Overall Satisfaction with PRTG Network Monitor
PRTG is a very useful monitoring tool, special for windows systems that are used for our internal infrastructure (also Unix Systems). You can use easy pre configured sensors or create your own sensor. In the beginning the creation of own sensor is a little bit tricky. You have to understand it first completely before you can create one. But the standard sensor cover already a lot. You can find a lot of useful things in the kb from paessler.
- Easy to use
- Very powerful sensors
- Create custom sensors (SQL, Powershell etc.)
- Good support from paessler
- A lot of KB articles
- In some points limitated (You cannot change a sensor, you have to delete them)
- Create a SQL sensor is not that easy
- You have to search in your system language (Example. In German RAM is called "Arbeitsspeicher" so when you search for RAM he will not find the sensor)
- You can see very fast if there is a problem in the dashboard
- Active Monitoring so no system runs out of capacity
- Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) and Nagios
Is was the most powerful tool and easy to integrate. For Nagios you need Unix knowledge und SCCM is very complicated to install and configure.
