There were issues with performing upgrades, however, we can now plan better for the future.

The insight on availability trends (CPU, Swap & IO) function is valuable We can now plan better for the future as a result of more insights about our server farm. Service monitoring Host vs virtual instance I've used if for over two years. There were none, but there were issues with…

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

"We were in the need of a fast-to-deploy solution for the external monitoring of our servers, and Copperegg gave us all the needed features plus the internal and custom metrics."

"If you need to have more insight about your data center, Copperegg is the way to go."

"Zabbix is scalable."

"The best feature is that Zabbix can report everything, and everything in Zabbix is free."

"For internal monitoring and network monitoring the solution is really good."

"The most valuable features of Zabbix are flexibility and a single interface for different types of monitoring."

"Zabbix is very easy to implement."

"Zabbix allows us to monitor a lot of hardware equipment without any additional cost."

"I recommend this solution."

"The initial setup was not complex."

Cons

"Yes, some days the service was down and we did not find an accurate response from the company."

"There were none, but there were issues with performing upgrades."

"I think ZABBIX needs improved report functions."

"In an upcoming release, there should be automated reports which we are currently doing manually. For example, if we collect a report file every day and want to send it to a moderator for review. We are expecting this feature to come out soon but it would be valuable to have now."

"It should be easy to modify the front end."

"If anything could be improved, it would be some of the terminology that is used in the documentation."

"Documentation terminology could be improved."

"It hasn't really been that stable, but I think that has a lot to do with the specs. It could be more stable."

"The server monitoring could be better."

"Zabbix is not easy to configure, and upgrading is also an issue."

More Zabbix cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"It is reasonable."

"Zabbix and Grafana are both open source products, we only needed to go to their website and download the application and we began to use them. The solutions are free."

"I was using the free, Community Edition."

"Its licensing is fair. It seems to be much cheaper than others."

"There is a license required for this solution and we pay annually for our license."

"It is open source. If you want to have a subscription or official support, you can pay for it. They have different plans, which are not that expensive. The plans are based on per monitoring server, not per monitored equipment. So, it is not at all expensive, and you can also live without the support if you want a cheaper option."

"Zabbix is open-source so if one wishes to implement it in-house, they must have qualified professionals to set up and optimize databases, Linux/Unix OS, PHP, Apache, and depending on what is monitored, a full-stack network and systems administrator may be needed."

"For pricing, it's free. We don't pay anything for it. They open-source the code, and people pay for support."

Nagios vs. Zabbix vs. PRTG vs. Spiceworks vs. Solarwinds Network Performance Monitor

I have researched a quite a few network monitoring tools which can be used for various monitoring purposes of not only the servers, but the intermediate routers as well. There are majorly three types of these softwares. Ones which are completely open-source, you can do almost anything you want…
