We are using Pandora FMS to monitor both cloud infrastructure and in house CDP. Since we moved to Pandora FMS we have saved in licensing and we have increased our SLA in almost 55%.
We started by the open source monitoring software version. After 2 years we decided to go for the Enterprise edition.
Hope it helps. Victor
We are using Pandora FMS to monitor most of our company's devices and we have found that it is very easy to use and intuitive. Pandora is able to monitor, equally, devices, networks, servers, applications, services and business processes in a flexible way and adaptable to your environment. Knowing your tools does not take much time, so it is very easy to start monitoring systems. Most of the problems we had can be solved with the help of your agents or your wiki. Thanks to them I have also been able to discover the Ehorus software and see that together and integrated they work very well. Ehorus is a remote computer management system based on the cloud, is one of the best alternatives to Teamviewer for its simplicity. To start using it you just have to install and run a software on your computer. That's right, you can connect to your home computer from the office, and access the desktop and all your files.
If I had to keep something of Pandora it would be that it has a specific preconfigured solution to monitor any of the SAP environments. It also has a series of default monitors that save time when making a system checklist, since they can send alerts with information of each of the events.
For the rest, it would be better to have a more specific filter for the data collection work where the desired information can be seen in an agile way.
We can not go throug life relying only on our intuition, it is convenient to ask about things before doing them, especially when it comes to making some important decisions I think that's what this software is for
IT is used for practically everything, so a failure in the service can be, directly, economic losses. Or imagine that problems affect customers. The web site suffers a drop in performance. Or that the system that supports billing stops working and the backup systems are outdated and do not respond to demand. Pandora is for this. For me at least it helps me in this bad experiences spread quickly and no company is interestd
Pandora stll has some flaws to patch up but it's on the right track
We had to try lots of them, but fnally we got the best outcome with Pandora FMS. It solved lots of weak spots we didn't know how to deal with. Both getting inventories in real time or a 10-yera-long history as well as usr experience, which is in my opinion the best feature of this software. And from that point on, we've kept using Pandora. But we also get its newest versions, so things keep getting better. Over all monitoring sofwares, I think Pandora is the one that covers both simplicity and efficiency the two main components of a monitoring system. Supervising network events is hard wrok, but it's also important in IT and tools like this one play an important role. If I could suggest something however based on my needs it'd be to come up with new ideas in a new feature that is closer to the device advanced security monitoring.
We’re using Pandora FMS to monitor devices in our company and it's flexible and easy to use Thnx to its massive tools it didnt take long to start monitroing new systems Most of the issues we had when monitoring are already solved in its wiki but their notificaton system and map display need some work
Pandora FMS is great look and feel, but as a person who has russian as a first language the lack of a cyrillic-written translation has made me to not be able to take full advantage of all the functions. My english is not the best and it takes me some time and help from Google translate to even write this review. I hope devs include a cyrillic translation soon. Meanwhile, I’ll have to use to other software because having to translate everything is wasting me too much time.
