Statseeker

[sgtcasey]

Is anyone else using Statseeker in their network?  My team has been using it for a while and it's so good it does all of our monitoring and alerting.  I'm not trying to plug it, just curious if anyone else is using it and what you think of it.

I use it for collecting data on a few thousand devices, it works great.  I like the simplicity and UI speed.

I'm also a big fan of NetMRI.

I used it back when it was v2 and I led the charge to go v3 when it was in Beta, in fact I picked up a bunch of bugs relating to 6500 series chassis counters and fed back to the team. They're aussies

Great product, never seen a product able to poll so many ports at such a fine interval with so little load - ran monitoring on 10k switchports @ 60 second polling on a 700Mhz PentiumIII era server! I've seen Cacti instances on way less ports on way bigger hardware fall over.

Funny you should mention how fast and non-loading that whole application is.  We're running it in production on a dinky little Dell desktop with 8GB of RAM and a 72GB hard drive.  It's monitoring 42k switch ports and sending out email alerts based on syslog messages coming in.  We need to migrate it to an actual server with more hard drive space but just haven't had a chance.

Yeh we use this on a University Campus network and it provides very useful info. I don't think we have tweak it to what we want yet, but have been pleased with it so far.
