Thanks, Mike! Almost no information there on your website, and what’s there is very vague, but we spoke to our contact about it today and we’ll have to see how that goes.

Hi JC,

I actually work in the Marketing dept. at Gomez and found your post from visitors linking in… appreciate the praise you gave us. I did, however, want to respond to let you know that Gomez does actually provide internal monitoring. I don’t know who here made you think otherwise, but if you are happy with the external monitoring service you may want to reach out to your contact to investigate. The link I pasted in the URL field, better explains this. Sorry for the plug, but hopefully it’s helpful…

Seth -
Thanks! I grabbed a copy of it, we’ll be giving it a look.

Lina – Thanks for the link. I’m afraid a feature that gets a single passing mention in an FAQ file probably isn’t going to be robust enough to work, or it’s going to be an open hole in the firewall for their services to come in, which I don’t think the auditors would be too excited about. But if I’m mistaken, please, let me know. :-)

The details about how to use the plugin are only available for registered users. I can email you the users manual if you like.

Why not ask the Gomez people to develop the same reliable/detailed monitor for internal servers?

what you could do is just have a program that reads what the email report says, and then processes it appropriatly…
eg, if the report contains x, email to x@whatever.com
or, extract blahblah from report, send as txt msg to 0666232323 or whatever

IPSwitch’s WhatsUp is what we use at inline.com to monitor servers, websites, applications, services, and much more.

I’m not seeing anything there that would work inside a network…

Try WatchMouse (http://www.watchmouse.com), they are ‘outside’ as well, but offer a ‘plugin’ service that runs on your own server in the scripting language you prefer.
They have a 30 day free trial.
