Published 8th May 2008

NEW YORK, NY – May 6, 2008 – AdRem Software announced the availability of NetCrunch 5, an out-of-the-box, comprehensive network monitoring solution for small and medium-sized businesses...

“NetCrunch 5 is a unique solution that offers monitoring of Windows, Linux, NetWare, and SNMP devices in one package,” says Tomasz Kunicki, AdRem Software founder and CEO, “Other solutions monitor network devices exclusively via SNMP or concentrate on monitoring Windows machines only. NetCrunch 5 can monitor all major operation systems in a truly agentless and secure way - without the need of using SNMP.”

Major new features in version 5 include:
• Agentless Linux monitoring
• Predefined Monitoring Policies for all major operation systems and most popular applications and devices (including MS Exchange, MS SQL, Oracle, Lotus Notes, Insight Manager, Dell OpenManage, IBM Director, and more)
• User experience monitors for DNS, FTP, SMTP, POP3, and HTTP/S

Particular attention to intuitive user interface and graphical presentation of network data in AdRem NetCrunch 5 is one of significant strengths of the software. Everyday experience proves that users react faster to graphical rather than textual information, easier identify the source of the problem, and solve it faster, contributing to their increased overall effectiveness.

NetCrunch consists of WMI, RPC, SSH and SNMP monitors for monitoring variety of systems and devices, and contains over 65 built-in Network Service monitors. It centralizes fault management by collecting and alerting on events from Windows Event Logs, syslog messages, and SNMP sources. With built-in Web Server and SQL database, NetCrunch is a fast, affordable, and easy to deploy solution.
The program has been designed to run on Windows XP SP2, Windows Vista, and Windows Server 2003.
