I worked with ipmonitor at my last job and we used it extensivly. The monitors provided in the default package were excellent for our envionment. You will be hard pressed to find another monitoring application that is this easy to use and so many features.

This product has truly exceeded our expectations - since our operation is relatively small, we couldn't justify a big investment, but ipMonitor gave us all we could hope for at an affordable price - it's a great fit between the limited-feature low-cost monitoring solutions and the enterprise-level offerings!

I'll admit that I was initially skeptical about ipMonitor. However, after installing, configuring and using it for some time, I was pleasantly surprised that ipMonitor does all that it claims -- and more.

* ipMonitor’s new cutting-edge dashboards offer centralized, customizable summary views that provide instant visibility into the health of your IT infrastructure. With support for drag and drop, it’s easy to add and remove elements from the dashboards to ensure you have the reports, statistics, and gauges you need - right at your fingertips.* ipMonitor v9 includes an improved Startup Wizard that guides you through the automated discovery and alert configuration process. Plus, the new Discovery Wizard provides a multitude of scanning methods and enables faster network scanning and discovery, returning detailed network data that includes device classifications and layer-3 topology information.* ipMonitor’s new SmartMonitor technology suggests optimal monitors and data collection settings for almost everything on your network – saving you time and eliminating the need for you to configure settings by hand. During the automated discovery process, ipMonitor auto-selects the best monitors for each device and chooses the best “interrogation method” – SNMP, WMI, or RPC – to obtain the most accurate data. * ipMonitor v9 can now auto-discover network devices and create rich network maps that can be customized to show the connection between elements or to add nested elements. Maps enable you to visually monitor network health with dynamically managed status indictors that offer drill-down capabilities for quick problem resolution.* The latest version of ipMonitor makes it painless to manage lists of devices and their logical organization with enhanced grouping and nested grouping capabilities. Additionally, new SmartGroups allow dynamic grouping of devices and monitors based on user-defined filters.* ipMonitor v9 adds new group, device, and system reports for CPU, disk, interface, memory, availability, downtime, and response time, making the out-of-the-box reporting capabilities better than ever!

IP monitor installs very quickly and very useful software for network management.
