Paessler PRTG is an IT monitoring software that helps businesses monitor their entire IT infrastructure – no matter if it is an on-premises, cloud, or hybrid environment.
With PRTG, system administrators can keep an eye on the health and performance of their network devices, traffic, applications, services, and much more, to make sure that their IT and business processes run smoothly at all times.
If there is an issue in the IT infrastructure, PRTG alerts the responsible person or team immediately via customizable notifications so that they can react quickly before a failure causes more severe problems.
The freeware edition of PRTG always includes up to 100 monitoring aspects – or PRTG sensors – which can be distributed over your network devices as needed.
Commercial editions of PRTG differ in license scope and pricing depending on the PRTG product you choose. For PRTG Network Monitor, there are annual subscriptions from 500 up to 10,000 sensors. With PRTG Hosted Monitor, you can choose from flexible monthly, annual, and multi-year subscription plans for more scalability. PRTG Enterprise Monitor offers annual subscription licenses for an unlimited number of servers, based on the number of sensors in use.
Both freeware and commercial editions of PRTG include all monitoring features.
In PRTG, “sensors” are the basic monitoring elements. One sensor usually monitors one measured value in your network, for example the traffic of a switch port, the CPU load of a server, or the free space on a disk drive.
On average, you need about 5-10 sensors per device or one sensor per switch port.
What is a monitoring aspect?
“Monitoring aspect” is a more descriptive term for “sensor”.
PRTG is an all-in-one monitoring solution, which means that no matter which product or license size you choose, you're able to set up comprehensive monitoring for your entire IT infrastructure. With PRTG, you get the full package:
