I use Nagios Core for monitoring purposes only. I have added enough extensions to the Nagios Core, and the company does not want to add any new features because whatever I have added is completely worth it. I have created Nagios Core projects to improve its functionality, and we use it to monitor more than 2,500 services, servers, virtual machines, and network devices in a 24/7 environment. We also use it for email alerts and SMS alerts.

We primarily use it to offer system-style monitoring for internal customers. We usually use a tactical solution to solve problems in the monitoring space for devices and hardware or for things that need monitoring.
We use Nagios for network monitoring of our devices. All devices are listed on Nagios, which alerts us if they are running properly or if there is a shutdown or any issues like a network break. Alerts are generated, and we receive notifications via email or SMS.

Our company is sales based and we offer a test service to our enterprise-level customers. We use the solution to monitor our test servers and have 25 users throughout our company.
Our primary use case is for monitoring the security of our environment. We have specific services running on our Windows systems and Nagios provides us with notifications regarding the status, whether things are running properly or not. Sites hosted on IIS can also be monitored. We are customers of Nagios and I'm an infrastructure lead.

Our primary use case for this solution is an APM for application performance monitoring. For example, we deployed the solution on-premises so we could observe the solution. We look at the threats at the web containers, the data source, and all these components under this monitoring.
I use this solution to monitor my network. There are 25 agents in my country. This solution sends me notifications if any equipment is down. It's deployed on-premises. I'm currently using version 4.3.3. There are five people in my company who use this solution.
We are using Nagios Core mainly for servers. We check the network hardware connectivity. We check for the availability of the network and for hardware failures. We have deployed Nagios Core on a VM and it's working very well. The specs of the VM are very low because it doesn't require so much storage

It is used for monitoring services on a bunch of virtual machines. In terms of the version, we're fairly up to date. We are perhaps not the most up-to-date, but we're fairly current.
I'm primarily using Nagios Core to monitor infrastructure like servers, virtual machines, and telephone usage like IP-DECT antennas. I don't use all of Nagios Core's data functionality. I only use the monitoring features.
We use Nagios for one of our customers to monitor all the servers, firewalls, routers, and cameras. While monitoring the server we get alerts, this enables us to raise a ticket and notify end users that we are aware of the issue before they need to notify us. We have 80 people using the dashboard and getting the alerts. Depending on the number of servers, routers, and firewalls we are monitoring in current clusters. When one cluster goes down, it will automatically take data from another cluster. We support 24/7 because our client is a financial company, if the critical servers go down, they would face financial issues.

The overall objective to use Nagios Core is "organization doesn't want to pay high monitoring cost" & still wanted to monitor entire data center infra. So, deployed Nagios Core to monitor typical server resource utilization parameters such as CPU, Memory & Disk Utilization. Later, we configured PNP4Nagios which provides graphical level representation & to see when the WARNING & CRITICAL Level crosses. PNP4Nagios became very useful to get all historical (mostly past 1 year) records when asked.

We used Nagios Core to monitor our servers in other countries. Our main server is in Cairo, while we monitor other servers in Germany, which are hosting Jenkins and other web services to make sure that the infrastructure is stable and if anything goes wrong it reports it automatically.
