Case Study: GodZone Internet Services achieves reliable, low-cost server monitoring with Pandora FMS

GodZone Internet Services - Customer Case Study

GodZone Internet Services, a small New Zealand ISP serving churches and ministries, needed a low-cost, easy-to-deploy monitoring system to keep an eye on more than 30 servers despite having no full-time technical staff. After evaluating other open source options, they adopted the Pandora FMS monitoring solution to get an out-of-the-box, customizable tool that fitted their limited time and resource constraints.

Pandora FMS was implemented as a lightweight, perl-friendly monitoring platform that replaced prior attempts with Zenoss, Cacti and Nagios and provided the flexibility the team required. As a result, GodZone now monitors 30+ servers reliably, the director reports being confident to go on holiday knowing Pandora FMS will alert them to issues, and they have stopped searching for alternatives — a clear reduction in operational overhead and improved system visibility.
