Hi Key, thanks for sharing your experience. I don't know if you use the community or enterprise version. In the Enterprise version we have discovery, which is used to explore and monitor Amazon AWS, Azure and Google Cloud, as well as remote environments such as MySQL or Oracle without "going down to the terminal". Our philosophy is to make monitoring easy, but it is true that Pandora FMS is very extensive and requires time to explore it thoroughly. Thanks again for your review and I encourage you to use our forums to resolve any questions you may have.

Pandora : The monitoring tool
Commentaires : The monitoring of our business needs a special vision to understand the values received by the monitoring. By adding Python script to manage data in entry, and PHP special views to give correct dashboard, it's a very powerful tool, that gives exact vision of the currently health of your system.
Avantages :
The Pandora offers a large number of function, growing every month to cover all monitoring. It's customizable through PHP pages, Python Script, and can become a very dedicated monitoring tool. But, as a standard tool, with the Community Version (unpaid), it is already very powerful if you take time to configure properly. With the forum and bi-monthly update, it's always reactive to improvement and correction.
Inconvénients :
The default views are a bit too much for developers and IT Manager. Needs some development to make it a great tools.

Thank you very, very much for sharing your experience Christophe, especially coming from the OpenSource version. We are going to open some features that were previously enterprise, such as the inventory and the IP management system (IPAM). I just hope we can keep improving Pandora FMS for users who understand how complex the IT world is and the need to integrate different pieces of architecture. I invite you to share with us in the forum (or by mail) your ideas for improvement.

Pandora FM(ye)S Please!!
Commentaires : Started with the virtual appliance which made testing the product easy for evaluation. Once the decision was made it was decided to build as per the easy to follow instructions on the website for a CentOS distribution. It has been a solid experience backed with support by Pandora FMS team and the community. Customization was simple with the module library.
Avantages :
Pandora FMS allows our company to accurately maintain an up to the minute easy to digest visual on inventory and security through out our network for certain industry compliance of workstations and servers. We are a multi OS environment and Pandora FMS fits nicely as it supports all our Operating Systems with provided modules.
Inconvénients :
Better support for custom themes would be greatly appreciated. Ability to have a dashboard with all assets displayed with quick hover over status. Think at-a-glance style view of all assets on one page. Would make it easy for Data center admins to get an overall picture.

The Flexiblest Monitoring System
Commentaires : It helps my job to be more proactive instead of reactive, I have all the visibility of my critical infrastructure.
Avantages :
I love the flexibility of the system, iI always say it is like a 'blank' sheet of paper, you can 'write' anything on it. The ore you know the system, the more you can do with it...
Inconvénients :
It could be better at the 'factory default' reports and graphics, the look n' feel of the graphics too.

review
Commentaires : The best thing about working with pandora FMS is the amazing support. if there ever is a game breaking bug introduced. or a feature not working as expected the support team is able to make a hot-fix within hours of filing the bug. Most of the time the fix is pushed within 2 hours.
Avantages :
in comparison with most monitoring software the software is incredibly easy to use. It does 95 % of what we want it to and the remainder is currently waiting on new features which have been added to the road map.
Inconvénients :
The software has a tendency to introduce tiny bugs each release. None of them are breaking in any way. but it feels like there is always 1 tiny thing which is not working as expected. most of them are fixed within 1 release which takes about 3 weeks.

Pandora FMS makes my job easier
Commentaires : Pandora FMS has helped us manager the increased network workload ( because of the pandemic ) amazingly .
Avantages :
The color scheme of the Tactical View makes it easy to differentiate between the different metrics you follow . Plus ,you can customize the reports you get to show only what you need them to . The automated device discovery often saves me a lot of time .
Inconvénients :
While thorough , the network mapping process takes longer than ideal. The initial setup is complicated and the program overall is not the most intuitive to use .
Axel
The swiss-army knife of monitoring solutions
Avantages :
Its flexibility to adapt to new technologies: we've found no application, server or cloud provider that couldn't be monitored.
Inconvénients :
It's not as out-of-the-box as they say. This solution requires proper training to get the 100% out of it.

Amazing software for small businesses
Commentaires : I was able to obtain interesting information about machines and mobile devices. I am impressed
Avantages :
Amazing software for small businesses. I am a consultant dedicated to install Lync and Skype for Business over large companies. But this product has nothing to envy over those big names companies. Performance is seriously good specially when you discover that it can run even over a VM. I highly recommend the use of this product for small businesses. SOme of the features are not even available on other more expensive products.
Inconvénients :
Support for old versions is not the best. And the life cycle seems to be very short. But you get what you pay.
Jorge
Pandora FMS
Avantages :
What I liked most about this software was that I can motorize all kinds of elements. What is better is that only with one tool you can do all kinds of things: as a network motorization, service-oriented motorization, application motorization and many other things, but for me the best are those three.
Inconvénients :
At the moment nothing bad has come up because what I have been using has not given me problems so I am satisfied

Great class example and even better find!
Commentaires :
As a teacher at an University I use Pandora as part of a group of software examples when explaining networks and their monitoring. I'm really glad to be able to use this software, it's one of the rare few monitoring solutions that doesn't resort to being based on Nagios code and actually proposes a lot of new things to challenge students with. As a personal user, I agree that it's a great monitoring solution in general it includes a more than decent amount of features and integrations, even in its community edition.
In general, I would recommend it for large infrastructures because of the possibilities it offers.
