Every month, Centreon extends its monitoring connector catalog and implements new connectors, allowing you to connect your IT monitoring with always more ITOps tools.
The result: increased visibility and business observability capabilities. We also offer enhancements and fixes on existing connectors.
This October 2024, we’re introducing two new monitoring connectors and a few fixes on existing ones.
You can also read the related documentation, contact our sales team, or post a message on The Watch to learn more.
Reminder: Plugin Packs have been renamed. We are now referring to them as Monitoring Connectors.
