Top Rated Foglight for Databases Alternatives
Navigating through the environment overview makes it more suitable to have a quick summary of what is happening on the hosts and clusters. The ability to host multiple VMs to be monitored on a single console makes it easy to navigate multiple environment monitoring servers and apps. The Alarm module does its best job where you can have a report on the physical disk. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The Dash board is complex and doesn't have a simple GUI. Navigating can be difficult if you are not trained to use the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
