CheckMK is a great monitoring system
What do you like best about the product?
CheckMK meets requirement to be able to monitor different devices - I work at the Telecom company where we have several different IT manufactures and I never had an issue to monitor them. System is easy to use, easy to setup, easy to admin.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing! I am using CheckMK for almost a decade and tried several monitoring products but never found as great product as CheckMK. I'm also attending this year CheckMK conference.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are monitoring whole network infrastructure and also our server infrastructure. Using business intelegence module helps us show if client's services are working as they should.

One monitoring tool to rule them all
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best is the enormous amount of systems and services it can monitor "out of the box". I almost haven't found a thing I can't monitor. And for those very few things that I couldn't, I wrote my own checks.
Also, the fact that almost everything is detected automatically makes it very easy to use and set up. No need to dig into configuration files manually; just click and go.
And if I do run into an issue just contact the CheckMK staff. My experience is that they respond quickly and help get the issue resolved.

What do you dislike about the product?
As I did mention, it can monitor almost everything. For new users this can be a bit overwhelming. Then again, as it's easy to manage using the GUI, you'll get used to it soon enough.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In our old monitoring tool we did not have monitoring for the Windows Server log facility. As this is standard in CheckMK we were able to monitor these. From what we found in these logs we were able to identify and solve issues that slowed down our systems but hadn't noted before.
Also we gained more insight on what was happening in our Tomcat servers allowing us to tune them better.

It's a great tool for monitoring your systems. And you can try it for free. (Download the CRE version).
Checkmk, a network monitor without limits
What do you like best about the product?
Checkmk allows so many types of monitoring that it can handle basic monitoring and very advanced monitoring, even custom monitoring of your specific applications.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not necessarily something to be "fixed", but because it can do so many things, there's a lot to its interface.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're monitoring almost 10,000 services across just 170 hosts. That's more monitoring than any other product we've tried. Checkmk helps us to respond proactively to situations before things become critical. It has also found problems that we did not know we had. Because it is fairly simple to add custom local checks and plugins, we're able monitor clear down to the api level, the requests coming into our microservices. Custom graphs, reports and dashboarding allow you to see or get the information you want, however you want.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Checkmk ticks so many boxes, and we had a lot of them! When we reviewed about a dozen monitoring tools back in 2016, we chose, then, check_mk (raw), because there was very little it couldn't do. It was so valuable to the company that we bought the enterprise produce which comes with even more features. If you want everything monitored, CheckMk is best in class.
An Absolute Necessity
What do you like best about the product?
How easily the software may be extended to custom environments.
What do you dislike about the product?
Limitations around dynamic checks; would like to have service checks come into existence and vanish quickly for specific items.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have a considerable amount of customer software running in the environment, and some of it lacks support. CheckMK allows us to keep tabs on thousands of systems easily.
Continuously learning with Check_MK
What do you like best about the product?
I like the variety of checks that can be done easily through their agents. If the default agent doesn't have all the functionality I need I can add in plugins or even create my own plugins.
What do you dislike about the product?
The biggest problem with check_mk is having to change my thought process. Having started in Nagios with configuration files, I'm having to retrain myself in the use of rules, labels, and a GUI interface for configuration.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are now able to easily monitor systems with an intelligent agent with a single check, without having to deploy multiple agents or scripts for a better view of systems. We are finally getting rid of only ping checks on systems. Plus we are using a distributed system for monitoring, which allows us to put more of the development of new checks on the larger groups that will run their own check-MK servers.
check_MK is the best monitoring tool availible
What do you like best about the product?
the reliability and functionality of the system.
What do you dislike about the product?
We use Grafana as a dashboard tool, i would like to see something similar in cmk
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Check_MK is a monitoring system, we do not solve Problems with it, we identify Problems with it, that's what it's made for
I`m using Check_MK over 7 years. It`s very powerfull and comfortable monitoring tool.
What do you like best about the product?
Syslog monitoring network equipment and servers. Very easy to write own plugins for monitoring.

I like everything that did in this system. Didn`t find the negative side.

The system provides complete control of the network, which consists of equipment from different manufacturers.
