….I needed a quick, and preferably easy one to set up…..It grabs a bunch of the normal statistics but where I found it most useful was the alarms and notifications…. I am liking it way better than WebCacti!
In most cases, what Jeff has explained holds good. It is not feasible for admins to spare a huge amount of time to build what they want, especially when they have limited resources.
So, all they need is an easy to deploy network monitoring software that works out-of-the-box.
OpManager’s bundled web-server and database, lets one quickly deploy the product for production. Further the automatic network discovery and wide collection of monitoring templates helps admins to start monitoring their devices in a minute.
I know what you will ask next!
There is a Free Edition as well and as the name say, it never expires. It just has a cap on number of devices (10 devices) and number of users (1 user). Apart from that all other features available in Professional Edition are made available in Free Edition too. For more information on what’s included in Professional Edition, please refer to our edition comparison page.
Once again, thanks to Jeff for pointing out this.
