"Businesses that want to monitor absolutely everything on their network will find Paessler's PRTG Network Monitor an appealing choice. Many competing products employ device-based licensing and use a modular approach, which can leave you with a mounting bill for optional extras. But PRTG takes a much simpler approach as it's licensed only by the number of active sensors. A sensor allows a single resource to be monitored, which could be"
"This approach means there are no hidden costs, as a subscription enables access to all sensors. PRTG comes into its own if you want to monitor virtualization hosts, applications, and even NetFlow feeds, as some vendors only offer these features as chargeable add-on modules. Paessler operates a rolling update process so as new sensors and features become available, they're yours for the taking."
PRTG is licensed by the number of active sensors, with each sensor monitoring a single resource such as a CPU core, network interface, service, or switch port. A subscription includes access to all sensors and eliminates hidden costs associated with device- or module-based licensing. Built-in capabilities cover virtualization hosts, applications, and NetFlow feeds without extra add-on charges. Paessler delivers rolling updates so new sensors and features arrive automatically. Version 25.4 offers 321 sensors and introduces a new alpha-stage user interface. Deployment options include on-premises or cloud-hosted installations, with a 30-day trial and a free 100-sensor edition. An eight-core CPU with 16GB RAM can support up to 5,000 sensors, roughly 500 devices.
