One product to monitor the
entire network - Internet Magazine (Italia) selected GFI Network Server
Monitor 6.0 as software of the month in May. An accompanying review of the
software describes how GFI Network Server Monitor is full of interesting new
features, especially the simple wizard that allows effective rule creation
such as the possibility to define a time when maintenance should be carried
out and how network administrators should be alerted about security breaches
(by email, SMS, or network message). The reviewer is also delighted to find
out that monitoring reports may be accessed from the web, making it possible
to control the network from any PC that is equipped with a browser. The
review also points out how all these features are available for Linux
machines as well, making GFI Network Server Monitor an ideal product for
networks that use a combination of Windows and Linux machines. All these
positive features and others lead Internet Magazine to name GFI Network
Server Monitor as the right tool to monitor all the network.-

Top network monitoring
contender - In a review by Mike Gunderloy for Larkware, GFI Network
Server Monitor is described as one of the top contenders amongst the network
monitoring applications on the market. The reviewer found the following
features very useful, "the agentless architecture, the easy setup, and the
VBScript/WMI combination for customization." He also remarks that, "Adding
Linux support in this version is a step forward as well," and "Another nice
touch not found in many other products is that monitors can be organized
hierarchically with inherited properties." In conclusion, the reviewer
suggests that, "If you're spending time trying to keep your own servers
running and don't have automated help, take a look."- Larkware, March
2005

toolbar icon". He found that the product makes troubleshooting simple and
that there are plenty of ways to perform monitoring. The reviewer describes
the feature that allows configuring dependencies between rules as being
"handy". He also stated that the manual is well-written and can be very
