Truly a great tool to monitor server status and resource usage. The custom alert options helps us to create and fine tune thresholds and greatly improve response time. We are visually able to understand where the resources are being utilized and how the servers can be optimized for better over all performance Zabbix has made it very clear and straight forward to monitor server status and conduct effective health checks.

Like

Fast, reliable, scalable. Offers an enormous quantity of official templates that will let you save a lot of time during the configuration. Can be customized and integrated with other tools, API service is very powerful. All these features in a modern tool. Last but not least you can rely on a large community of users, and official support plans will let you sleep peacefully.

Dislike

The false positives generated by Zabbix on the servers is sometimes hard to manage but with proper finetuning we can get better results.

Dislike

Very dense and information-rich interface, a bit old school, more oriented towards use by engineers than managers who want appealing graphics.

Dislike

There isn't a specific thing i don't like, but when you start using Zabbix you need to take your time as the tool is wide and in some cases a bit complex.
