Pandora FMS vs UVexplorer: Which is a better fit?

The software is highly secure, reliable and customizable and has a user-friendly UI. Additionally, the price point is competitive with other system monitoring and management solutions.

The worst thing about Pandora it's the lack of some basic functionalities like other products offer like correlation of metrics and the horrible UX.

It's like "bring your own monitoring service", you set it up and you use it. So it only depends on you and that it's great if you know what you are doing and you want to personalize everything.

The general feeling that Pandora FMS transmits is of robustness, at no time do you have the feeling that something is missing or that some module can do something else.

The quality and helpfulness of technical assistance is excellent. I love everything about the Pandora FMS workstation, especially the user interface.

For Debian/Ubuntu maybe a little tricky; the configuration interface maybe hard at glance because is for general purpose along all the program.

I love that even we are only trying this software and using the free version it works really well. It has saved time to our collaborators and made our job easier and better.

It's difficult to teach new people how to use and overlook the platform.

The experience has been very good. The product has some very good features for mapping and backup.

Also, where line cross can be a little confusing.

Again, the hierarchical networks look great in the software. And the support has consistently been outstanding and very patient.

Also felt that mesh network mapping is little confusing.

It is a true partnership with our companies and we are thrilled with the support that we receive. We also feel that we have a voice in updates and are contributing to future features in the product.

It no did not always pick up the links between devices.

Yes, i have recommended UV explorer for couple of my clients and it have always satisfied the requirement in better way.

It seems to be complicated if your not aware of networking knowledge and also not so user-friendly GUI. There is no web application access as we need to login to UV Server all the time.
