Zenoss Reviews
"IT monitoring and analytics platform for infrastructure, applications, and cloud"
Overall: Zenoss really helped us understand our application performance, especially the poorly performing applications.
Pros: Zenoss has been around since 2005, so they have a wealth of IT monitoring experience and background. They first started making waves as a VMware partner and have since evolved to focus on cloud and even containers. The breadth of their offering is quite vast and the new Zenoss Cloud offering is especially good for smaller companies who don't want to deal with infrastructure. They also offer both agent less and agent based collection (collects and statd), which is refreshing. Since containers are the new orange, we get support for Docker and Kubernetes, along with AI-enhanced machine learning for data ingested.
Cons: Previously it was a bit heavyweight in terms of the deployment but Zenoss Cloud obviates this concern. Difficult to do initial pricing comparison, you have to request a quote directly from their sales team. You also can't just download their software and take it for a spin, you need to engage with their sales team to get a demo or trial of the software.
"zenoss the best"
Pros: Zenos is a modular monitoring tool facilitating the incorporation of new features and capable of monitoring various types of devices such as Linux computers, Windows, switches and routers. It has a web interface very easy to operate.
Cons: It should have greater integration with third-party application performance tools that would make it easier to use the tool.
"A good tool for monitoring infrastructure!!!"
Pros: some features are: Auto discovery of devices, enterprise ready, skins ton enhance look and feel, device modeling by network, software, services, applications....
Cons: A little complicated installation of the product requires certain skills, but there is good documentation in this regard.
"Zenoss is a great monitoring package for hardware."
Overall: I have used Zenoss at multiple organizations and its flexibility and power never ceases to amaze me. Its can be customized to each installation.
Pros: Power and flexibility
