OpenStack system monitor tools

  • June 01, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Zabbix has rich of plugins which enables you to monitor what ever you want or write your own plugins for specific application monitoring. it's GUI can display most of the data collected for user analysis.
What do you dislike about the product?
When the system monitored is large, such as more than 500, it's performance is bad, even though is has cluster solution, it can not satisfy production environment requirement. Compared with Time Series database such as influxdb, zabbix still use mysql for data store.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is a free system monitoring solution , we integrate it with our private cloud solution. so we can deliver our solution to customer without develop a new monitoring system. it saves our engineer work.

Open Source - Works Fine for Intended Purpose

  • April 16, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Useful for monitoring Web Servers and Databases. Indicates high usage, down services, ssl expirations, etc. If you're managing more than 5 VM's at a time it's worth it. You can also hook it up to a GSM module, which is nice.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing as of now. A colleague setup the infrastructure. One should expect customization may be cumbersome as with most open source software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Monitoring servers.

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use, free, easy to set up and the notifications come in short order. Lots of options available, meets all entry level requirements and beyond
What do you dislike about the product?
GUI could be a bit more attractive, the ability to create custom notification templates is limited and simply just text based
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Zabbix allows us to ensure that our systems are up and running and remain online.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Depending on your level knowledge this product can be difficult to use as there is only forum level support

I love Zabbix after learning how to use it.

  • February 24, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

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.

  • February 04, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

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

  • January 27, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

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

  • January 27, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

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

  • January 26, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

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.
