YE
OSS Engineer at a tech vendor with 1,001-5,000 employees
A powerful service that is very stable and scalable
It's a very powerful service, you have to use your training and understand how to work it. After that, it's very easy to collect and to use. It may be hard to use for the administrators. It's like a Ferrari, if you're a very good driver you'll go to 300 but you have to know how to drive it. If you have a Ferrari but you don't know how to use it, it's not going to be good. Also, it's very important to understand what the customer needs to decide on what kind of products you are going to use, and what product and what solution to implement. I would rate the solution nine out of 10.

Partner Technical Support & Escalation Manager at a tech vendor with 51-200 employees
Real-time dashboards have improved our deployment monitoring and incident response
We are using Opsview ourselves, rather than being a consultant or a reseller. We do not use its auto-discovery feature. We do not utilize its API driven architecture. I do not know what metrics we use to assess the effectiveness of Opsview's hybrid IT monitoring. Overall, I am pretty satisfied with Opsview as it is good for what it does. I do not know if Grafana has any other advantages besides better stats, as I am not involved in that side. Based on my experience, I would still recommend Opsview to others as it is good for what it does. I gave this review a 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

"The product is excellent."
"My experience with technical support has been perfect."
"Opsview provides all the functionality of NetSaint and Nagios but with the simplicity of a GUI front end, using MySQL to centralize configuration."
"I like its scalability thanks to slaves, as you can add as many as you want, which also allows you to reach and monitor devices running on the network that are not accessible by the master."
"The multi-tenancy that's available through this is one of the most valuable things."
"Overall, I am pretty satisfied with Opsview as it is good for what it does."
"As a busy sysadmin that wears many hats, it is a relief to deal with this product and the Opsview staff."
"What was very compelling about OpsView was that we could dial out the noise and have meaningful and actionable alerts."
"For me, scalability and reliability are the product's most valuable features."
"We use this solution for internal monitoring our own cloud platform because we are a public cloud provider, and we also use it for monitoring purposes on behalf of our clients."
 

Cons

"The presentation of the features can be improved. It can be more user-friendly for the visual part of the portal and to allow the customer to be able to use."
"The presentation of the features can be improved."
"However, the license is expensive."
"In Opsview 4.6.3, there is no provision for making bulk changes to monitored servers via the GUI, though it is possible to custom-script bulk changes via the API."
"It can be a little bit flaky with the agent on VMware."
"There is one feature that I've been requesting for a while now. Going back to this multi-tenancy thing, right now the tenants can't create their own service checks, so that's still a process they have to get with us."
"We're already evaluating v5.0 and to tell the truth, there's a couple of things that we found really useful in previous versions that for some reason they have removed."
"Some aspects of the GUI functionality need improvement."
"It's probably the priciest option of all its main competitors."
"Pricing and a few certain aspects in the solution needs to be improved."
"Often the webpage becomes inaccessible and you need to refresh the page."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The license is expensive."
"I would rate pricing a seven out of ten, where ten is the highest price."
"The solution is priced similarly to other tools offering similar features."
"The solution is not cheap. I think that the pricing is a little bit on the high side."
