Plant & Food Research Ltd. is a New Zealand-based science company providing research and development that adds value to fruit, vegetable, crop and food products.

Currently Plant & Food Research Ltd. monitors 64 Linux servers with Zabbix. The key challenges for the company that led to seeking a monitoring solution and which led to choosing Zabbix were: easiness of deployment and templating; the ability to start collecting metrics with very little manual configuration out of the box; the ability to graphically visualize those metrics with flexible time periods. According to the company’s feedback, the benefits of using Zabbix are – “Once the basics are set up, it’s very easy and intuitive to use. It also provides great flexibility and expandability. Auto-discovery and low level discovery are wonderful features that save a lot of time,” said Eric Burgueno, Systems Engineer, Unix Services at Plant & Food Research Ltd.
