New in DEKSI Bandwidth Monitor 3.0 (Oct 22, 2014)
- Improved the program's performance for operating with the bandwidth sensor and host database. The group operations work much faster now.
- Improved the SNMP sensor performance. To use this advantage you need to disable the "Use SNMP WinAPI" option (in the program settings) which was enabled by default in older versions.

New in DEKSI Bandwidth Monitor 2.7 (Feb 11, 2014)
- Added ability to generate alerts when the network traffic consumption quickly grows or drops. You can define the per cent of changes between two consistent values for raising alerts.
- Added displaying the network interface capacity indicator.
- Added support for the AdminStatus and OperStatus flags in the SNMP sensors.
- Added sending alert messages to Syslog.
