RedEyes Host Monitor Description

RedEyes Host Monitor is an advanced server monitoring tool with intuitive options which enables network administrators to keep track of hosts activity and schedule automatic notifications on request failures. Setting up the app takes little time and minimal effort. However, RedEyes offers to download and install third-party components that it doesn't need to work properly; they can be excluded from installation. As far as the GUI is concerned, the program opts for a regular window with a clean and intuitive structure, where hosts can be easily added by name or IP address (including IP range).Monitor user-defined hosts The checkup frequency can be set in seconds, minutes or hours, while the testing method can be selected between Ping, HTTP request or socket connection (either TCP or UDP with a user-defined port number). The main frame records host activity and shows the tester method, result, last checkup time, and uptime. Host properties can be edited at any time, while the monitor can be paused and later resumed for any selected host. Commonly used network toolsIn addition, users may resort to some standard network tools, such as a port scanner, route tracer and source code viewer, or create personalized settings for SSH and Telnet, as well as for automatic system reboot and shutdown, apart from pointing out executable files to launch (command lines are supported). Monitor active programsA secondary panel keeps track of all active processes interested in the Internet connection, allowing users to terminate any suspicious or resource-hogging application, as well as further examine their activity in log files. Edit program settingsIn terms of app configuration, RedEyes Host Monitor can be set to automatically run at system startup until further notice. Users may adjust the priority level, customize the columns display, change Ping and port scanning parameters, enable sound and email notifications, define settings for silent mode (no kind of notifications), and more. Evaluation and conclusionRedEyes Host Monitor is certainly resourceful in its feature-set. It had minimal impact on PC performance during our tests and worked smoothly, without causing Windows to hang, crash or pop up error messages. Those interested in running the app directly from a pen drive may resort to Portable RedEyes (its no-installation-necessary twin). Advanced PC users should definitely find this tool practical and approachable at the same time. Reviewed by Elena Opris, last updated on May 7th, 2014
