The network monitoring feature of Zenoss Core offers a Flash-based representation of an organization's network layer 3 topology, icon-based device representation for Linux and Windows devices, and a Google Maps Mashup for WAN availability and performance monitoring.
The availability monitoring feature supports ICMP, SNMP, TCP/IP testing with intelligent suppression of alerts based on layer3 network dependencies, Windows/Linux, and Unix service and process availability testing, and generates events based on availability issues.
The Performance Monitoring feature offers scheduled collection and storage of SNMP OID values with support for Nagios and Cacti performance collection scripts, provides performance metrics on Java wrappers for applications, services, components, and devices in a distributed network with Java Management Extension (JMX) Performance Collection for managed objects (MBeans), and the ability to set multiple threshold levels on a specific metric.
The Event Management, Log Monitoring, and Alerting feature of Zenoss Core allow aggregation of events from various sources such as availability monitoring, performance monitoring, syslog sources, SNMP trap sources, and Windows Event log. The software also offers the ability to build event processing rules through GUI interface and layer 3 aware alerting to minimize "Alarm Fatigue."
Lastly, the Web Portal, Dashboard, and Reporting feature of Zenoss Core offers a rich Ajax-enabled user interface with role-based permissions, drag and drop fully customizable dashboard, and customizable and powerful reports that can be shared via email. Overall, Zenoss Core is an exceptional IT management software that is reliable, scalable, and affordable for any organization seeking an all-in-one solution to IT monitoring.
