We performed a comparison between Dell CloudIQ and Zabbix based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two IT Infrastructure Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The tool for forecasting capacity is valuable."
"Has really nice roll-up dashboards."
"Fewer vulnerabilities have been observed in the four years we have used the solution."
"The best thing about this solution is that you can check for the infrastructure and system updates that you might need to be compliant with the Cloud."
"Mobile application is the most valuable feature for us. We can monitor all the storages on our phones. It's really good."
"We detect problems before the customer does and before it actually happens using the predictive functions in Zabbix."
"There are lots of great features and functionality within the solution."
"I really enjoy network traffic triggers that allow us to check traffic threshold from ISP."
"Health and communication links availability."
"We use it to monitor and manage our servers."
"Zabbix has a roadmap and they are continuously and frequently adding new features."
"Zabbix is quite stable once it is set up. We haven't had any post-setup issues."
"It can send messages to our ticketing system."
"The reporting capabilities of this solution could be improved."
"In terms of improvement, they should enhance the product range."
"PowerScale is the only file system offered and that is limiting."
"Doesn't do well in terms of integrating with technologies other than Dell."
"Supporting legacy systems is an area that can be improved."
"I think the reporting part of Zabbix can be improved in terms of more user-friendly graphics to display the collected data. Many simple users who don't know how to use Zabbix properly might get confused by the reporting, although at the same time it is very versatile for my company."
"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."
"Its UI should be improved. They did some improvements in version 5, but it could benefit from some more work. Its integrations should also be improved. They've been active for one year, and they seem to have noticed that. It has new integrations, but it could benefit from more integrations. As far as I know, there is no model to push statistics, metrics, or events towards Zabbix. This type of API isn't yet there, whereas some other tools provide an API for this."
"The dashboard and the graph section could be a little bit more professional."
"I had problems using Zabbix when working with SUSE Enterprise; many companies use SUSE."
"In terms of user-friendliness, large maps could be more interactive. We should be able to click on some areas and move some objects. It would make it simpler to see things while analyzing some dedicated parameters."
"I would like to see a more flexible mobile client, and better HA out of the box."
"The main problem with Zabbix is that you have to spend time writing templates for all of the products that you have."
