The ServersCheck Monitoring is a web based network monitoring software and server monitoring tool.
The software will monitor your network for bandwidth, outages, performance issues (reported over SNMP), keep an eye on data routing and much more. When you monitor servers, the software will make sure that all processes are running, that the required services are up and all disks are fine. But that is just a small list of items that the software can do to ensure that your server room is well monitored in terms of network and systems uptime.
In total it has over 60 different types of checks and is available in 38 languages. The check types enable you to perform server monitoring and network monitoring by running following checks: TCP, PING, TRACERT, DNS, URL, HTTP Content and Status, HTTP HEADER, FTP, TRAFFIC, BANDWIDTH, SNMP, SNMP TRAP, POP3, SMTP, EMAIL, LOTUS NOTES, PERFORMANCE COUNTERS, SERVICES, EVENT LOG, CPU, MEMORY, DISK SPACE, LINUX DISK, LINUX MEMORY, LINUX PROCESS, ORACLE, MS SQL, ODBC, CISCO WORKS, DELL OPEN MANAGE, MAXDATA, and much more.
When problems are detected, then it will alert you via cell phone text messages (SMS), e-mail, MSN and much more. It can even take corrective actions by restarting a server or service. Alerts can be sent to multiple people in different ways depending on day of the week and time of the day. Unacknowledged alerts can be esclated. For SMS messages you can use any PDU GSM compliant modem, like the Falcom SAMBA 75 USB GSM/GPRS/EDGE modems that we sell, or use the Internet SMS option through ClickATell.
The network and server monitoring software runs on Windows based systems (XP/2000/2003/VISTA). It is managed via a browser and runs either in HTTP or HTTPS mode.

Administrators monitor all different aspects of servers' performance and availability through software similar to ServersCheck's Server Monitoring Software. However the conditions in which servers operate are not monitored. Why wait until a server starts melting before discovering a climate control issue? The bottom line is you have to monitor the entire server room, computer room or data center.
And that's where environmental sensors come in. Sensors provided by ServersCheck not only helps in monitoring temperature, but surpass conventional standards by also monitoring the effects of humidity, possible flood risk, power outage, and immanent disaster risk. Through this, datacenters and secure holding rooms have an additional level of security, capable of not only helping to solve an issue before it becomes too great, but also alerts staff to the problem. Thus, when ServersCheck Temperature Monitoring Software receives a sensor reading of a potential contingency, then it sends messages based on the preference of the owner, such as SMS (using a GSM modem like the Falcom SAMBA USB GSM 55/75 modems that we sell) or email alerts. Quick communication is the goal of our complete monitoring solution, to prevent and protect against permanent damage.
Sensors can be connected to a host computer via USB or network enabled over TCP/IP.
Looking for an inexpensive, cheap affordable and reliable temperature monitoring solution? For only $477 USD you can have a complete USB based server room temperature monitoring solution including one temperature sensor with 20ft,6m cable with USB adapter and the ServersCheck Temperature Monitoring Software- SENSOR+ Edition. Click here for more information regarding this offer.
If you have a small computer room, then the USB sensors might be sufficient as they come with a 20ft cable. For larger server rooms or even data centers, the network enabled sensors are recommended: a centrally installed software will query over tcp/ip the different networked enabled sensors regardless of their location.

Security sensors for monitoring server racks
Monitoring availability is not only about monitoring if systems are still running or if the conditions in which they operate are acceptable. It is also about making sure that you know when people access your computer room or server racks.
When outsourcing the housing of your equipment, you want to know when someone is opening your server rack or accesses your dedicated location.
ServersCheck's security sensors is a plug and play solution to monitor your racks or computer room and alert you when intrusion is detected. It can automatically record a series of snapshots by retrieving and storing images captured from an Axis camera.
