Core performance metrics: Monitor up/down status, response time, CPU, memory, disk utilization, and interface errors/discards.

Comprehensive OS coverage: Get full visibility into your Windows, Linux, and Unix servers with multiple language options for the GUI; English, Spanish, Chinese (Simplified/Traditional), Japanese, French, German, and Italian.

Proactive alerting: Set custom thresholds and receive real-time email/SMS alerts before minor issues become major outages.

Unified dashboards: Build a NOC view to see the health of your entire network on a single screen.

Virtualization monitoring: Gain essential visibility into your VMware, Hyper-V, and Xen environments.

Which free network performance monitoring option is right for you?

Ideal for small networks and labs (forever-free edition): A small office environment where the requirements involve monitoring the core switch, edge router, and one server to catch spikes and interface errors early. The Free Edition is perpetual, capped at three devices - making it ideal for labs, micro-sites, or basic continuous visibility.

Perfect for enterprise evaluation (30-Day Free Trial):: This is a full-featured version designed for broader evaluation, with no device limits during the trial. This lets you test discovery, configure alerts, and build dashboards across sites and device types- essentially a pilot run before making a rollout decision.

Get value in 3 steps: Your day-one checklist

  • Discover up to 3 devices (free edition) and verify up/down and response time.
  • Apply thresholds for CPU/memory/disk/interfaces and enable email/SMS alerts.
  • Build a NOC view dashboard for single-screen health.
  • Explore further: Once you're comfortable, try discovering more devices (if you're on the trial) or exploring our detailed performance reports to see what else you can learn about your network.
