User Testimonials
	Centreon	Checkmk
Likelihood to Recommend	Centreon It is a good product that is robust. They have a free version that makes the value good. If it cost money then the install and plugins would need polishing. But overall it is a good product that does what it says it does. But definitely not for beginners you do need some knowledge to set it up and get it running Incentivized TS Terry Schultz IT Consultant Read full review	tribe29 If you are looking for a great free to use SNMP monitoring agent Checkmk is the way to go. They far exceed the competition in that area. If the paid option is the way to go their competitors might have a leg up with ease of use and upgradability. Regardless I highly recommending trying their software. Incentivized DH DJ Hammett IT Manager Read full review

Alternatives Considered	Centreon Centreon does a good job against these products. Of courseCentreon can be free and that is what we used. So it is not quite the same the other products are more polished and support is readily available. But Centreon is still good and if you have some knowledge can work just as well Incentivized TS Terry Schultz IT Consultant Read full review	tribe29 Checkmk free version is far superior to PRTG free version. For the paid versions PRTG was more efficient and easier to use. Checkmk provides unlimited services on their free version while PRTG is limited. We like to use the free version to avoid monthly or annual costs while still utilizing the same SNMP features. Incentivized DH DJ Hammett IT Manager Read full review
