Businesses of all sizes looking for external web monitoring solutions to assure their websites and applications are performing and running smoothly at all times and to alert you when they are not.
Zabbix has been designed to scale from small environments with a few devices to large ones with hundreds of thousands of monitored devices.
I love that it allows us to scale confidently & spot issues as quickly as they manifest on our web sites. It's awesome to be notified and address issues in almost real time.
The ability to troubleshoot a problem was a bit difficult to do but that may have just been my lack of knowledge of the product.
This is especially helpful to the site owners on my team when they go to review standards for how all of the sites are functioning and to see where there are opportunities to improve their sites.
It is a little difficult to understand the pricing sometimes.
My experience has been great. Many of the alerts we have received have been critical to our business and ensuring we put forth the best sites out for our patients, doctors, employees, etc.
I really don't have anything I don't like about it.
The simplicity and the price. We are very happy with it and I don't think any manager will oppose to the purchase approval, it's so inexpensive.
Also depending on your server configuration, the AlertBot settings may get even trickier. More expensive than similar products.
I love the aspect of scalability in Zabbix. Zabbix is highly scalable and monitor thousands of servers, devices, and applications from a single instance making its performance outstanding.
Performance decrease on medium scale traffic. Configuring new environment is difficult.
The reporting function is excellent with beautiful graphics that show you what you need to know. There are more than enough options for notifications with email, SMS, Teams to mention a few.
Most complex part of in it is implementation and configuration for dashboard. Learning curves are sharp as it have limited engineer that work on it.
Using Zabbix is quite easy and effective to monitor the environment with proper graphical records and the cost is also good to consider. The support community is big and knowledgable.
If you don't know Linux, you will face a hard time while installation, but there are many youtube videos which will assist step by step installation.
Zabbix is the perfect solution for our organization to deliver proactive monitoring. It gives insights in our business processes and services.
Doesn't offer same flexibility you get from open source alternatives.
Grant W.: Hi there. My name's Grant. I'm a DevOps engineer. I would give Zabbix a four out of five rating. For more reviews, click below. Previous to using Zabbix, we were using Nagios for our monitoring. While it did seem to be okay, we found that Zabbix was a much better solution overall. We decided to go with [Nabbix 00:00:27] for our monitoring for multiple different reasons actually. The first one being the amount of different plugins that Zabbix has. We like the interface on it. We liked the speed of getting things set up. It seems to be a nice monitoring tool overall. We found getting set up with Zabbix to be relatively easily actually. We looked at all the options and deployed Zabbix within a couple of months. We have fine tuned it to our specific needs, and it seems to be working well. I would recommend anybody who wants to use Zabbix take a look at all the options. Take a look at all the plugins. Do your planning before you even start to look at rolling this out. Doing that will save you a lot of time in the long run, and it'll all be set up correctly and nicely for you.
