Overall Satisfaction with Zabbix
Zabbix is a simple to setup and easy to manage solution. Very little in-depth tech skills needed to deploy initially due to pre-made ISOs and virtual machines, and with the help of a raft of templates available for free online to make it an essential monitoring tool for any business. Support is available if you want it - although from my perspective it looked to be costly if you simply want light email only assistance on your setup.
- Keeping an eye on our asset estate via SNMP is easy
- Single Pane view
- Wealth of plugins available to then customise for alerting
- User interface is a little cumbersome, but it looks like newer versions are looking to resolve the menu system issues i found
- If you really delve in, you should be ready for some coding and tweaking
- Ability to pre-empt issues and stop business-critical outages has been amazing and well needed
- Ease of reviewing trends to help budget on space and network usage
- Very helpful to identify any possible network slow-downs
