Zabbix is grate software
What do you like best about the product?
Automatic monitoring on server like AWS / Hardware / VMWare etc...
What do you dislike about the product?
I think I must use long time for setting zabbix monitoring server.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
we noticed server error in resource monitoring, application error in application log monitoring.
I love Zabbix after learning how to use it.
What do you like best about the product?
Zabbix has given us the ability to monitor all of our servers along with giving us the ability to receive alerts via email/jabber and even integrated it with pager duty. They have a great site to download templates for other devices that are not loaded by default upon installation. They've made it simple to transfer Zabbix to another server. I've had to do this a couple times and it been easy. They're latest version of Zabbix running 3.2 has a great interface. I love how this product has grown and looking beautiful.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like the fact there are not a lot of people using this making it hard to find instructional video to help solve problems or how-to's.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to proactively monitor and resolve an issue that may arise. We can see trends and when problems actually first start.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Zabbix had included a lot of the templates you need for monitoring already. Use their template site to find relevant templates for your hardware or software.
Zabbix a great monitoring tool nowadays.
What do you like best about the product?
Zabbix is actually a really helpful and indispensable tool in any company environment, its variety of supported devices make Zabbix a solution for almost any kind of system you want to monitoring.
What do you dislike about the product?
Its needing of a better management of reports. Sometimes when I need to create a report for an specific case, I have to mix Zabbix's results with Excel formulas to get what I need.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before integrate Zabbix to our business whe have tried different options, but not of them fulfilled our needs. With Zabbix all our servers, virtual and phisical, are completely monitored with on-time alarms and historical information.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
One of the best things Zabbix has, is the possibility to export as a XML file all the configuration from its modules, my recommendation - do periodically backups.
Peace of Mind for IT Infrastructure
What do you like best about the product?
The most important aspect of any monitoring application is reliability - this provides administrative staff the peace of mind that is critical to operations. You also can't beat the price - it's FREE. Besides that the alerts and visualization are more than sufficient for a small to medium sized IT infrastructure. Other notable features:
Process monitoring
Web based interface and free 3rd party mobile apps
Customization of alerts
Support for most all OS platforms
Support for SNMP
Easy of configuration with templates
Database monitors - these are freely available via the active forum and commuity

What do you dislike about the product?
With more power comes complexity but this a partially mitigated via the active community forum. The documentation is not the best and like most complex software platforms can be confusing and missing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main business problem is downtime that is not good for any real-time operations. The service monitor provide advanced warnings and pro-active alerts when things are starting to bad; this provide the admin staff early warning and a chance to mitigate any situation that poses a risk of downtime.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Due diligence with what you want to achieve and set the expectation level of the implementation team accordingly. Planning is important - do the templates and agent support your monitoring environment.
A stalwart soul amongst its competitors
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of configuring our various systems into Zabbix and reviewing recorded metrics in a GUI are probably the best features for our team. We've got a lot of resources and aren't typically pushing them to the brink. However, when issues arise, the ability to analyze and correlate load across multiple hosts has been a big win.
What do you dislike about the product?
A monitoring system and the story of the boy who cried wolf, never the twain should meet. Unfortunately, we have some situations where we receive so many messages about an error that it leads to the formation of bad habits. This is largely due to our system architecture and how specific monitors detect and report the same issue on multiple hosts. Specifically, storage utilization on a shared mount. We've made some inroads in solving this, but it continues to be a source of spam and desensitization to warning messages.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have quite a few hosts across multiple test and an operations environment. Being able to integrate the monitoring of those into a single monitoring solution has been a critical aspect of our systems approach. Being able to create custom screens/dashboards for high-interest metrics makes it simpler to filter through the noise and focus on what we care the most about.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
We've used other monitoring systems like Nagios and Hyperion. Zabbix is a simple solution that has many of the core features you want out of a system/application monitoring application. I recommend it as a tool that you evaluate when considering system monitors.
Fairly Intuituive and Fully Customize-able
What do you like best about the product?
Zabbix provides incredibly flexible reporting and monitoring views on a huge number of metrics. While not the most intuitive option, the ability to scrutinize your environment from many different perspectives outweighs the time consumed to set it up.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not intuitive at all to set up, as I mentioned before it this is hugely outweighed by the flexibility of the product. The setup of this product is not to be taken lightly though, as it's time consuming and requires systems and networking experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This product provides huge flexibility for monitoring services and machines on our network and even to go as far as inventory management.
Powerful, open source monitoring system
What do you like best about the product?
Before Zabbix, I was using Nagios as the monitoring system, Munin for usage graphs, and Diamond for application specific graphs. Now, we are able to keep it in one, slack solution, which is easier for developers to use. There is a great community, which is very helpful, and on the GitHub, you are able to found a lot of templates for almost any application. Community support is quick and responsive. Using API, you are able to integrate Zabbix with many other applications.
What is important for us - Zabbix is open source software, so we were able to fix some stuff by ourselves.

What do you dislike about the product?
It's sometimes hard to configure, needs strong technical skills. Also, database usage isn't optimal, and there is no easy option to undo your changes if you (for example) remove a host from the zabbix. The user interface could be improved because it's a little outdated. The graphs could also be improved, the current solutions is useful, but definitely, interactive graphs could help with analyzing data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were able to cut time, that developer needed to analyze part of the problem, because all graphs, automated issue reporting, and notifications were consolidated in one place. Our alerts are fully automated, forwarded to slack, then if nobody responds in few minutes, automatically send to mobiles of our team.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Sometimes it's better to hire external consultant to fully setup zabbix.
Great monitoring platform
What do you like best about the product?
Really like how easy it is to install and administrate. very light weight and can be easily customized to your needs
What do you dislike about the product?
Missing SAML SSO capabilities, Identifying problematic monitored items can be a little tricky (unsupported items) and lastly it's missing the ability to easily show multiple hosts with the same item on a single chart.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Monitoring our different environments, physical servers / virtual servers, applications level monitoring, inventory
Reports On Everything, If You Can Find It
What do you like best about the product?
It can report on pretty much any and all useful statistics on all your servers, as well as turn all the statistics into graphs.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you don't know what you're doing, it can be difficult to get it to report on the data you're actually looking for
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Performance issues. It becomes easier to see all server statistics at any point in time, so problem solving time is generally decreased.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Good software, UI is steadily improving, and getting easier to use
