PRTG Manual: User Interfaces
You can access your PRTG instance via multiple user interfaces.
The PRTG web interface is the default user interface to configure devices and sensors, review monitoring results, and complete administrative tasks. You have access to the full feature set of PRTG.
The PRTG web interface has two looks you can choose between: classic and new.
For more information about the specifics of each user interface, see the following sections:
PRTG MultiBoard is a cross-platform desktop application that you can use as an alternative interface for fast access to data and monitoring management.
PRTG MultiBoard is mainly designed to review and manage PRTG installations that are already set up. If you have just started with monitoring, we recommend that you set up your instance in the PRTG web interface first.
Additional notes
- PRTG MultiBoard is available for Paessler PRTG Enterprise Monitor users. PRTG Network Monitor users can use the Paessler PRTG app for desktop.
