A Node is anything with an IP address or Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) that you would like to monitor (switches, routers, firewalls, workstations, and other network devices). There are no restrictions on the number of Services you can monitor. While paid licenses of Nagios XI do not contain any software-imposed limitations, we have found that systems performing more than 15,000-20,000 checks in a 5-minute interval should consider following our Server Considerations Guide to ensure the best performance on your installation. Nagios XI also offers an Enterprise add-on which enhances the software's capabilities. This addition allows users to schedule reports, project future values with capacity planning, and much more. Refer to our Enterprise documentation or contact a Nagios sales representative to learn more about the capabilities of the Enterprise-level license.

The software works great when done right. > > The best benefit is the ability to create a monitor in a GUI rather than a command line. ----- ### "Old Monitoring solution" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *30 September 2019* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: We purchased this many years ago to monitor our infrastructure and it started off well > > **Cons**: We found this solution very difficult to set up​ and their support was not much help. > > Been using this to monitor our infrastructure​ but now we are looking for something new ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/20456/nagios-xi-crm?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/20456/nagios-xi-crm) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
