"The product's most valuable feature is its ability to provide insights into server status and alerts."
"There is a problems page that shows us every warning or problem that occurs on our VMs globally. The map screen is also really useful because this is something that was missing. I don't know every other tool in the market. So, I don't know if this is a good point of only Zabbix, or other tools are also doing it, but from my point of view, this is the most useful page that I use, along with the problems page that efficiently lists the problem, recovery time, ending hours, starting hours, and so on."
"We are able to do problem determination on runaway processes."
"Zabbix is very easy to implement."
"The integration capabilities and APIs are the best part."
"Zabbix can use old data to current data to set the threshold. We can use previous data to set the threshold."
"Zabbix helps to save time."
"The most valuable feature is the alert and alarm monitoring."
"During my testing, the features that I like the most are that it can be integrated with my system, and it provides me with reports of all of my servers."
"Lenovo XClarity can improve the dashboard integration. For example, graphs could be better. Additionally, more integration with other vendors is needed. For example, VMware has integration with a lot of vendors."
"They could enable notifications on emails and phones regarding control panel information."
"I would like to remotely connect to the computer, and Zabbix doesn't have this capability."
"Zabbix claims that there is an auto-discovery process but my team member was facing difficulty and was told that it's not really automatic, and there are some manual steps."
"It would be helpful if they translated the documentation to Cyrillic languages."
"I am having difficulties connecting it to Grafana, as well as some of the other plugins like Kibana."
"I had problems using Zabbix when working with SUSE Enterprise; many companies use SUSE."
"Documentation terminology could be improved."
"There are a lot of areas for improvement, specifically in the dashboards and reports functionalities."
"The GUI could be more intuitive. Also, we'd like streaming telemetry. Zabbix might have this feature, but I haven't seen it yet.
