where our issues are coming from based on those numbers."

"It's a flexible solution."

"The pricing of the product is reasonable."

"Zabbix is an excellent performance monitoring tool."

"Zabbix is scalable."

"I use the solution to provide a perfect environment for remote connectivity with my clients."

"Zabbix is good for discovery."

"It's very easy to use and manage."

"Like other common Linux distributions, some of the most valuable features of this solution are the ease of use and deployment. It's simple and has a lot of packages and a lot of software."

More Zabbix pros

Cons

"An online app or download would be useful for the next release, possibly even a phone app that I could use to view my dashboard when I am stationed remotely."

"Overall, setting up Zabbix is a challenge."

"Implementation is always tailored to the customer and the kind of information we need from the client to carry it out can make them very uncomfortable. Sometimes the clients are not ready to share it."

"An area for improvement would be the ease of doing aggregation from the value or different devices."

"They need to improve the APM solution, the Application Management solution."

"They should open an SSH session from the web interface."

"My company wanted to do an exercise command to access IT from Cameroon. They wanted to access an FSS to a second host with second equipment that was on another coast but it is not possible on Zabbix to do it. They want to directly access from the front-end of Zabbix to access a prompt in Zabbix to an access terminal. In the front-end, there is no way to do that. That would be an important improvement."

"There are some features of Zabbix that are not good for reporting. The DX Spectrum solution has better reporting."

"To improve Zabbix, adding more features to support the monitoring of modern workloads like containers would be beneficial."

More Zabbix cons
