Featured Reviews

Tanveer Khalid - PeerSpot reviewer
Infrastructure monitoring provides comprehensive and proactive alerts
One of the valuable features of this site is that it operates 24/7, monitoring my entire infrastructure, uptime, and related error issues. For example, it can monitor my network switches. The feature includes IP SLA to assess IP-based connections like static IPs. An alert is generated if issues occur, monitored through email notifications. It can also monitor Kubernetes, containers, FTP servers, and MSP features. The self-healing automation capability is also included.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Site24x7 stands out. It is truly amazing."
"One of the valuable features of this site is that it operates 24/7, monitoring my entire infrastructure, uptime, and related error issues."
"We like the user-interface for this solution, which makes it an easy to use tool."
"The most valuable function for me is the auto-discovery of interfaces in devices. When you integrate devices into the tool, it automatically finds the interfaces, which is very helpful for my job. Integration and configuration run smoothly in my experience with Juniper and Aruba devices."
"During my testing, the features that I like the most are that it can be integrated with my system, and it provides me with reports of all of my servers."
"The most valuable feature is network traffic monitoring."
"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."
"It's the best solution. Great. I would rate the overall solution ten out of ten."
"Zabbix is an excellent performance monitoring tool."
"The solution allows you to configure and customize how you want to collect information from servers or other systems."
 

Cons

"The product is not difficult to use. That said, it is technical. The engineer must be familiar with it."
"It is technical. The engineer must be familiar with it."
"An area for improvement would be the ease of doing aggregation from the value or different devices."
"There is a bit of a learning curve during installation."
"When it comes to troubleshooting or technical support, there is usually some time lag."
"To improve Zabbix, adding more features to support the monitoring of modern workloads like containers would be beneficial."
"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."
"I want Zabbix to improve the UX/UI. Zabbix doesn't use a JavaScript chart for images, and I want them to improve this."
"I am having difficulties connecting it to Grafana, as well as some of the other plugins like Kibana."
"Zabbix is powerful, but it is difficult to understand initially. There are many things that can be improved, but we might not be using Zabbix to its fullest extent. The software has more features than we need."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It is freeware. We still use the free version of Zabbix."
"It's an open-source solution that can be used free of charge."
"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."
"This is an open-source solution that can be used free of charge."
"For pricing, it's free. We don't pay anything for it. They open-source the code, and people pay for support."
"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."
"We’re using the free version, which covers all our current needs."
