Centralised Dashboard Views
ipMonitor’s new cutting-edge dashboards offer centralised, customisable 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.
Easy Wizard-Driven Installation & Auto-Discovery
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.
SmartMonitor Recommended Settings
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.
Network Mapping
ipMonitor v9 can now auto-discover network devices and create rich network maps that can be customised 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.
Enhanced Device Grouping for Easy Management
The latest version of ipMonitor makes it painless to manage lists of devices and their logical organisation with enhanced grouping and nested grouping capabilities. Additionally, new SmartGroups allow dynamic grouping of devices and monitors based on user-defined filters.
Built-In Reporting
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!
