		Related Products Statseeker Statseeker is a fully-featured network performance monitoring solution. It's highly scalable and delivers fast real-time performance data from a minimal server footprint. Statseeker can be up and running within minutes, and discovering your entire network in less than an hour, without any significant effect on your bandwidth availability. Statseeker monitors networks of any size, polling up to one million interfaces every 60 seconds, collecting network data such as SNMP, ping, NetFlow (sFlow and J-Flow), syslog and trap messages and API data, as well as SDN configuration and health metrics. Your network performance data is never averaged or rolled up. This removes the guesswork in identifying over- and underutilized infrastructure, conducting root cause analysis, or capacity planning. Statseeker's out-of-the-box dashboards and reports give you the contextual data needed to proactively monitor your network and fix problems before users are aware. 35 Ratings Visit Website AdRem NetCrunch NetCrunch is commercial, self-hosted, agentless network and IT infrastructure monitoring software for Windows Server.

	Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros I have been looking for a long time for a solution that allows me to control the creation of consolidate tickets. I have long been forced to buy several solutions. It is really an intelligent and efficient design. I even control the cameras, the smart sockets of the company and my clients, this complete biggest solution we use to do the job. Cons I had to understand the concept which is different from all the solutions used until now so there is a time of adaptation but once you understand the concept it is super simple and super effective you still have to read the prerequisites carefully otherwise we miss the concept.
