The Platform

Everything included.
Nothing to assemble.

Most monitoring tools grew by acquisition — a plugin here, a module there. NetCrunch grew the other way: twenty years of one codebase, one console, one data model.

NetCrunch 16

A thoughtful upgrade, inside and out

PostgreSQL under the hood, AI at the edges, and probes that keep working even when the connection doesn't.

New

Proxmox VE monitoring

Hosts, VMs, containers, storage and cluster health — auto-detected in a clean, structured view.

New

Web Transaction Monitor

Replay real browser flows — logins, forms, Shadow DOM, mobile layouts — to catch what ping can't.

10× faster

PostgreSQL event database

Event history moved to PostgreSQL 18 with a partitioned schema — and open to standard SQL reporting.

Distributed

Flow Servers & offline probes

Multi-site flow collection; remote probes monitor through outages and replicate on reconnect — even air-gapped.

Predictive

Forecasting alerts

Get alerted when a value is expected to breach a threshold within days — capacity planning made proactive.

AI-ready

MCP Server & Ask AI

~50 automation tools for AI assistants, plus in-console Q&A answered from docs and the knowledge base.

Security

MFA · Master Password · FIPS

Multi-factor console sign-in, encrypted-data protection and FIPS compatibility mode.

Console

Faster UI + mobile PWA

In-house grids breeze through 100k rows; the phone console adds push notifications via secure relay.

Integrations

ServiceNow & Rootly AI

One-way ITSM alert delivery, plus two-way incident sync so resolved incidents close their alerts.

FAQ

Good questions, honest answers

Do I need to install agents on every device?

No. NetCrunch is agentless by design. It discovers and monitors devices using SNMP, WMI, APIs and other protocols — no installations required.

Can I embed or share dashboards outside my team?

Yes. You can share read-only views with external users or embed live dashboards in other portals using simple links or iframes — see the documentation.

Is setup really fast, even at scale?

Yes. NetCrunch is designed for large-scale deployment from the start, with optional free setup help. You can onboard thousands of nodes without scripting or plugins.

What makes NetCrunch different from tools like PRTG or WhatsUp Gold?

It's truly all-in-one. No plugins, no hidden modules, no "you'll need another product for that." Everything from traffic flow to alerting to dashboards is built in.

What if I need to grow — will I have to reinstall?

No. NetCrunch upgrades between editions without reinstallation or data loss. Just apply a new license key, and you're set.
