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.

"A better Tintri would be a "cheaper" one to get things started again."
"For us, the initial setup was complex"
"The stability could be better."
"The performance reporting could be improved."

"The server monitoring could be better."
"The only issue I can note is that it's Linux-based, and Linux documentation is not the best."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It is a true open-source solution, so there are no licensing costs."
"The tool's licensing is good."
"The solution is free to use but they offer support as a paid service. If you can go read the manuals and do the fine-tuning based on your needs, you do not need to pay anything and you will have a full solution."
"This solution is open-source and free to use."
"I use the tool's free version."
"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."
"There are no licenses."
"Zabbix is an open-source tool, and it's free to use."
