Paessler — Analytics & Data

What is Paessler PRTG?

Paessler PRTG is a comprehensive monitoring solution that gives you complete visibility into your IT infrastructure—network, servers, cloud, and applications—all from a single dashboard. It solves the problem of complex, fragmented monitoring by offering auto-discovery, pre-configured sensors, and easy deployment, so you can start monitoring within hours, not months.

Who is it for?

PRTG is designed for IT teams of all sizes, from small and mid-market businesses to large enterprises and distributed organizations. It's particularly valuable for lean teams that need early detection of issues to avoid downtime, as well as for mission-critical environments like hospitals, airports, and manufacturing plants where reliability is non-negotiable. If you're a small team looking for a simple, scalable monitoring solution without the complexity of multiple tools, PRTG is a strong fit. It may be overkill for personal or hobbyist projects with only a few devices, where the freeware edition (up to 100 sensors) might be sufficient.

Real-world use cases

From monitoring healthcare IT equipment like MRI and CT scanners to overseeing distributed networks across multiple factories, PRTG is trusted by over 100,000 customers worldwide. It replaces the need for multiple monitoring systems, consolidating them into one unified view, enabling proactive alerts and faster incident response.

• Auto-discovery — Automatically finds your devices and starts monitoring immediately, eliminating complex setup.
• Pre-configured sensors — Start monitoring out of the box with hundreds of built-in sensors for common protocols and applications.
• Unified dashboard — Monitor network, servers, cloud, and on-premises infrastructure in one place, with vendor-agnostic coverage.
• Proactive alerts — Catch problems before they escalate, reducing downtime and enabling your team to focus on innovation.
• Scalable architecture — From 50 to 1,000+ devices, PRTG scales without adding operational burden or requiring more staff.
• Customization and scripting — Deep customization options for advanced users when your environment demands more than the defaults.
• Mobile apps — Monitor your infrastructure on the go with mobile apps for iOS and Android, a key differentiator for many users.
