PingPlotter Standard is a network troubleshooting and monitoring tool.
It will help you monitor network connections and then identify the source of the problem (when problems occur).
It can run in the background collecting data while you continue to run applications and then allow you to quickly look at the data in an intuitive graphical format when you experience problems (reduced call quality for VoIP, slowdowns or disconnects with applications, etc.).
PingPlotter is also great at allowing you to collect data over time to give you the information you really need to identify intermittent problems and allowing you to see both short-term and long-term trends.
PingPlotter allows you to "See the network", and "Pinpoint problems" by taking traceroute, ping, and whois to a new level. It's fast, and the graphical aspects make it easy to quickly see where a problem is occuring.
Alerts, statistics, and numerous other features give the you the extra power you need to find and troubleshoot problems.
Here are some key features of "Ping Plotter":
· Graphically display performance metrics about the route your data takes to a server.
· Monitor network performance over time, capturing the moments when problems surface.
· Zoom in on a problem period and construct a compelling case to have someone help you solve a problem.
· Get notified when there is a network problem.
· Save data or images, and send to others for review.
· Troubleshoot without having to call your ISP, allowing you to know about problems before they do.
Limitations:
· 30 days trial
