Icinga Infrastructure Monitoring Reviews & Product Details

I appreciate the flexibility and adaptability of Icinga Infrastructure Monitoring. There are very few tools like Icinga that allow for such extensive customization. The community is significant, and the effective support has helped us several times to solve infrastructure problems. I particularly appreciate IcingaWeb2 and Director: with Director, it is much easier to configure, test, and deploy my configurations. The available tools and support also make setting up an on-site Icinga infrastructure much simpler today. I can monitor, thanks to specific services, health status information of our fleet that other tools do not allow us to observe, and anticipate certain problems to avoid them before they occur.

I found setting up Icinga less straightforward a few years ago, even though it is much easier today with the available tools and support. The information directly accessible in the database via SQL is only updated when a service or host state changes. To get the correct "output" information of a service, I have to go through the API, but this is sometimes not possible for performance reasons, especially for complex queries on a large volume of data.

Is very Flexible, and constantly followed by his community. The GUI is fully interpretable and can be managed according to your needs. We use this system, integrating it with other services to better manage our data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have no dislikes regarding this service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The look and feel of Icingaweb was one of the main reasons I decided to use Icinga. Another big plus is the great community around it. Most importantly, it lets me monitor my Windows environment using PowerShell scripts, which I’m already used to working with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some of the "included" modules needed a lot of my time to bring them online and make them useful for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like Icinga Infrastructure Monitoring’s ability to monitor using custom scripts. It alerts me to problems quickly so I can take immediate action, and sometimes IoT devices help me predict equipment failures before they happen, minimising downtime. I found the initial setup very easy using Docker. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not easy to incorporate SNMP monitoring for many OIDs and lack of SNMP trap support without third party software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

With Icinga Infrastructure Monitoring, I quickly detect system failures and can respond accordingly. I appreciate that Icinga can be used for free at its core and offers many features. If needed, I can purchase paid manufacturer support and additional features. I also value the ability to use satellites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Setting up Icinga Infrastructure Monitoring was not particularly difficult, but it was time-consuming. Additionally, I have not yet managed to implement the new SAML login because the necessary package is not displayed. Since I do not use paid support, I am left with the community, which I will consult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I especially like the easy-to-use API and Icinga Director. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Bigger updates can sometimes be troublesome, especially if you rely on external modules to extend how you use the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Being able to have masters and satellites Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

no built in native dashboarding & visualisation tools for collected data such as telemetry and perfdata Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The integration and extension possibilities make Icinga2 the best solution for us. We can implement individual customer requests with it at 99.9%. The community is strong and also supports with specific errors. Additionally, the Icinga development team responds quickly and is open to many features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Currently, there are no pain points. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Versatility on the configuration options and integration with several platforms via ICINGA Director. The UI is also simple but it gets the job done. Being OpenSource is also a plus Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lack of network maps creation. We had to resolve to nagvis integration to make it work Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find Icinga Infrastructure Monitoring very robust while still giving me flexibility with monitoring options, scripts, and integrations. It’s not that complex to keep it up and updated; it just requires thinking and planning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I explored Icinga Director in the past, but it wasn’t a good fit for us. We would have needed to recreate some configurations instead of migrating them, and make internal and process changes to start working with it. The timing was bad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
