11 everyday network issues PRTG Network Monitor helps resolve

AS A SYSTEM ADMINISTRATOR, do you really want to waste your precious time manually checking the status of the printers in your network? It is also annoying to be interrupted during concentrated work—perhaps addressing the SQL server issues—simply because of an empty paper tray in the printer on the floor above. As a network monitoring company, we receive requests to solve such basic network issues quite frequently and can summarise those in three basic categories:

Your network and its needs at a glance
£ Why are my applications so slow and
what happened to my calculation last
night? Are you planning to enhance our
hardware resources soon in order to
solve these failures?
£ Why isn’t my Outlook receive any emails?
£ Why do I get alerts about downtimes of
devices although my colleagues are
already on maintenance?
Ensuring the quality and security of
your network
£ Are you sure that our network is really
safe and no unauthorised person is
accessing it?
£ How can we be sure that our server room
equipment is safe from external threats?
£ Do you know that our webpage is
unacceptably slow and that customers
often abandon the buying processes?
£ Why is the sound quality of phone
calls so terrible and can you please fix
my permanently lagging video streams?
Keeping your basic systems running
£ Why does our database perform so poorly
every morning?
£ Why does my virtual machine crash so
often?
£ Can you show me the status of all my
different backup solutions at a glance?
£ Why do I always have to call you first
when the toner of our printer is empty?

You need to address those questions quickly and in a comprehensive way. And for this, you need something that gives you the answers you need right at your fingertips. A network monitoring solution helps administrators to manage the challenges of the everyday work. It presents a highly advantageous supplement to a network’s infrastructure and provides relief for the IT department on one hand, and is able to reveal previously unrecognised optimisation possibilities on the other.

A network monitoring software which constantly monitors processes in the network, performs analysis and alerts IT personnel as soon as an error occurs or critical values are exceeded is highly recommended in order to keep track of the availability, performance and bandwidth usage in your IT network.
