Thoughts / Opinions

I used CheckMK Community Edition for many years, and I find it a solid solution for companies that want to reduce costs and have a serious proactive monitoring environment. Of course, many of the other solutions are great, but it is a matter of preference and use case scenario.

Hope it helps and saves a little time!
