Introduction to PRTG 7 for PRTG 6 users - What’s new? What’s different?
Today we have published a new knowledgebase article that summarizes the differences between PRTG Network Monitor 7 and its predecessor PRTG Traffic Grapher 6 - from the perspective of a PRTG 6 user.
The new version 7 of PRTG brings together the functionalities of PRTG 6 and IPCheck 5 into one concise network monitoring application and adds a number of new features, especially some functions to ease and automate management for larger networks.
The new software has been completely rewritten from the ground up. We have taken our experiences from more than 10 years of creating network monitoring software and the feedback from more than 100.000 users worldwide to create a completely new architecture which is able to provide bandwidth and usage monitoring, as well as uptime monitoring and alerting for all sizes of networks - small to large.
Besides the new architecture the biggest change is that PRTG7 now adds almost the full functionality of IPCheck5 to the features of PRTG6.
Please have a look at the knowledgebase article for a detailed comparison.
