Ping Monitor Features

Host Availability Monitoring

The program detects the current state (up or down) for all monitored hosts and saves information about all outages, so for any selected time range you know when and how long the hosts were up and down.

Connection Quality Monitoring

The connection quality of any host is assessed in real-time as good, warning, bad or critical using different monitoring software metrics. You can customize the assessment criteria according to your needs.

Host Performance Analysis

For any historical period, you can assess the host performance using customizable criteria. Tracking changes in the overall host performance and changes of different metrics can help to find the reason for networking problems.

Detailed Statistics

All ping results are saved, so you can have access to statistics collected for every host. The program calculates different metrics and displays them on charts, so you can track the metrics changes over time.

Raw Ping Data

Every ping is recorded, so you can visualize all pings for every host on a timeline chart for a selected time range to see how they changed. You can export ping data into a file that can be opened for analysis in an external tool.

Flexible Notifications

Get e-mail, Windows Tray and sound alerts when the host state or connection quality change. All settings are customizable, so you can change e-mail templates and set different notification settings for different hosts.

Easy Customization

The program allows configuring settings used for all hosts and specifying custom settings for hosts/groups. You can integrate the program with external tools by configuring custom actions executed on up/down and other events.

Built-in Reporting

Generate PDF and HTML reports including detailed statistics for selected hosts. The generated reports can be saved as files, sent by e-mail or uploaded to an FTP. The program can create reports on demand and on schedule.

What’s New in Ping Monitor

System state overview

There is a new view in the program that provides you with an overview of the current state of the monitored hosts. There you can see the number of the monitored, non-monitored and paused hosts. The same view shows the total number of the monitored hosts in different states (Up and Down) and with a different connection quality (Good, Warning, Bad and Critical). All numbers are clickable, so you can navigate to the hosts with the selected Activity, State or Quality.

Connection quality tracking

In addition to the host state monitoring, the program can now monitor the connection quality for the monitored hosts, so you can see it on screen and get notifications when the connection quality changes. The connection quality is determined using the packet loss, latency percentile and jitter metrics to show the quality as Good, Warning, Bad or Critical.

State and quality monitors

Using the State and Quality Monitors, which are available in the Enterprise Edition of the program, you can see the states and the connection quality of all the monitored hosts on a single screen. Those views are designed for control rooms where the monitored hosts should be represented in a compact form while their state and quality are displayed by means of different colors. Ping Monitor is possible to sort and filter the displayed data to show hosts with the required characteristics only.

Determining the host performance and displaying statistics for a selected period

Network Monitoring software can select the required period and get information on the host performance and statistics for the selected period. The host performance is determined using the uptime, packet loss, latency, CV, MOS, and other metrics. The collected metrics are displayed in charts where you can see how they change over time. You can also get information about the number of outages and the periods when the host was in a different state or had varying quality characteristics during a selected period.

An improved monitoring web interface

The web interface, which is available in the Enterprise Edition of the program, has been significantly improved. Ping Testing Software now allows seeing all monitoring data and statistics through the web without opening a GUI client. The new web interface allows starting and stopping monitoring for hosts and groups.

Improved notifications

In addition to the host state notifications, now it is possible to send notifications when the connection quality changes. You can configure multiple notifications for every event in the updated notification settings dialog in Preferences. For example, you can send e-mail notifications and execute custom actions such as Windows commands, scripts or executables. To reduce the number of notifications, it is possible to group messages into one e-mail within a specified time interval, or group multiple events into one e-mail for every host.

Host timeline and raw ping data exporting

Using the new Timeline view, you can see raw ping replies for a selected period and the host state and quality for the same period. That data is displayed on charts, so you can see how they change over time. Ping Monitoring tool you wish, you can export raw ping data into a CSV file and open it in an external program.
