Overall Satisfaction with Zabbix
It's used across the whole organization. It's used to monitor the server parameters, application URLs, logs etc.
- Server monitoring
- URL availability
- We write custom application monitoring scripts and send the data to Zabbix.
- Ability to authenticate to a webpage and monitor, just like keynote.
- The web scenarios doesn't work well with REST end points. No feature to read the response header.
- Had positive impact by triggering alerts before the customer starts noticing the issue.
- AppDynamics and Datadog
Zabbix is cost effective maybe and certainly a good tool but not the best. The other ones have features that Zabbix is missing and we use couple of them.
