Currently running on Release Candidate 2, it’s running very no real issues.

  1. Be able to set color thresholds 0%-35% = Green, 36%-75%= Orange, 75%-100% = Red.

  2. Ability to extend the watchlist length to at least 20.

  3. Ability to move / resize widgets around the page or add /remove them

  4. More than one login.

  5. Tie back to inventory, maybe add a “Monitor this device” button at the device level

Links to the videos in the corner, man you guys have fun. I would love to share some of them.

If you need help designing a mobile dashboard let me know, that’s one of the things we do.

Of that lot I know that multiple logins is on the cards and Babbitt has a workaround to do that with the RC - search this group.

The ability to play with thresholds on a device by device basis is also on the roadmap, so I can’t see the colours being a major issue for them.

Hi guys. Thanks for the feedback.

  1. This will be coming very soon after the first release. Both for the global slider on the settings page (slider currently doesn’t change colorization, just alert levels) and individual device threshold editing per monitor.

  2. There has been requests for more customization on the dashboard and we plan to discuss this more in the next beta group we will open up in the next couple of weeks to discuss the future releases. This is something new we will be doing to keep all the good feedback rolling. We also will probably be on a much shorter release cycle since we are a separate app.

  3. Same as 2

  4. There is a work around here.

  5. I’m not sure how/if we will have Spiceworks Inventory “talk” to Network Monitor. Much to be discussed about this still.

There are a ton of videos here if you want to check them out/share them. We will have to see if there is enough requests to implement a sharing feature.

In terms of the tieback to Spiceworks – what about adding it as a link under the apps drawer on the top bar? I can go there to open my helpdesk and inventory, why can’t I go there to open my network monitor? That would make switching between the two a lot easier.

We would like to add this in at some point and have been talking about how to have the two apps find each separate installation. It’s proven to be a bit trickier than expected. Lots to be discussed internally still about how we could possibly do this. From feedback in this group and one on one chats, everyone has lead us to believe that Network Monitor will be used more like a NOC screen that you leave up all day on a monitor and have less of a need to bounce back and forth between the core app and Network Monitor so that has put that on the back burner.

Not sure if this should be a whole other Feature Request, or just and addendum like this, but in addition to per-device threshholds, it would be great to have some notion of threshhold groups. For example, all of my Exchange mailbox servers have high but similar memory utilization; they should never have memory utilization that looks like my domain controller, but it would be valuable to know if they’re going out-of-range for their expected use. Does that make sense?

Makes total sense. We’ve had this requested before and would like to somehow incorporate it into the per device threshold editing we will have. This probably wouldn’t make it in at the same time we put in the per device threshold editing, but I could see it being something we will implement once we see how people are using these per device settings and enough people ask for it.
