    Pandora FMS
    I believe Pandora FMS is a solution that adapts to any type of scenario; it's useful for small businesses as well as large organizations. It more than meets the need to have a comprehensive monitoring system capable of sending alerts instantly and consulting historical data, logs, and trends. Additionally, for small businesses, the free version will be more than sufficient in most cases. And for those who do not want to deploy the service on-premise, there is an option for MaaS (Monitoring as a Service).

    • The only problem I really had was the adjustment abilities of the GUI, otherwise it was a great product.

    • The interface is not intuitive due to the number of options it has and its organization.
    • It has a free version with limitations, and another paid version. The commercial one has a quite high cost.
    • It has a certain learning curve.

    The solution is very complete, and even includes extras such as IPAM.
    Deployment can be a bit unintuitive at first, but once you become familiar with the solution and thanks to its automatic deployment options it ends up being easier than it seemed. The power and options of the solution are its greatest virtue.
