Pros
Sensu has a really great community where I have had the benefit of leveraging many community contributions but been able to give back to such an awesome community.
The community features such as the plugins and slack channels are awesome. I hope they keep listening to the community and once Sensu Go is more stable I will be moving there as well.
Furthermore it supports to accept events/metrics via Agent API or the built-in StatsD listener. The documentation is awesome and complete.
Cons
Do you know how hard it was to try and link sensu/chef/slack using the community plugins. There was no mentions of a sensu_snippet any where in the docs.
Most people do not manually instal sensu, they use config management, yet the documentations on how to get up and running using ansible or chef is very weak.
Can't set a different retry interval once a problem is detected, like you can in nagios.
