## Reviews

### "CACTI: a simple and quite useful tool" — 5.0/5

> **Cesar Enrique** | *7 November 2023* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I liked most about CACTI is that it is very simple to use, very intuitive and also easy to deploy, it does not require advanced knowledge.
> 
> **Cons**: What I liked least about CACTI is that I see that it is widely used as a free tool but in reality it is a tool that has many functionalities.
> 
> We started using CACTI as a free tool and after validating some functionalities we acquired licensing, we used it for some specific projects where Cacti meets the requirements of the end client and we have started to use it in other projects in a transversal way.

### "Cacti Best Graph monitoring for ISP" — 5.0/5

> **Chamroeunrith** | *12 September 2021* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: easy to monitor the graph, its support all kind of devices, and sysadmin can build custom template for cacti too based on the MiB of the manufacture devices. &#10;graph are generate every 5min, not high load on the server performance, especially for ISP there have alot of customer.&#10;email notification is very good to send alert in case there have problem, or link down, also can automatically send email directly to customer as well the graph of their usage etc. &#10;weathermap plugin is powerful to let the system admin/network engineer to draw and connect devices and show the realtime traffic on the link.
> 
> **Cons**: its perfect already i have no comment about this.
> 
> when i work at ISP i use cacti too, and its easy to use, we use mixed devices from china, us etc, so function is not the same, especially MiB that not suitable to use with other monitoring too, but from this experence we use cacti, we build the custom MiB from devices and then import to cacti and we can monitor all the devices such as transmission devices mostly huawei product we need to build the custom template to monitor those devices.
