Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in IT Infrastructure Monitoring."One of the most valuable features of BigPanda is its user-friendly interface."
"The main thing that we like about BigPanda is the user interface."
"The best of a bad lot was the error message deduping."
"A user-friendly solution."
"The solution is user-friendly and has good performance and certification."
"The event correlation is really good and it is able to reduce the noise. It is a good tool for anomaly detection."
"We have also made extensive use of the outbound integrations to ticketing systems (JIRA) and collaboration tools (Slack). The main driver for us has been getting all alerting into a single UI and enabling us to streamline our incident management process."
"Alert deduplication and correlation - In an environment like the NOC where you're ingesting hundreds and thousands of alerts from various monitoring sources, it's time consuming and difficult to go through individual alerts and also difficult to spot critical issues. It's been great to have BigPanda not only deduplicate alerts but also correlate alerts that are seemingly unrelated, to create a clearer picture."
"The product is easy to deploy."
"The product's initial setup is easy."
"The usability needs to improve, because it is a pure code environment."
"The solution could improve by having better integration."
"Analytics is an area for improvement, being able to break down the actions that are being taken by users of BigPanda, as well as the auto-magical work that is being done by BigPanda."
"Lacks sufficient dashboard features."
"Our infrastructure is quite large - tens of thousands of servers, often with 30-plus checks running on each host with one minute intervals. This generates a lot of data often in bursts (when we have a large scale failure). This has caused some delay in the ingestion pipeline."
"The observability can be enriched with regards to infrastructure and the application-integrated environment. The dashboard and reports could be improved."
"The UI for this solution could be improved. It is very hard to find what you are looking for."
"BigPanda attempts a little of everything and fails at most."
"The product’s scalability is an area with certain limitations, making it an area where improvements are required."
"Instana Infrastructure Monitoring needs to support monitoring of the .NET framework since it is one of the areas where the solution currently has shortcomings."
