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."
"This is a very good solution and it is simple to use, for any company."
"Nagios XI is stable."
"Nagios XI helps us monitor the bandwidth of the internet connection, HTTP, DNS, active directory services, and exchange data availability. We have multiple servers to monitor databases, availability of servers, and ping."
"I can monitor a software made in-house to software of bigger companies."
"The Script Module in Nagios is really easy to use and is really cost efficient."
"It is an open-source platform with valuable features for performance and stability."
"Nagios allows us to configure any device so that we can send pager alerts when people don't have access to emails. It also allows us to schedule downtime and maintenance."
"BPI: It allows defining peripherals to map business criticality for efficient monitoring, as required."
"The most important feature for us is the interface statistics, because our customer normally asks us for bandwidth utilization reports. Statseeker has very descriptive transmit and receive information."
"This solution helps in terms of troubleshooting, and you can do capacity planning with it."
"It is fairly simple and easy to use as an all-purpose network monitor."
"Grouping, Threshold/alerts, Netflow analyser, Private MIB object support are most valuable as they can provide more visibility into network performance, and for network troubleshooting."
"This solution provides us with a quicker response in troubleshooting."
"Whether it is a down network switch or a down router, we can get back online faster for the customers."
"Being able to look back historically at the uptime and downtime is invaluable."
"Statseeker helps to quickly see if you have a spike or something going on. In the future, we need to get NetFlow in the tool so we can see what the IP is."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The PNP4Nagios plugin not working easily with XI is an issue for me, because some open source monitoring plugins do not work out of the box. But in the end, you learn to live with it."
"The product does not have SAP monitoring."
"We'd like to see more integration capabilities."
"The reporting structure could be more streamlined."
"Open-source software is usually not user-friendly."
"The technical support is variable - sometimes I get answers, but most of my tickets go unanswered."
"It is really difficult to integrate Nagios XI with another system to generate logs and alert our management of failures in security infrastructure."
"The way Nagios displays information isn't easy for a new user to understand. It's not intuitive enough. You need to read some tutorials or be trained to understand what it's displaying. Also, I think it needs more features to improve network visibility because there are some things you can't detect."
"I would like to see some layer two and layer three topology mappings, similar to what NNMi and SolarWinds presents."
"Detailed data can be hard to extract in CSV form. Sometimes, being able to dump down raw data would be good so various time periods across a longer period could be analysed. At present, data can be presented within Statseeker, but there is lots of "white space" between data points."
"We haven't seen an ROI."
"With Statseeker I'd like to see some flow, i.e. what's tuning-up the network. The trend I like is managing the traffic load by going to the cloud."
"Maybe they could provide a little bit more flexibility on creating custom dashboards."
"The user interface needs a great deal of improvement."
"I would like to see fully automatic updates so that our version is always current."
"I would like to see a friendlier user interface in the administration tool."
