Overall Satisfaction with Nagios

We use Nagios all over the organization. We have several departments and each one uses an instance of Nagios to monitor their applications and infrastructure. The most important department that uses Nagios is our Networks Operations Center team. They are monitoring all our infrastructure 24/7 and configuring alerts to notify users about the status of their applications.
  • Monitoring infrastructure status
  • Alerts about infrastructure status
  • Reporting about services and checks
  • You need experience to configure checks.
  • Would like to see a cloud solution.
  • Positive impact: get alerts on any issue we have.
  • Positive impact: make a decision quickly if an issue comes up.
We selected Nagios over other vendors like Cacti and Zabbix because it was easy to use and implement, and had better integrations.
I don't know if there is a less appropriate scenario. If you have an infrastructure and need to monitor it, Nagios is the best option. Not only can you monitor, but Nagios also alerts users and allows you to take actions depending on the alert. It helps a lot with automatization and is a tool you must have in your infrastructure.
