Gartner Peer Insights Customers\u2019 Choice for IT Infrastructure Monitoring Tools<\/a>.<\/p>\nAccording to Gartner: \u201cIT infrastructure monitoring tools capture the availability of the IT infrastructure components that reside in a data centre or are hosted in the cloud as infrastructure as a service (IaaS). These tools monitor and collate the availability and resource utilisation metrics of servers, networks, database instances, hypervisors and storage. Notably, these tools collect metrics in real-time and perform historical data analysis or trending of the elements they monitor.\u201d<\/p>\n

PRTG is sensor-based, which means the enterprise is in complete control of what it wants to monitor, with over 250 predefined sensors out of the box and the ability to create custom sensors to suit all monitoring needs. PRTG is an agentless unified monitoring solution. On the one hand, each device or service that has an IP address, or is reachable over IP and talks a protocol (SNMP, HTTP, WMI, xFlow, etc), can be monitored by PRTG probes. On the other hand, there is no need to install agents on monitored devices. With no add-ons, PRTG includes all features in each licence and keeps its licence renewal costs down to a bare minimum.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe PRTG list price is the price you pay, as all PRTG versions are full-featured with no need for plug-ins. It is one of the lowest cost of ownership monitoring tools on the market,\u201d Moolman says.<\/p>\n
