    ZABBIX is all-in-one 24×7 monitoring solution without high cost.

    ZABBIX is software that monitors numerous parameters of a network and the health and integrity of servers.

    parameters are accessed through a web-based front end. A web-based front end ensures that the status of your
    network and the health of your servers can be assessed from any location. Properly configured, ZABBIX can play
    an important role in monitoring IT infrastructure. This is equally true for small organisations with a few
    servers and for large companies with a multitude of servers.

    source code is freely distributed and available for the general public.
    Both free and commercial support is available and provided by ZABBIX Company.
