Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The technical support is good."
"It is easy to identify and collect information from all of the nodes on the network."
"The product helps users stay on top of gaining insight into the active directory, permissions and security sets, and user group policy changes."
"The most valuable feature is that it provides network segregation for server monitoring."
"We have found that Zabbix is more easy to use than other applications."
"The most valuable features are the monitoring and the ease with which we can set it up at customer sites with our custom Zabbix proxy and tools."
"Zabbix is a cost-effective solution. We're a small organization with a few dozen devices to monitor, and it was available for free. We can see what we need. We haven't done an in-depth analysis on it, but we're currently okay with the product."
"The most valuable features of Zabbix are flexibility and a single interface for different types of monitoring."
"I have found that the reporting feature in Zabbix is most valuable. Additionally, the solution has given us bandwidth options, we are able to see where problems are. For example, we noticed a problem that occurred because of a bad interface going in the wireless VLAN."
"Zabbix has a roadmap and they are continuously and frequently adding new features."
"Simple network monitoring that is easy to install and manage."
 

Cons

"The product could use more intelligence, automation and general availability of product information."
"The ManageEngine features could improve to show graphs of the traffic and network utility."
"We would like to have support for integration with ServiceDesk."
"When it comes to troubleshooting or technical support, there is usually some time lag."
"The integration of the product is not so easy, especially when it comes to the application database."
"Zabbix does not draw automatic mapping of the network, this is something they should add in the future. There is a lot of effort that is involved in tailoring some of the settings which could be made easier."
"The user web interface is a little bit too basic, we need to link Zabbix to Grafana to have more options, such as graphs and charts. The interface needs to be improved. Additionally, there could be better integration with Grafana API."
"The user interface could be a bit better. They could update it a bit."
"The main problem with Zabbix is that you have to spend time writing templates for all of the products that you have."
"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."
"The dashboard and the graph section could be a little bit more professional."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"We purchased Zabbix for a good price, including support"
"Its licensing is fair. It seems to be much cheaper than others."
"We pay the subscription for support by year."
"I was using the free, Community Edition."
"Zabbix is an open-source tool, and it's free to use."
"It is a true open-source solution, so there are no licensing costs."
"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."
"There are no licenses."

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