Small to large businesses focused on delivering excellent customer experience, business success, and more.
From tech startups to multinational corporations, Sensu gives companies deep visibility into their infrastructure. We're backed by one of the largest open source communities in monitoring.
Provides great real-time tracking. Lots of great integrations and alerting options make it easy to stay on top of your systems.
It's pricy, there is no doubt about it. And it is difficult to adopt it for this reason.
It's a great, user friendly, and full of features analytics software. It's very easy to set up and gives you accessible yet rich information about how your app works.
The only drawback to this, is that it requires a very experienced team of developers to properly diagnose and understand what's going wrong with a piece of software.
Dashboarding perfromance report capability is also good, helps us to keep on top of our applications perfromance.
The designers and developers are clearly bad or mediocre.
It's clean and simple to setup and gives a great dashboard which helps get a quick overview of the performance of our SaaS application.
Its a very promising product, but the recent issues and the frequency of those issues have ruined the overall experience.
Sensu has a really great community where I have had the benefit of leveraging many community contributions but been able to give back to such an awesome community.
Do you know how hard it was to try and link sensu/chef/slack using the community plugins. There was no mentions of a sensu_snippet any where in the docs.
Furthermore it supports to accept events/metrics via Agent API or the built-in StatsD listener. The documentation is awesome and complete.
Most people do not manually instal sensu, they use config management, yet the documentations on how to get up and running using ansible or chef is very weak.
The overall experience with this software is really good and I recommend everyone to use it.
Can't set a different retry interval once a problem is detected, like you can in nagios.
I haven't dug very deep into the myriad customization available because I didn't need to. As a monitoring solution it pretty much serves perfectly.
