Guess what! "Sensor" is Our Favorite Word

With PRTG 8, we have released the most extensive PRTG manual up to date. The PDF version  now has more than 800 pages. It’s not that PRTG became more complicated, we just wanted to make sure that our users find instructions on how to perform all everyday tasks when working with our Network Monitor. For example, the new documentation contains details about every single sensor, every setting field, and provides many useful links to resources in our Knowledge Base. Just out of curiosity, we created a “Wordle”  for our new manual document. Wordle is an Internet based service, describing itself as “a toy for generating ‘word clouds’”. It counts the frequency of all words used in a given text and displays the result as a word cloud. Unsurprisingly, we as a monitoring company used the word “sensor” most, followed by “object,” “settings,” and “device”.
