Overall Satisfaction with PingPlotter

I installed PingPlotter because the network admin that was helping us to troubleshoot network problems recommended we do so.
We installed it and configured the program to monitor several connections and ip´s over several days to get a feeling about what the problem was. It helped us to identify when the slowdowns started and when the resolved again and by doing that we were able to find what the cause was. Without PingPlotter it would have taken much longer to figure this out and narrow the possible cause.
Recommend this program to all serious network admins and people that need to monitor network traffic.
  • Monitor traffic in network
  • Measure stops when contacting network locations such as websites
  • Measures the lag and latency it takes to contact network locations
  • Gives you both induvidual measurements as well as good oversight
  • identifies when network lag or disconnect occurs
  • Havent used it for long enough to be able to give good advise on this
  • Monitoring network traffic to find when problems occur to help us isolate the problem
  • We have just used once on advise from our IT service provider so this is maybe not relevant to our case
