Line Monitoring Software vs Progress WhatsUp Gold Formerly Ipswitch WhatsUp Gold

• Monitoring the connection; performance, switching, and issues. We use a broadband connection for our primary and a cellular backup for the secondary. While we use routing protocols to make this switch and WhatsUp isn't used for Syslog monitoring. it alerts us within seconds.
• Backup configurations and archiving. WhatsUp does this particularly well. I use it for both Cisco routers and switches.
• The diagram feature is nice. Though I don't use it as much because of the size of our structure, it does come in handy for mapping routes of all traffic.
