http://127.0.0.1:8080/blog/taxonomy/term/1293/0 en http://127.0.0.1:8080/blog/monitoringforge <p>I found the initial announcement in my Spambox, thats where I send all the mails from GroundWork as unsubscribing from their marketing lists doesn't seem to work ..</p> <p><a href="http://www.adventuresinoss.com/?p=1117" rel="nofollow">Tarus</a> pointed it out.. he already mentionned Marketing, low community imput etc..</p> <p>Nevertheles I had a look, and my first and last impression was, NagiosForge, no active community, and empty pages on other imvho more relevant Monitoring Projects created by GroundWork employees.</p> <p><a href="http://www.johnmwillis.com/" rel="nofollow">Big John </a> coined the "to pull a GroundWork" phrase aiming at their early products, err logo placements. When <a href="http://www.inuits.be">we</a> were evaluating differen Open Source monitoring tools for our OLS paper about 18 months ago we looked at the tool and it didn't make the cut .. it failed in all areas where it claimed to be strong, ease of installation , lack of errorhandling during the installation, etc ... some while later another collegue tried again and we ran into similar problems</p> <p>Yet some people claim it to be a great product.. I'm not a fan yet ...maybe one day they they'll know to convince me .. but for now<br /> When I need Nagios .. I`ll be looking at <a href="http://djagios.org/" rel="nofollow">Djagios</a> , <a href="http://opsview.org/" rel="nofollow">Opsview</a> , <a href="http://www.icinga.org/" rel="nofollow">Icinga</a> or the real thing.</p> <p>However, ther's still Hyperic, Zenoss and Zabbix :)</p> http://127.0.0.1:8080/blog/monitoringforge#comments hyperic icinga look no link monitoring nagios zabbix zenos Wed, 23 Sep 2009 19:20:57 +0000 Kris Buytaert 939 at http://127.0.0.1:8080/blog
