Easy to Learn but Full of Advanced Features! Plus a Free Open Source Version!!
What do you like best about the product?
CheckMK is easy to set up and get monitoring quickly. After that, you can go in-depth with custom integrations, SNMP commands, contact groups, dashboards and more!
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish that there was a notification integration to Microsoft Teams. I used a GitHub script from the community that does work and is a modification of the Slack script (https://github.com/RileyMichael/checkmk-notify-teams). It would be nice to have this officially integrated. Secondarily two-factor authentication would be a great addition for logins!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We monitor carrier infrastructure and firewalls for hundreds of customers. We use this to proactively place tickets with ISPs for down circuits and avoid waiting for a customer to call us with a ticket. It gives our customers a faster resolution, and we are proactive with issues that may not be immediately apparent such as minor packet loss!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Test it in a lab! Open source version is a great way to see if it is a good fit.

Most complete monitoring tool
What do you like best about the product?
The simplicity it takes us to go from zero to see everything that is going on in our or clients infrastructures, systems and applications.
There's nothing like CheckMK in the market.
There's nothing like CheckMK in the market.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, there's not much to say. I believe that it could focus more on the application monitoring itself (APM). SSO would also be a great improvement.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Every client I've implemented CheckMK got to know their real infrastructure problems, even those they thought they didn't have. The vast amount of monitoring features gives us a great insight into the actual state of our systems.
It is very simple to implement in environment
What do you like best about the product?
Very simple and quick to implement in environment.
What do you dislike about the product?
some problems with automatic update on redhat/centos
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Monitor whole infrastructure ;). We know earlier, for example, that the disk space is almost full, and we have time to react before system stop.
Using the raw edition for more than a year. I'm pretty satisfied with it.
What do you like best about the product?
It has a large number of plugins, and they work as expected.
What do you dislike about the product?
It has a complicated user interface, and the plugin installation on the clients is not that easy in the raw edition.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having a monitoring tool like this is a great plus, cause I like to get alerts before my users realize there's a problem.
Checkmk becomes a mandatory and vital component to monitor Healthcare Infrastructure and Software

Scalability, performance, and the ability to discover relevant monitoring parameters/services automatically

GUI-Access to Rulesets within the versions 1.x.x

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Proactive detection of issues on critial Healthcare Infrastructure
- Monitor more then 100 dedicated sites connected via VPN
- The ability to monitor heterogenous multi vendor/os environments (AIX,SunOS,Linux,Windows)

Recommendations to others considering the product:
The high number of features and possibilities can be a bit confusing at the beginning. Focus first on basics, like downloading the checkmk-agent and using the the discovery funtion to lookup available services.

Clear to understand and easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
In my opinion the architecture behind. After first impression and first overview its easy to use and seems to be robust but nice.
What do you dislike about the product?
First overview is not so handy. Because it goes another way.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Monitoring my it landscape without complex configuration
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't block after your first impression. Maybe you be something like called confused and/or overhelmed. Take your time and read the docs/first steps. Checkmk goes another way and it is a good way in my opinion!
Interessante Vorträge, gute Workshops und ein fabelhaftes Community Feeling
What do you like best about the product?
Technical based Views of errors and a lot of information in one view
What do you dislike about the product?
More/better Plugins for Cisco Products. e.g. ISE. and more details of SPAN ports by default
Faster adaption if APIs are changing of Products.
Sometimes if server react slow the Health checkers are going to 100% and all Hosts seemed to be down. We are discussing this since over a year. In this case checkmk has to know that no Information is coming because of the helper processes.

Powerful monitoring solution
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to set up initially, powerful to use. To get a useful monitoring also of a complex installation is easy. Then there are a ton of possibilities to enhance and optimize it.
Awesome support team!
Awesome support team!
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the design is more from a theoretical point of view, not from a workflow perspective.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having a good monitoring solution solves, well, being blind to the health status of the system. With tribe29 there is also competent, fast and very helpful support available, directly from the makers.
