IDERA Uptime Cloud Monitor [EOL] vs Zabbix comparison

"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."

"The most valuable aspect is it's very robust; it has a lot of features and it also integrates with a lot of the Cisco hardware around it, such as Smartboards and video conferencing units, making it a really robust and complete solution."

"The initial setup was straightforward; it was easy and, with the help of suppliers, it did not take much time to deploy and was not complex."

"It is a great product; the SNMP protocol tracking feature is good, I really like how it tracks SNMP, and the alerts are also great."

"Zabbix is good for discovery."

"The solution is quite mature and very stable."

"I like being able to use proxy servers for different locations. The agents are pretty cool. They're easy to roll out. The standard out-of-the-box templates are also pretty easy to use. The integration with other learning products is also good. I have, in the past, used Slack, but we've integrated it with Microsoft Teams. We also use it for SMS with a service called Redcoat. It is very flexible. It does what I need it to do, and my manager is very happy because it doesn't cost anything. We are nearing 4,000 hosts inside Zabbix, and we've got another 6,000 access points to add to it. We've thrown everything at it, and it has managed to keep going. I am very impressed with the tool, and I'd shake their hand very hard if I got to say the compliments to the Zabbix team. They keep improving it and doing refreshes, which is one good thing about it. There is also online information as well as books that you can purchase if you're willing to read enough. There is a lot to pick up, but it is a pretty complete solution."

"We delivered a project for telemetry but not just for IT, monitoring different parameters for radio communication sites and collecting information about alarms and analog values, and we use this system in mission critical applications for radio communications, police, firemen's, health, etcetera."

"I really enjoy network traffic triggers that allow us to check traffic threshold from ISP."

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

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

"There's a small module of APM, however, it is not an enhanced version. People usually ask for a full-fledged APM solution."

"Correlation of events would be a wonderful addition."

"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."

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

"For us, the initial setup was complex."

"Having a more customizable interface and dashboard would be an improvement."

"Even though it’s such a powerful monitoring system, it would be more helpful if it had a flexible UI."

"In an upcoming release, there should be automated reports which we are currently doing manually."

"This is an open-source solution that can be used free of charge."
