Quick start thanks to strong Checkmk documentation – ideal for plugin development
Reviewed on Jun 16, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
I started working with Checkmk for the first time 3 years ago and was able to quickly familiarize myself with its functionality and procedures. The documentation is also very helpful in this regard - especially for plugin development.
What do you dislike about the product?
What bothers me at the moment is that I always have to restart Apache when developing native plugins, for example, to test small adjustments in the Bakery Rule for the plugin.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Checkmk, we can operate many remote sites without much configuration effort. Additionally, the functionality of the agents helps us to deploy our own scripts on the distributed systems with little effort and run them cyclically.

Scalable Monitoring with Clear Results
Reviewed on Jun 16, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate checkmk's straight-to-the-point monitoring. Even though the UI may look old, the results show clearly. The agents and SNMP are really effective, making it easy to monitor thousands of services on a wide range of network devices and vendors. I find it simple to add or modify new checks based on existing SNMP data.
What do you dislike about the product?
Agent downloads in 2.4 are difficult in MSP setups. Hope 2.5 makes it better. Agent downloads via API are from a central site in a distributed setup. The central site might not be reachable by clients being set up as they are in a different network segment.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Checkmk to scale monitoring to thousands of services and handle data segregation across customers. It offers straight to point monitoring and effective SNMP integration, making it easy to add or modify checks for network devices.

It helps getting a full stack overview, not only about your network environment but also deep within application monitoring. Many different systems can be monitored and the software can easily be expanded.
What do you dislike about the product?
In large scale environments, it is sometimes too slow, as it has many different components interacting with each other. Also there are fixed limits within several configuration options that do not scale well with large scale environments.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
