Automated Server and Network Monitoring Made Easy
GFI Network Server Monitor™ is the software solution you need to scan your network for failures or irregularities. GFI Network Server Monitor scans automatically so you can identify issues and fix unexpected problems before your users (or managers) even know they've happened.
Maximize Network and Server Uptime
GFI Network Server Monitor maximizes network availability by monitoring all aspects of your Windows and Linux servers, plus workstations and other devices such as routers and more. When a failure is detected, GFI's network monitor will alert you by email, pager or SMS, as well as automatically taking the preconfigured corrective action by, for example, rebooting the machine, restarting the service or running a script.
Performs a Real Test
GFI Network Server Monitor actually tests the status of a service, rather than deducing a service status from generated events as other products do. It is the only real way to ensure server uptime. GFI Network Server Monitor is easy to set up and use, and is competitively priced.
Built in Rules for Several Network Servers and Services
GFI Network Server Monitor's built in monitoring rules include: Exchange Server 2000/2003, MS SQL, Oracle and ODBC databases, CPU usage, FTP & HTTP Servers Group Membership, Active Directory & NTDS, Disk Drive health, Disk Space, Event Log (with content checking), File Existence (with content checking), TCP, ICMP/Ping, SMTP & POP3 Mail servers, Printers, Processes, Services, UNIX Shell Scripts (RSH), SNMP & Terminal Server.
Custom monitor functions can be created in VBscript and ADSI and WMI. With GFI Network Server Monitor you can monitor virtually anything!
