Dynamic content updates with AJAX technology provide real-time information on the latest status of monitored infrastructure elements.

  • Performance and Capacity Planning Graphs: Automated, integrated trending and capacity planning graphs allow organizations to plan for infrastructure upgrades before outdated systems catch them by surprise.

  • Configuration Wizards: Configuration wizards guide users through the process of monitoring new devices, services, and applications – all without having to understand complex monitoring ideas or modify low-level configuration files. Ability to build and deploy custom wizards allows organizations to tailor XI to meet internal and external user requirements.

  • Advanced Configuration Manager: An advanced web configuration interface to Nagios Core allows administrators complete control over the monitoring engine configuration. Import capabilities provide for migration from legacy Nagios Core configuration files.

  • Advanced User Management: Simplifies your management of the XI system by allowing you to mange user accounts easily. Provision new user accounts with a few clicks and users automatically receive an email with their login credentials.

  • User-Specific Notification Preferences: Users can manage how they'd like to receive notifications, what they'd like to receive notifications for, and what type of information the notification messages should contain.

  • Non-Stop Operations: Protects against monitoring system failures due to misconfigurations and user error. The new Nonstop Operations Manager lets you rest easier knowing your monitoring system doesn't stop, even when you do.

  • Extendable Architecture: Built on proven Open Source components, Nagios XI's capabilities can easily be extended to meet your organization's needs. Hundreds of community-developed addons and monitoring scripts are available to extend XI's core functionality. Modular design allows for easy customization.

  • Database Backend: Integrated database backend and APIs allow for powerful behind-the-scenes access to monitoring and configuration data. Integrated authentication layers protect sensitive data against unauthorized access and empower organizations to develop their own front-ends for monitoring data.
