"Its a good Monitoring tool for IT infrastructure, especially mid market."
4/5
What do you like best about Nagios XI?

A good comprehensive monitoring tool for SMBs. I love the simplicity of the tool and one of the key things I like personally is the Eagle Eye view.

Bulk Host Import, Autodiscovery, Auto Decommissioning, Mass Acknowledgment & much more are some of the interesting aspects as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nagios XI?

How the pricing is structured, it's a subscription model. However the price increases at a very high margin each year. And being a reseller of Nagios, I hate looking at overall TAM across and Nagios doesn't want to expand, unlike its competitors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
