Find out in this report how the two IT Infrastructure Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
Initially, the CapEx was higher than VMware's, but considering the operational cost over time, it has been beneficial.
They respond within five minutes and provide excellent assistance.
Nutanix support is excellent, and their response time is extremely fast.
If the user interface isn’t presenting data well, it becomes difficult to manage when scaling.
I rate the scalability as ten out of ten.
It is very stable.
Even after applying the upgrade, we had to patch again as there was a problem with Prism.
The entire Nutanix solution is stable.
Many tools have poor user interfaces, making them hard to manage and navigate.
The GUI could be improved. It's a bit too basic.
The presales and marketing team should inform clients about resource requirements, such as RAM used by CVM, to help manage expectations.
Additionally, hardware dependency is a concern, as not all hardware devices can be integrated with Prism Central and Prism Element.
We are using the free, open-source version.
The pricing for the Nagios XI product is good and better than other solutions.
The cost is high, and the license payment is not easy in Africa due to numerous intermediaries between users and solution providers.
At first, the cost seemed heavy, but over time, its cost-effectiveness became evident.
Nagios XI simplifies our setup and reduces the time spent configuring monitoring tools.
The alerting system is very effective.
It simplifies firmware and software updates, making it hassle-free for IT engineers.
One of the most useful features is the disaster recovery setup, which includes two clusters, one for our production server and another for our recovery site.
Nagios XI provides monitoring of all mission-critical infrastructure components, including applications, services, operating systems, network protocols, systems metrics, and network infrastructure. Third-party add-ons provide tools for monitoring virtually all in-house and external applications, services, and systems.
Nagios XI uses a powerful Core 4 monitoring engine that provides users with the highest levels of server monitoring performance. This high degree of performance enables nearly limitless scalability and monitoring powers.
With Nagios XI, stakeholders can check up on their infrastructure status using the role-based web interface. Sophisticated dashboards enable access to monitoring information and third-party data. Administrators can easily set up permissions so users can only access the infrastructure they are authorized to view.
Nagios XI Benefits and Features
Some of the benefits and top features of using Nagios XI include:
Reviews from Real Users
Nagios XI stands out among its competitors for a number of reasons. Several major ones are its integration options and monitoring abilities, as well as its alerting features.
David P., a senior DevOps engineer at EML Payments Ltd, writes, “We use Nagios as a network discovery tool. We use Nagios to maintain our uptime statistics and to monitor our services. It has allowed us to be much more sophisticated in our monitoring and alerting.”
An IT-OSS manager at a comms service provider notes, “Nagios XI has a custom API feature, and we can expose custom APIs for our integration. This is a great feature.”
Nutanix makes infrastructure invisible, elevating IT to focus on the applications and services that power their business. The Nutanix enterprise cloud platform leverages web-scale engineering and consumer-grade design to natively converge compute, virtualization and storage into a resilient, software-defined solution with rich machine intelligence. The result is predictable performance, cloud-like infrastructure consumption, robust security, and seamless application mobility for a broad range of enterprise applications.
We monitor all IT Infrastructure Monitoring reviews to prevent fraudulent reviews and keep review quality high. We do not post reviews by company employees or direct competitors. We validate each review for authenticity via cross-reference with LinkedIn, and personal follow-up with the reviewer when necessary.
