Editor's review
The corporate computer network today has become a minefield with numerous kinds of machines, peripherals and even shared resources all hooking up to the same network backbone. Given the variety of systems, it becomes critical for a network administrator to use a real time networking monitoring tool and Algorius Net Viewer 1.5.2 is possibly amongst the best you would come across. The tool boasts of a set of cutting edge features that allow you to learn about downtimes, possible issues that can crop up, receive Skype notifications and visualize the complete network from one point.
While most network monitoring tools rely on a reactive approach, the Algorius Net Viewer 1.5.2 believes in preemptive action and it warns you about potential issues before they end up creating a situation. You can choose to receive the notifications via various channels including SMS and emails. With numerous scan options and support for a plethora of plug-ins, the application is quite apt in diagnosing issues and has options for both fragmented monitoring and central control as per your needs. Using its web based UI you can visualize the network right of your browser and receive real time diagnostic status. It also has an elaborate reporting feature and the reports can be exported to different formats too. The application sports a neat graphical representation of all devices on the network and in the right pane you get to various categories of devices that are connected.
