Businesses increasingly rely on their networks to move data, provide com-munication, and enable basic opera-tions. As networks and computer tech-nology become more integrated with business, system outages can seriously impact the bottom line. If your network or website is offline the company does not make money. The goal of network monitoring is not only to detect a system failure when it happens. To find out about problems before they get serious makes it necessa-ry to monitor all parts of your network for performance issues.

Multiple User Management
IPCheck Server Monitor is a credential-based system and can be run for just one single user or in multi-user mode. Each user can create his own groups of servers and sensors. For example a sing-le, centralized copy of IPCheck Server Monitor can be used by multiple de-partments, each having their own view of their sensors and reports. The ISP Edition adds advanced user manage-ment options for ISPs who want to offer monitoring services to their customers.
