We performed a comparison between ManageEngine OpManager and Nagios Core 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."
"The single dashboard is a valuable feature."
"The solution is easy to deploy. It's also easy to manage and monitor the environment. Instead of being reactive, it's proactive."
"Monitoring is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"ManageEngine OpManager is user-friendly and easy to use. Additionally, useful for basic monitoring."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its ability to reach most of our network devices and get the most from them."
"Some of the most valuable features are the accessibility of the solution and the fact that it is simpler than other products. For example, discovering devices in the network is very simple, making it user-friendly."
"The dashboard, versatility and larger horizon are valuable."
"The features we found most valuable in ManageEngine OpManager are the probe server and reporting because they're pretty good features."
"Device monitoring is a good tool of this solution."
"We mostly use Nagios Core to integrate with Python and Bash Script."
"Other products are good but from the configuration point of view Nagios is really very lightweight. The price is really good in my opinion. Another important thing is that my Nagios engine still works with Dual core 8GB ram for the last 10 years."
"The application performance monitoring feature is valuable."
"Dashboard provides monitor of total assets."
"The most valuable feature is the performance parameters of the system."
"The notifications are definitely one of the most valuable features of Nagios Core. We know what to look for and what to expect when things are down."
"Key features include the GUI interface, its notification capabilities, and the real-time reporting."
"Provides timely notifications."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"There are certain things that are not possible to do with Op Manager. It's a solution that still needs time to develop."
"The only problem with it is that the setup isn't very intuitive. I know that they just upgraded the product to make it a little bit easier to use, but compared to some of the other platforms, it is not easy to configure it, set it up, and get it running. However, once you have set it up and got it running, it runs great."
"We encounter challenges in monitoring cloud services. I would also appreciate it if there was someone available to walk you through the documentation."
"The licensing model is confusing."
"They should add more features to URL monitoring."
"With regard to configurations, however, it would be nice to have more documentation on SNMP configurations. For example, if I want to add a new vendor, it would be great if ManageEngine provided the requirements for that vendor, such as the commands needed."
"The pricing could be cheaper. The initial integration does cost a bit."
"The two views into the system are very good but could be extended to further customization to fit the need of end users in a variety of roles."
"Would benefit from aggregations if a particular server goes down."
"Bandwidth monitoring is the pain point for me because Nagios Core does not monitor bandwidth effectively like Cacti does."
"There is room for improvement in the graphics."
"The initial setup process could be easier."
"Nagios Core is limited in terms of distributed setups, and there is no central view for remote data centers."
"It's not that easy to install the product itself. Also, the UI is a bit hard for regular users to navigate through."
"Nagios Core can improve the graphical interface, it would make things a little easier."
"We're using the free version, which limits us in terms of the things that we can do. If we had the paid version, a lot of our issues would probably go away. For example, we can't isolate instances that are being built or updated with the production ones. When they're being built, on Nagios, they're showing in red. It'd be nice to be able to partition those off until they're all green, and then we can bring them into the environment. This is probably because we've got the free version and not the paid version. If we went for the paid version, it would probably allow us to do exactly what we want to or remove the restrictions that we have, but if we are able to isolate instances in the free version, it would make life much easier."
