Product testimonials (1/2)
“Since installing and configuring GFI Network Server Monitor on our network,
I’ve been wondering where you guys have been all my IT life! Not only did I
have monitoring checks set up and activated for my entire network in less
than an hour, I was already realizing that I’ll get a full night’s sleep in the
event of an outage because it will take care of any reboots and service
restarts for me! Thanks GFI, you just made this IT Exec extremely happy!”
– Robert J. Hantson, CTO/CIO, QBOS, Inc. Dallas, TX, USA

“We use GFI Network Server Monitor to monitor over 40 servers and to
validate Exchange, SQL and Active Directory services – the simplicity of setup meant we were up and running within a couple of hours and our Helpdesk
group now has the ability to see at a glance should any systems go offline.
Another great GFI product!”
