PRTG Catches Network Issues Before They Cause Downtime

Threshold-based alerts flag problems early, so your team can act before users notice, not after.

Reactive troubleshooting usually means hearing about a problem from frustrated users, not your monitoring tool. PRTG sets threshold-based alerts across devices, servers and applications, notifying your team by email, SMS or push the moment a metric crosses a set limit. That means catching a failing disk or overloaded server before it becomes an outage and getting time back from firefighting. Start a free trial and set your first alerts today.

Could you please make the ads a little intrusive or maybe less noticeable? Thanks!

Thank you for this incredible feedback. I've just added your suggestion of Shift+Click to select ranges of partial downloadable files in a torrent. Here's the patch if you're curious, thanks for making a difference in the product experience for everybody out there https://github.com/frostwire/frostwire/pull/1085/files

Fixed, no longer distributed with bundles.

Crashes minutes after launching. Absolute garbage application. Better off using a competitors app.
