Monitoring done rigth **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Government Administration | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 28, 2023 **What do you like best about Checkmk?** After using and administrating different monitoring systems like Nagios, Zabbix or PRTG, I always came back to CheckMK. The integration of new systems, the associated variance of monitoring, are so intuitive compared to the competition, also with regard to the user interface, that there can be no other decision regarding a software solution except CheckMK. **What do you dislike about Checkmk?** Even if the documentation is extensive, especially compared to other software vendors, it may be that just the one case, which is particularly critical, is not documented.

It is way more complete than our previous moinitoring software based on Nagios. **What do you dislike about Checkmk?** I dislike the UX of Checkmk, it is so complete, it has so many menus and options it is sometimes hard to find the thing that you want easily. Fortunately, the search engine in it makes the search easier, and the team is working on make the UX better. **What problems is Checkmk solving and how is that benefiting you?** Checkmk really helps us to industrialize the supervision of our IT department, whether virtual machines, databases or websites, checkmk is efficient and allows an automation of configurations which, once they have been done, are reducing greatly the time of addition of new supervised elements. **Official Response from Worathiti Manosroi:** > Hi, Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences.

The company (Checkmk GmbH) does really care about their costumes and tries to improve Checkmk for the costumers needs. **What do you dislike about Checkmk?** Because of the highly customization it's not very frendly for beginners. Furthermore there are some rules and features for example business intelligence that are very complicated to setup and edit. **What problems is Checkmk solving and how is that benefiting you?** Checkmk provides a central place for all your it infrastructure and makes troubleshooting much easier.

It's also easy to integrate multiple services into monitoring or develop local checks and plugins, based on your needs. **What do you dislike about Checkmk?** I'm not really inclined to see a strong negative here, because my default state of mind is to work around and issue. One thing I can mention is that Checkmk needs to be understood at the core, for it to be flexible for your needs **What problems is Checkmk solving and how is that benefiting you?** Problem alerting and statistics. Ease of host management and also notifications with alert handlers. ### 8. CheckMK - the best monitoring tool for our company **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Uwe J. | IT Consultant, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 17, 2023 **What do you like best about Checkmk?** Our company has been using CheckMK in our own company and with our customers since 2014. The main advantage for us is the wide range of options for monitoring IT systems and being able to flexibly adapt this monitoring. If we have problems, we get quick and uncomplicated help and support from the competent support team at tribe29. CheckMK's update and patch management is very good. **What do you dislike about Checkmk?** There really isn't a single negative point. **What problems is Checkmk solving and how is that benefiting you?** CheckMK enables us to monitor all of our customers' IT environments. In this way, our 1st level support colleagues can identify problems quickly and efficiently and tackle their solution.

After using 6 years still "Fascinating!" **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Marcel S. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 21, 2023 **What do you like best about Checkmk?** I like how easy it is to start with checkmk. After a few minutes you monitor your first host and you want more and more data. Everytime you dive deeper into checkmk you will find more ways to get a overview over your infrastructure. **What do you dislike about Checkmk?** There is no big point, at the beginning there is a lot to do to define your structure because it can be hard to restructure later **What problems is Checkmk solving and how is that benefiting you?** We get alerts from the monitoring of the WAN-connections and the VPN-connections before the customers call us ### 10. Best monitoring platform for our needs **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ahmad Siddiq Mohd Adnan . | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 20, 2023 **What do you like best about Checkmk?** Simple, great budget wise and also feature-wise monitoring system available out there. Most of our needs are obtained in the platform without needing to purchase additional modules **What do you dislike about Checkmk?** It does its job well, but if it can be expanded to accept for example, netflow data natively it would be great. Also pricing should be documented transparently without asking sales **What problems is Checkmk solving and how is that benefiting you?** Checkmk is able to monitor whatever my VM have. Simple and effective. We can also expand it using custom scripts if our requirements cant be fulfilled by native plugins. ### 11. Fantastic Monitoring Solution **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Michael M. | Senior Linux and IT Administrator, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 10, 2023 **What do you like best about Checkmk?** The biggest positives here are the number of things CheckMK actually does natively; for instance, I run Nagios for my alerting currently, and then Cacti for my KPI graphing and reporting; CheckMK is able to replace both of these platforms giving me less to maintain over time. Couple this with the ability to pair remote engines to a central console for all your assets behind a single pane of glass (Something Cacti does today, but Nagios Core does not), so not only did this solution allow me to chop my tech footprint in half by combining everything I need under one application, but it significantly simplified asset management as my NOC no longer has to rely on multiple front end UIs for asset management. The biggest plus by far is that while CheckMK does have an enterprise license tier, everything I listed and am using is available under the Raw or Community (Free) version of the product.. In 30 years of managing IT infrastructures, this is undoubtedly the best end-to-end monitoring solution I have ever used. **What do you dislike about Checkmk?** Really the only 'negative' I can even think of is the enterprise licensing is (IMO) somewhat confusing to understand, but I almost cannot even call that a negative because, again, every bit of core functionality listed in my review is available for free, which means (As the licensing is based on services monitored, not hosts as I would expect) instead of having to try and figure out what that number is for service checks, I can set up literally everything using the free edition, and then if we decide we do need to upgrade to enterprise I can have the console tell me how many services I am monitoring as it would be a "lift and shift" at that point. **What problems is Checkmk solving and how is that benefiting you?** CheckMK has allowed me to seamlessly combine what Nagios Core, and Cacti were doing for me before while also simplifying alerting and management for my NOC staff! ### 12. Pretty early adopter - still there **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Simon B. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 28, 2023 **What do you like best about Checkmk?** CheckMK is rule based - if you understand this concept it is easy to scale and very powerful. Also the software keeps learning new tricks with every release. **What do you dislike about Checkmk?** Not much - maybe a bit steep learning curve for new colleagues - but thats it **What problems is Checkmk solving and how is that benefiting you?** Best case - it helps me to avoid problems. And that´s the case. **Official Response from Sara Garifullina:** > Dear Simon, Thank you so much for taking the time to provide your feedback. It truly means a lot to us. We're thrilled to hear that you've been with us for a while and that Checkmk is meeting your expectations. Your loyalty is greatly appreciated, and we're dedicated to maintaining the high standards that you've come to expect from our product.

A great tool on the right way **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Gianluca S. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 28, 2023 **What do you like best about Checkmk?** I like the current features, infrastructure monitoring and the extensions. The interface is well-made and alerting is functional. **What do you dislike about Checkmk?** SNMP monitoring could be improved, extensions could have a better documentation **What problems is Checkmk solving and how is that benefiting you?** Infrastructures problems (filesystems, networks, cpu, memory). It alerts in time the problem and we can fix them by time ### 15. Complete monitoring your environment **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Philipp C. | IT-Application Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 28, 2023 **What do you like best about Checkmk?** I like the regular feature updates which are requested from the user. **What do you dislike about Checkmk?** I don't have anything what is dislike about checkmk. **What problems is Checkmk solving and how is that benefiting you?** To get an overview about the hole infrastructure invironment an ther upcoming problems.

Good and powerful monitoring solutions **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer & Network Security | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 28, 2023 **What do you like best about Checkmk?** CheckMK is a user-friendly and easy-to-set-up monitoring system. It already offers a large number of built-in checks for monitoring with predefined measurements. This makes it easy to get started with system monitoring. In addition, there are many short instructions in video form from the development team, especially for the beginning. CheckMK is very adaptable, own checks can be integrated quickly **What do you dislike about Checkmk?** Many adjustments are made via rules. Rules can be made in different places, centrally, at the host or at the individual check This can make it very confusing. **What problems is Checkmk solving and how is that benefiting you?** one centralized monitoring for several teams. We can adapt that all teams get only the alarming they need. The tool allows us to proactively detect problems before users report them . ### 17. Powerful and excellent value **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Retail | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 01, 2022 **What do you like best about Checkmk?** Checkmk is one of the most powerful Nagios-derived systems available. The navigation avoids fashion in favour of simplicity, and the enterprise version is one of the cheapest monitoring and alerting solutions on the market. On top of that, there is an excellent API and it is straight-forward to create custom extensions. **What do you dislike about Checkmk?** The documentation remains a work-in-progress, but has improved over the last 18 months. There is a rather steep learning curve, but less so than many comparable products. **What problems is Checkmk solving and how is that benefiting you?** It is providing us with extensive infrastructure monitoring across two countries and also allows a degree of triaging of events. This gives us advance warning of infrastructure issues before they fail, at a fraction of the cost of other products. ### 18.

However, this can also make it complex to set up and configure. Some users may find the learning curve steep, especially if they are new to IT monitoring tools. Resource-intensive: Because Checkmk monitors a wide range of IT infrastructure components, it can be resource-intensive, particularly when monitoring large environments.
