456 Chapter19·GFINetworkMonitor'sAdditionalComponents Summary As you can see, GFI Network Server Monitor is by far the easiest GFI product to use that I have covered in this book. Even so, that does not in any way reflect negatively on the product's usefulness. While there are definitely more comprehensive server monitoring products on the market, GFI Network Server Monitor is unique in that it is simple to use. An administrator can install the software and begin monitor- ing their network in only a few hours. Some of the other network monitoring products I have used require a week-long training class and extensive deployment planning prior to installation. GFI Network Server Monitor is ideal for administrators who want to keep things simple, and who do not have the budget for the more comprehensive server monitoring products available, nor the time to deal with their complexities. Solutions Fast Track The Activity Monitor The Activity Monitor can display the engine status and the monitoring checks status. If the Monitoring Checks Status screen gets too crowded, consider viewing an individual folder rather than the whole network.
