Re: The Dude Alternatives

I'm in the same boat. Dude service is crashing several times a day and restarting. Rather than jack with it I'm thinking about moving on. So far I've tried cacti, was not remotely impressed.

Re: Recommended Replacement Network Monitoring System??

Is there any NMS that can be run as PHP application on webhosting server? I mean, I have bought webhosting with mysql, php and so, but without access to system itself.

Re: The Dude Alternatives

... But for MikroTik based networks TheDUDE would be unreachable! So a real alternative is not out there as I am think of this. Forgot to add that CloudView also sends emails.

Re: The Dude Alternatives

We use http://www.cloudviewnms.com as alternative. It is called CloudView and handles any network size. We used PRTG in the past, but it is expensive with unlimited probes. Now we find that CloudView GUI is also easier
