More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Pros →

"The features we found most valuable in ManageEngine OpManager are the probe server and reporting because they're pretty good features.""I liked Network Configuration Manager. They had some pretty decent features there, and they also had pretty good monitoring and alerts.""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.""We don't have to keep an eye on it; it has a good automation option, which keeps us informed. It gives very less false positives. Overall, a really great product.""ManageEngine OpManager is user-friendly and easy to use. Additionally, useful for basic monitoring.""Defining thresholds and other alerting criteria is fairly simple and would not require a lot of training. This is very useful if you are managing a large environment.""Some of the useful features are NetFlow and analytics.""The integration with the firewall monitoring, the security monitoring, is great."

More ManageEngine OpManager Pros →

"We use the product to monitor server applications.""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.""Our customers like that Nagios Core is an open source solution. It can be customized to our customers' specific needs.""I like that it's very simple to install, easy to manage and deploy, and easy to use for monitoring.""The most valuable feature depends on the project. It's great if you need to check to ensure a service is running 24/7. I can use the full solution for free, and it's flexible. If I need to add a dashboard, I can integrate it with Nagios. Cloud synchronization is wonderful.""Nagios Core is stable.""It is fairly easy to set up, and we can monitor pretty much everything we want to.""The most valuable feature is the performance parameters of the system."

More Nagios Core Pros →

Cons
"The technical support needs improvement.""The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."

More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Cons →

"Some of our customers have been asking that OpManager have a feature to monitor the operating system, however, I tell them that Endpoint Central is doing that. You can buy endpoints and then OpManager, and they integrate between them, and everything is okay.""There should be an option to get mobile notifications or SMS mirror notifications for critical issues. That way, when we don't have access to email, we can still receive notifications via our phones.""You cannot resolve 100 percent of the issues yourself. You would need to reach out to the support. It needs to be cheaper.""The dashboard could include more features.""The licensing for this solution is not straightforward and should be improved.""We would like link monitoring included. At times we need to monitor those specific links closely.""We had some stability issues at the outset that have since been resolved.""There are certain things that are not possible to do with Op Manager. It's a solution that still needs time to develop."

More ManageEngine OpManager Cons →

"Making it a little easier to configure and set up from the start would help. There are multiple layers that you have to wade through to be able to set it up, to do it the right way, and to get it to do what you want it to do.""Cloud monitoring is an area for improvement because there aren't too many plugins available.""The UI is a little outdated and graphics could be displayed in a better way.""Nagios Core can improve the graphical interface, it would make things a little easier.""The user interface could be more interactive because it is pretty basic.""The mapping is a little hard.""The core version is no match for the XI version.""Nagios Core could improve by adding a user interface. If you want the user interface you have to use Nagios XI."

  • "The initial cost is low and the add-ons are reasonable."

  • "The licensing is on a yearly basis and the pricing is on the cheaper side."
  • "In terms of pricing, I would rate it a two out of five. It was expensive."
