Comparison between Site24x7 VMware Monitoring and VM monitoring using Site24x7 server agent

Site24x7 VMware Monitoring capabilities
Site24x7 VMware monitoring is agentless. An On-Premise Poller acts as a probe to collect data and sends it to Site24x7. With Site24x7 VMware Monitoring, you will be able to:
  1. Monitor vCenter
  2. Monitor VMware ESX/ESXi hosts
  3. Monitor VMware virtual machines (with vMotion handled automatically)
  4. Monitor VMware datastores and snapshots
  5. Monitor VMware resource pools and child resource pools
  6. Set thresholds for all key metrics and be alerted of their breach
  7. Auto-resolve performance and availability issues with IT Automation
VM monitoring using Site24x7 server agent
Site24x7 Server Monitoring is purely agent-based and gives metrics at the guest OS level. With Site24x7 Server Monitoring, you will be able to monitor the following:
  1. Monitor servers of different operating systems
  2. Monitor processes and services
  3. Integrate plugins
  4. Set thresholds for all key metrics and be alerted of their breach
  5. Auto-resolve performance and availability issues with IT Automation
