IT environments are infamous for having multiple vendor services that don’t always work well together (we’re looking at you, Amazon, and Microsoft).
PRTG stands out with the ability to smoothly integrate into the broader IT spectrum; all your servers, routers, services, ticketing systems, applications, and processes talk to you harmoniously.
PRTG comes with more than 250 native sensor types for monitoring your entire on-premises, cloud, and hybrid cloud environment out of the box. Check out some examples below!
The Packet Sniffer sensor monitors the headers of data packets that pass a local network card using a built-in packet sniffer. You can choose from predefined channels. It can show the following and more:
The Cisco IP SLA sensor monitors Voice over IP (VoIP) network parameters using IP service level agreements (SLA) from Cisco. It can show the following:
The QoS (Quality of Service) Round Trip sensor monitors parameters regarding the quality of a network connection between two probes. It can show the following:
The Ping v2 sensor sends an Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) echo request ("ping") from the probe system to the parent device to monitor its availability. It can show the following:
• Response time
• Packet loss
• Target status
• Minimum and maximum ping time
See the PRTG Manual for a list of all available sensor types.
Custom alerts and data visualization let you quickly identify and prevent issues with your network traffic.
PRTG is set up in a matter of minutes and can be used on a wide variety of mobile devices.
“Great interface, intuitive, full REST support. custom scripts, rest sensors add extra value. We have been using PRTG for 10 years now in multiple environments and use cases. it has by far the best interface and very easy to setup without prior experience.”

In IT, the network analyzer is a tool that records and analyzes the traffic on your network. PRTG can monitor several types of wired and wireless networks, including WiFi networks.
A network analyzer breaks down traffic by different parameters and presents data flows as diagrams or tables. PRTG helps you break down traffic by connection, protocol, and IP address to identify the top talkers in your network. This helps identify and solve problems in your IT environment.
Network analysis keeps your IT environment running faster, with better performance, higher security, faster issue resolution, and less downtime. In turn, this creates a better use experience and helps ensure business continuity.
A network analyzer looks at a wide range of data that travels across a network. This includes:
Yes! Network analysis plays a large role in security. A network analyzer is always on, so it monitors 24/7/365. Ever vigilant, this guard dog safeguards your network through traffic monitoring, intrusion detection, bandwidth and resource usage monitoring, user activity monitoring, real-time alerts, and more. In the event of a security breach, network analysis becomes your forensic analysis tool for locating and wiping out the offender.
In PRTG, “sensors” are the basic monitoring elements. One sensor usually monitors one measured value in your network, for example the traffic of a switch port, the CPU load of a server, or the free space on a disk drive. On average, you need about 5-10 sensors per device or one sensor per switch port.
Paessler conducted trials in over 600 IT departments worldwide to tune its network monitoring software closer to the needs of sysadmins. The result of the survey: over 95% of the participants would recommend PRTG – or already have.
Paessler PRTG is used by companies of all sizes. Sysadmins love PRTG because it makes their job a whole lot easier.
Bandwidth, servers, virtual environments, websites, VoIP services – PRTG keeps an eye on your entire network.
