Checkmk
What do you like best about the product?
Checkmk is easy-to-use, comprehensive, and scalable IT monitoring and management solution that helps proactively identify and resolve issues before they impact end-users. Its advanced alerting system, comprehensive monitoring capabilities, and integration with other IT management tools make it a popular choice among IT teams.
What do you dislike about the product?
Complexity: Checkmk is a powerful tool that offers a lot of features and customization options. However, this can also make it complex to set up and configure. Some users may find the learning curve steep, especially if they are new to IT monitoring tools.
Resource-intensive: Because Checkmk monitors a wide range of IT infrastructure components, it can be resource-intensive, particularly when monitoring large environments. This may require more powerful hardware to support the tool, which could be a potential disadvantage for smaller organizations with limited resources.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Checkmk is solving several problems related to IT monitoring and management, including:
Proactive issue detection: One of the main problems Checkmk solves is the ability to proactively detect issues before they impact end-users. Checkmk's advanced alerting system helps IT teams to identify issues in real-time and take quick action to resolve them.
Comprehensive monitoring: Checkmk provides comprehensive monitoring capabilities for a wide range of IT infrastructure components, including servers, network devices, storage devices, applications, and cloud resources. This allows IT teams to monitor the entire IT environment from a single platform, reducing the need for multiple monitoring tools.
Centralized management: Checkmk provides a centralized management platform for IT infrastructure, allowing IT teams to manage all aspects of their IT environment from a single console. This simplifies the management process and reduces the risk of errors.
For us is a very important tool, because we propose this tool for monitoring some envirometns in our clients.

Fantastic Monitoring Solution
What do you like best about the product?
The biggest positives here are the number of things CheckMK actually does natively; for instance, I run Nagios for my alerting currently, and then Cacti for my KPI graphing and reporting; CheckMK is able to replace both of these platforms giving me less to maintain over time.
Couple this with the ability to pair remote engines to a central console for all your assets behind a single pane of glass (Something Cacti does today, but Nagios Core does not), so not only did this solution allow me to chop my tech footprint in half by combining everything I need under one application, but it significantly simplified asset management as my NOC no longer has to rely on multiple front end UIs for asset management.
The biggest plus by far is that while CheckMK does have an enterprise license tier, everything I listed and am using is available under the Raw or Community (Free) version of the product..
In 30 years of managing IT infrastructures, this is undoubtedly the best end-to-end monitoring solution I have ever used.

What do you dislike about the product?
Really the only 'negative' I can even think of is the enterprise licensing is (IMO) somewhat confusing to understand, but I almost cannot even call that a negative because, again, every bit of core functionality listed in my review is available for free, which means (As the licensing is based on services monitored, not hosts as I would expect) instead of having to try and figure out what that number is for service checks, I can set up literally everything using the free edition, and then if we decide we do need to upgrade to enterprise I can have the console tell me how many services I am monitoring as it would be a "lift and shift" at that point.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CheckMK has allowed me to seamlessly combine what Nagios Core, and Cacti were doing for me before while also simplifying alerting and management for my NOC staff!
Great monitoring solution
What do you like best about the product?
CheckMK is a great monitoring solution. It offers a huge feature set and can be easily expanded with your own checks, graphs, dashboards, and so on! It's very easy to set up and helps a lot in maintaining a stable IT infrastructure! CheckMK makes the life of system administrators much easier because you will never miss anything that's going on in your IT environment!
What do you dislike about the product?
If you want to write your own checks in python it could be a challenge to understand how the system works. But after a few hours, you should be able to implement your own checks!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With checkmk we will never miss anything again that's going on in our IT infrastructure. So we can focus on our daily business and do our important work and don't have to spend time investigating issues that could have been avoided!

The distributed monitoring approach works good
Checkmk has emphasis on extendability
REST API introduced is looking promising
The Tribe29 crew is always willing to help

What do you dislike about the product?
Minor releases introduce stability problems that Tribe29 crew has problems to analyze/fix
We need to invest time to troubleshoot Tribe29s problems due to lack of their own quality assurance
The performance of the system could be better
Some concepts don't feel very mature, like working with long plain text files

We see all relevant alarm for all system in one application. The notification can also inform our first line.
