This is a great product; definitely worth your time to try it out.

Nice little gem of a tool to use for companies that don't want to spend more on logging software than the actual applications and systems that need to be monitored.

SENSITIVE CONTENT] from CornerBowl is awesome. He is extremely attentive and does everything in his power to help his users get the software set up the way they need it.

There are also numerous YouTube videos available to help get things configured. The developer's passion for this software is evident, as he's eager to assist with any issues.

Can not increase syslog queue. Some log configurations are more difficult than it should be.

Great software with excellent customer support.

Product easy to use and setup. It allows us to Monitor Event Logs.

So far, good, one issue so far, but this was solved within a day with support. And so far, what data I needed to gather, I have been able to gather with minimal difficulty.

The flexibility and extensibility of this software is amazing.

Easy, lets me know about problems before they get worse.

I would say about the email alerts integrated with multiple agents associated with various templates. Real-time alerts really help to manage business efficiently.

I love the endless customization's that are possible with Corner Bowl Server Manager. Essentially, if there is a will, there is a way with this product.

I have been using this for the past 8-10 years (I don't remember when I first started using it) and it has been a lifesaver for me and my customers.

No real faults but I struggle at times with configuring different options. This is mainly due to the fact that it could be months between setting up a new monitor.

Ease of setup and configuration is smooth. User interface is simple to navigate and adjust settings as needed.

Simple software with a good amount of features, great price and gets the job done.

Easy to use ready templates for all basic monitoring needs. Customizable for more advanced monitoring and logging.

The developer has always been very responsive to inquiries.

The product is easy to use and has a plethora of features. One, very basic report that we like is the one that identifies disc space on our servers.

We also are very happy with the support. Response time and willingness to help is superior and says a lot about a company.

Nearly none of them is as capable as this. One competitor we used the last 15 years was quite good.

Honestly, I am learning a lot, not just the features of this product but as a whole this product helps me improved my IT knowledge and skills.

That is no fault of the software and the developer now posts how-to videos I believe so I should check those out.

The software is easy to set up and manage. It is template based, so once you have a good template set up, group your devices, and then mass deploy templates to all the devices.

Very easy to use at a great price with good support. Weekly reports give us a good idea of what is going on with the machines in the system and it hits all of the auditors check boxes.

The breadth of features is great. I doubt I have scratched the surface of what can be done with Server Manager.

Easy way to integrate Databases for logging. Group creation by test or asset type (By CPU, Hard disk, ).

Provides a wealth of information from our DCs and helps of stay in compliance.

Never any production down incidents as we have had with others. The support is fantastic.

Provides great support, pretty easy to use, new features added with no additional cost, low requirements. Great way to stay on top of your critical items like services.

I get a separate report of login anomalies. Very helpful to keep a close eye on the pulse of the server environment.

Ability to customize the output and notifications.

Tough to get WMI work with machines that are NAT'd, sometimes requiring a local administrator account for multiple machines can be difficult.

Support team is super responsive, attentive and extremely professional. The first setup is easy with excellent guidance from the team over the phone and/or remote support.

It's sometimes a little awkward to manage templates, reports, schedules, etc. in the user interface.

Easy and affordable excellent reporting and retention.

I've been very happy with the software and anytime I've needed help there support has quickly helped me out. It helps me meet the PCI Requirements I need to fulfill  monitoring my servers.

Price was also very good. Support response is excellent.

The ui is somewhat confusing at times. Often searching the right button to press to do what I need/want.

There is no public API and limited integrations.

Ease of access and lots of data to work with when troubleshooting a problematic network. The Obkio device integrates easily onto the customer network and provides instant reports.

Great team to support us, and great tool to help us with our customers issues.

A few more integrations would be required to make this a proper alarming tool.

The ease of use and data-rich interface helps our team resolve complex performance issues in no time.

Very easy to deploy and the visual part with the graphics.

It is priced fairly low for the amount of features you get.

Easy to install even in a complex network environment.

It's very easy to implement and their team has a very good customer service.

Integration was easy, does what I need and couldn't find any issues.

The tool you need to have to be ahead of problems.

They have hardware agents when needed. Oh, and they listen to the customer, which is awesome.

The sales and support staff that we have interacted with are very knowledgeable and we trusted they would be able to help us.

Great Graphical inteface, easy to read and easy to get a overview of the network.

The simplicity of installation, the Dashboard simplicity, the QoS monitoring (using DSCP values) and the affordable price of the product.

There are very few things I don't like about Obkio, however since I need to fill in this field The only issue we've had is with cost, especially for a network with a larger number of sites.

Monitor issue and realize that you are often not the source of the problem.

Obkio is so user friendly and has so much power in simple views that has not only met our expectations and needs but is giving our organization added value in our Operations and Project teams.

Impressed with quality of product and easy of deployment.

Easy to setup and implement, gives you basic site-to-site availability monitoring and graphs. Traceroutes are a nice to have for transient path changes too.

Awesome team, just as efficient as their products.

Working with Obkio team is knowing that you are in the best hands. True experts that offer the best solutions for your infrastructure.

As with so many support apps the setup is usually the most diffcult part and they were readely available, responsive and knowledgeable! so excellent customer support.

The support is excellent, when we have questions or to help us as needed. The software is very well done and it quickly identifies network problems.

Great application, we love it, monitoring is really easy and gives us results clearly and quickly.

The team behind Obkio is absolutely amazing and passionate about what they do.

Setup alway the biggest obstacle but this is to be expected from so many apps.
