Nagios + RightITnow ECM

Nagios monitors your infrastructure.
ECM correlates it with everything else.

RightITnow ECM includes a native Nagios connector. Nagios Core and Nagios XI alerts flow directly into ECM's correlation engine — alongside SolarWinds, SCOM, Zabbix, VMware, and CloudWatch — eliminating the manual work of correlating alerts across disconnected monitoring instances.

The gap

What Nagios alone can't do

Even if you're happy with your current monitoring tool, these are the gaps that ECM is specifically built to fill.

Multiple instances

Disconnected Nagios instances instead of one view

As infrastructure grows, teams spin up additional Nagios instances — creating fragmented visibility. ECM consolidates alerts from all your Nagios instances into one correlated console.

No cross-system correlation

Nagios alerts stay in Nagios — isolated from SolarWinds, SCOM, Zabbix

Nagios monitors its assigned domain well, but has no native mechanism to correlate its alerts with events from your network monitoring, cloud tools, or ITSM platform.

Alert floods

Inbox overflows with duplicate alerts that are hard to suppress

Nagios consistently generates excessive alert noise — including repeated notifications for already-resolved issues. ECM's deduplication and suppression rules eliminate noise before it reaches your NOC.

Config complexity

Manual text-file configuration doesn't scale

Adding new checks or modifying monitoring requires manually editing configuration files — time-consuming and error-prone in fast-changing infrastructure environments.

Head-to-head

RightITnow ECM vs. Nagios alone

A direct comparison of what matters most to IT operations teams.

Capability ECM + your existing tools Nagios alone
Cross-system event correlation ✓ Nagios + SolarWinds + SCOM + Zabbix + more ✗ Nagios alerts only
Multi-instance consolidation ✓ All Nagios instances feed one console ✗ Each instance is separate
Alert deduplication & suppression ✓ Across all sources — up to 95% reduction ✗ Basic, within Nagios only
Bidirectional ITSM integration ✓ Auto create, route, acknowledge, close ✗ Notifications only
Configuration interface ✓ Visual drag-and-drop rule builder ✗ Manual config file editing
SLA and executive reporting ✓ Cross-source dashboards included ✗ Limited, instance-scoped only
Customer outcomes

What teams say after adding ECM

Real results from organisations that added RightITnow ECM as their cross-system correlation layer.

"We deployed a central event processing console against our existing legacy systems in record time. RightITnow provided a simple, cost-effective licensing model."
— Enterprise IT Operations Team
"Our NOC now only watches ECM, which has improved response times. We've unified our workflow across technology areas, which reduced administrative overhead."
— Global Infrastructure Operations
"Chronic issues that had been long masked became obvious within days, allowing us to dramatically cut down our event volume — before we'd even trained our team."
— IT Operations Director, Financial Services
Getting started

Up and running in hours — not weeks

The native connector is pre-built. No custom development required.

Connect the native connector

Point the pre-built connector at your existing deployment. Alerts start flowing into ECM immediately.

Add your other monitoring tools

Connect SolarWinds, Nagios, Zabbix, SCOM, VMware, CloudWatch, and more. All feed the same correlation engine.

Configure correlation rules visually

Use ECM's drag-and-drop interface to define deduplication, suppression, and cross-domain rules. No scripting required.

Automate the incident lifecycle

ECM creates, routes, acknowledges, and closes incidents in your service desk automatically when events clear.
