We performed a comparison between Azure Bastion and Zabbix based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"It provides all the security to us. Without getting on the internet, we can access our servers. We can access our desktop through our web browser. We don't need to run the mstsc command and login to the VM. All those things are not required."
"Azure Bastion makes it easy to provide quick virtual machine access to our customers."
"The interface is available in the edit portal."
"The ability to operate the product with scripting is excellent."
"As an Azure consultant, for me, it is the best way to give the administrator access as you can manage the permission - including who can access Bastion."
"The product's setup is easy."
"The most significant advantage lies in its runbook features, particularly beneficial for our infrastructure team."
"The connection to virtual machines is very useful."
"Like other common Linux distributions, some of the most valuable features of this solution are the ease of use and deployment. It's simple and has a lot of packages and a lot of software."
"The most valuable feature is the alert and alarm monitoring."
"The most valuable features in Zabbix are those that help us overcome bottlenecks in CPU usage, as well as reduce memory delay. I know that we have only reached the tip of the iceberg of what Zabbix's features can do for us, and we have not used all of them yet."
"We like the user-interface for this solution, which makes it an easy to use tool."
"Simple network monitoring that is easy to install and manage."
"There are lots of great features and functionality within the solution."
"The template system in Zabbix is very beneficial as it saves time in configuration."
"We use Zabbix to monitor our organization's IT infrastructure and workstations. We don't use Microsoft Intune since it's expensive. The tool's real-time alerting system has proved crucial for us, particularly when a new device joins a network that is not one of our own devices. It notifies us about the presence of this new device, allowing us to investigate further. Additionally, it alerts us about disk usage, memory usage, and the software installed on the machine."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"There are some challenges because Bastion is more compatible with Edge but not with the other browsers. As an organization, it doesn't make sense that we have to use only Edge. We should be able to access Bastion over Chrome, Mozilla, or Opera. It should be our choice."
"While general support is valuable, having a detailed breakdown of the specific issues would contribute to a more streamlined and efficient resolution process."
"When you have a boot issue on Windows, you cannot use Azure Bastion to fix it. You have to use the Azure console or the VM console, and it is very limited."
"The solution breaks down sometimes."
"You are charged for retrieving your own data."
"We are not able to copy and paste files directly into the server over the patch host. We have to transfer files over to Azure Storage."
"The protocol speed could be faster."
"Look and feel."
"The user interface could be better."
"When using this solution in enterprise monitoring, you are able to see that there are some issues with equipment that could be causing a problem. Sometimes you want to make a root command that you do not want to be executed automatically. What we have tried to do is open an SSH session directly from the solution's interface but it is not possible."
"There's a small module of APM, however, it is not an enhanced version. People usually ask for a full-fledged APM solution."
"It would be helpful if they translated the documentation to Cyrillic languages."
"I had problems using Zabbix when working with SUSE Enterprise; many companies use SUSE."
"I want Zabbix to improve the UX/UI. Zabbix doesn't use a JavaScript chart for images, and I want them to improve this."
"We had some scalability issues with a large number of nodes."
