It is designed for IT teams managing on-premises, hybrid, multi-site, and distributed environments. NetCrunch monitors network devices, servers, virtualization platforms, cloud services, applications, websites, logs, telemetry, and network traffic from a centralized platform. NetCrunch supports 680+ monitoring targets and provides 270+ ready-to-use Monitoring Packs for devices, applications, and operating systems. Policy-based monitoring automatically applies monitoring settings, Monitoring Packs, thresholds, and alerts to matching devices and systems, helping maintain consistent monitoring as infrastructure changes. Automatic network discovery, Layer 2 and routing topology maps, real-time dashboards, and customizable graphical views provide visibility into network status, dependencies, and performance. Network traffic analysis supports NetFlow, sFlow, IPFIX, and other flow technologies for monitoring bandwidth utilization and traffic across network infrastructure. NetCrunch uses correlated alerting, dependency-aware suppression, filtering, escalation, and automated response actions to help reduce alert noise and streamline troubleshooting. Automated actions can include running scripts, restarting services, terminating processes, or rebooting devices. Notifications and integrations connect NetCrunch with external IT service management and collaboration systems. Distributed Monitoring Probes extend monitoring to remote and isolated locations, while REST APIs support integration and automation with external systems. NetCrunch is self-hosted on Windows Server and can monitor infrastructure deployed on-premises, in the cloud, or across hybrid environments. Licensing is based on monitored nodes and network interfaces rather than individual sensors, checks, or metrics. Support resources include product documentation and the NetCrunch Knowledge Base, with direct technical support also available. > > Verdict: Rated **4.7/5** by 26 users.

As soon you have several locations you have a problem Support systems is restricted to special hours when you want to speak to the team Costing is not publicly listed, you have to request the team depending on your requirements ----- ### "Monitor your entire IT environment in just a few steps." — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *5 July 2018* | Utilities | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: NetCrunch can monitor your entire IT environment, be it Windows, Linux, networking gear or something else. It comes with an enormous amount of monitoring packs, that are either detected automatically or that you can add manually to the nodes you monitor. These packs come with default triggers, based on the vendor documentation or best practices. This makes it very easy to get your monitoring and alerting up and running in a very short time. Our license is based on the number of nodes, regardless of what you monitor on those nodes. That gives an advantage compared to the competition, although I have heard that the licensing might change in the future. We had a number of small issues or monitoring questions. Support responds in the same day and is very professional and skilled. NetCrunch can integrate with a number of other systems out of the box. It can also connect to IFTTT so we deliver alerts to a Telegram channel, no need for SMS. The interface is easy to understand and customize. > > **Cons**: There are not much things that I don't like, to be honest. Maybe the fact that there is a web interface, but for some more advanced changes you need the dedicated Windows client. But that is not an enormous drawback, because this client also notifies you of any alerts that are occurring. > > NetCrunch monitors our entire environment and lets us know what needs attention. We trust the software completely. ----- ### "Amazing Software" — 5.0/5 > **Quency** | *9 June 2021* | Broadcast Media | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I honestly love instead of liking, NetCrunch is system that supports other major operating systems. Its pricing its very reasonable and very easy to use. > > **Cons**: I honestly didn't dislike anything because its the most amazing system anyone could use. > > I was able to get access to a software that monitors all devices. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/30529/netcrunch?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/30529/netcrunch) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
