I would rather ditch the initial licensing fees and just pay for professional Zabbix support if you don't want to invest the time in learning it yourself. While there are other commercial options out there that look really nice and seem simple plug-and-play, you end up spending more money for consulting hours and spending almost as much time tweaking the commercial offerings as you do with Zabbix. There is a learning curve, but once it clicks you realize you can do pretty much anything with Zabbix.

If the device or service doesn't have an API, you can run scripts to log in, run a command, capture output, and then process it in Zabbix. You can integrate pretty much anything else that has an API. While a little more advanced, Zabbix has a very nice API that can be used for automation. Graylog for massive log ingestion and alerting (you can create an HTTP notification type to Zabbix's API).Grafana for Pretty Dashboards (Grafana has a nice Zabbix plugin).Zabbix for system, service, environmental and network monitoring.

I also have a few key worries about Zabbix that I can't seem to find easy answers to, mainly: Where and for how long do they store logs and metrics, what kind of log/data obfuscation options am I looking at, can it be made HIPAA/GDPR compliant?Īny experiences or opinions on the pros and cons of Zabbix would be much appreciated. So far I'm mainly looking at Zabbix, but it seems like (although it does a lot) it has a very steep learning curve that each developer would be forced to go through.
#SPLUNK ENTERPRISE VS ZABBIX FOR FREE#
I was wondering if anyone had any experience or recommendations for free options. So far I've investigated options like datadog and sumologic, which would be ideal but are very pricey. We need log management, error monitoring, alerting, database and API and VM metric monitoring as well as visualisation options. Davis, the Dynatrace AI-assistant, provides real-time answers and actions into root cause, behavioral intelligence, and business impact. I am also a complete newbie to open-source options since I've always used stuff like the sumologic free tier. The company is new to proper monitoring and has very little in place.
#SPLUNK ENTERPRISE VS ZABBIX SOFTWARE#
I've been set on the task of investigating different monitoring options for the new software department at a consultancy firm.
