    ipMonitor Database

    Reply
    I'm looking at purchasing ipMonitor and would like to know what database ipMonitor uses and is it accessable outside ipMonitor? I know it's an internal database, but any more details would be appreciated. Thanks, Charles

     Uses a proprietary binary DB- to make it small and fast. You cannot query it or access it.

    That's correct.  ipMonitor is intended to be a quick and simple, all-inclusive but entry-level network monitoring solution.  If you are looking for something more extensible/scalable, then you'll need to consider Orion.

    As nice as Orion is, the cost keeps it out of reach. But for a company of less than 700 client PCs, ipMonitor fits, right?

     Yes, that sounds like an ideal scenario for ipMonitor.   Just curious, what are your trying to monitor?
