We performed a comparison between TruView and Zabbix based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The single dashboard is a valuable feature."
"We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"The most valuable feature for us was the ability to monitor sites and get a nice overview of all the data in a single view."
"Zabbix has a roadmap and they are continuously and frequently adding new features."
"I'm supervising all the IT departments, and Zabbix seems quite good for them. It provides graphics and information in real time. We get alerts about crashes on the system, enabling us to quickly repair issues. We can easily find devices with problems."
"The template system in Zabbix is very beneficial as it saves time in configuration."
"The basic setup is very easy."
"They've already added extra features, such as noise-canceling and facial recognition, which is great."
"The initial setup, while not simple, is easier than other products."
"The most valuable feature is the support for monitoring Cisco switches."
"The level of discovery-based configuration that lets us auto-configure the monitoring for various systems is a valuable feature."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"One area that could be improved is the reporting features. In the version transformation from ten to eleven, the platform changed from a Windows-based platform to a Linux-based platform. As a result, the previous reporting feature using Crystal Reports was no longer available. Instead, we had to generate PDF dashboard reports, which were not as flexible."
"I had problems using Zabbix when working with SUSE Enterprise; many companies use SUSE."
"Zabbix isn't a great tool for cloud-specific monitoring - its connection to public clouds needs to be improved. Other areas for improvement would be the lack of dashboards and integrations."
"Its UI should be improved. They did some improvements in version 5, but it could benefit from some more work. Its integrations should also be improved. They've been active for one year, and they seem to have noticed that. It has new integrations, but it could benefit from more integrations. As far as I know, there is no model to push statistics, metrics, or events towards Zabbix. This type of API isn't yet there, whereas some other tools provide an API for this."
"They should open an SSH session from the web interface."
"The reporting features need improvement, especially detailed inventory reporting. Since it's freeware, reporting may not be a major focus."
"When we have a problem, we have to do a lot of research to solve it."
"If you want to use all of the features then you have to pay a licensing fee."
"The event correlation could be better."
