    Icinga GmbH
    Icinga is a world-class monitoring system. It can be used for most general monitoring situations. It is not a silver bullet, however, and there are instances where domain-specific monitoring systems are necessary. However, the output from those monitoring systems can be funneled into Icinga as a central monitoring and alerting system.

    Telesoft
    Telesoft is well-suited for companies with large and complex telecommunications expenses, companies that need to automate tedious tasks, companies that need to customize their TEM solutions, and companies that have a need for inventory management and wireless provisioning. On the other hand, Telesoft's TEM software may be less appropriate for companies with small or simple telecommunications expenses, companies that do not need all the features of TEM software, and companies that have limited IT resources

    Cons
    Icinga GmbH
    • High learning curve, setting up Icinga from scratch can be a bit of a challenge starting out.
    • If the io2db process fails you UI stops updating, which can be very frustrating.
    • There is no simple mechanism for adding new hosts and services through the web UI, it's all very config-file based.

    Icinga is a solid solution which does everything it promises. It is backwards compatible with most Nagios instances, making the transition very easy. Once you get the hang of installing new plugins and editing configuration files expanding its monitoring capabilities are easy.

    Icinga is better than Nagios because of its nicer user interface. New Relic can monitor CPU/memory and disk usage, but it's more of a performance and application troubleshooting tool rather than monitoring

    Telesoft
    One key difference between Telesoft and Tangoe is that Telesoft's TEM software provides real-time tracking and analysis of usage data, which allows companies to identify patterns, trends, and areas where cost savings can be achieved. Tangoe offers TEM software that includes wireless and wireline expense management, mobile device management, and IT asset management

    Return on Investment
    Icinga GmbH
    • With one check you know which applications are faulty e.g. after an upgrade. Which is big time saver
    • You easily detect outages ion the applications so that your customer ideally does not even realize there was an outage.
    • Detect if the environment does deliver the same result as in the same time as before to detect shortages.
    • Additional information when debugging. Saved us several hours where we could simply point to a database which was slow.
