Meer informatie over PingPlotter

Occasionally the tracking stops, either due to a hotkey pressed or just for some reason the site I'm tracing just stops tracking.

Looking at the Pro version. The tool works very well, but limited in ability for its price.

3,0 7 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: Visibility of some network issues. I would purchase some licenses immediately if they were 1/5 of the price (which is where I would put a price on this software) however since the seat license is so high, I will look for other solutions.

Pluspunten:

Graphical representation of IP traceroutes and ping stats done at the same time. The graphical information is clear and concise, with the ability to scroll through a timeline to some extent. The software cleanly loads in Win10 without crashing.

Minpunten:

Timeline information needs work as it's not intuitive to scroll through specific times/dates. There is no obvious way to look at a time period over 7 days and examine a 3 minute interval in detail for example. Pricewise; I purchased a Fingbox which is a physical device which has a lot more ability than this software although the uses are different I feel the value for money for this software is not good! The price of this software is way over priced for the pro version. There are no bulk purchase discounts at all so no incentive to purchase more than once license at a time. The features the software offers is very small for what you would expect at the price. There are many free tools out there which seem to do the same thing. Ultimately it won't take long for someone to write an equivalent at a sensible price. The trial period for the pro version should be longer. I didn't really get much time to spend on customisation. Take out the weekends and normal busy daily activities and there isn't really much time to spend on the testing it in 14 days.

Excellent product to take into account for intensive control of a network.

5,0 2 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: I really liked it as a tool, I think that everyone should have a network monitor of this caliber continuously to be able to rest easy.

Pluspunten:

The facility that it provides to use immediately, it took me just a couple of minutes to start monitoring the network and to be able to make an operating diagram.

Minpunten:

the inability to make comparisons of time ranges simultaneously in a single analysis

A simple to use tool that tells you the state of your Internet connections

4,0 6 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: I got PingPlotter because I was having flaky Internet connections, and I couldn't figure out what the problem was. I could use Email and simple web surfing, but anything more than that was difficult at best and impossible at worst. Windows 10 Ping program wasn't very helpful. I went online looking for a better, free solution, and I saw many recommendations for PingPlotter. PingPlotter comes with a 15 day free trial of the Pro Version, and that turned out to be very helpful. By monitoring multiple targets continuously over several days, I found patterns in my Internet connection that helped me figure out, in consultation with my ISP where the problems were. I am now working towards a resolution of those problems. I highly recommend PingPlotter as a simple-to-use, helpful tool for diagnosing Internet connection problems.

Pluspunten:

Easy to download and install. 15 day free trial Easy to use. It's almost intuitive, but where it isn't intuitive, the help files are actually helpful. Provides helpful graphics that show the path my data is taking, how much packet loss is occurring, and where it is occurring. In the Pro version, you can continuously ping and monitor multiple targets for hours.

Minpunten:

The free trial comes to an end. :-( The graphics would sometimes hang up when I was running continuous monitoring for hours, forcing me to reset and restart.

Carrier issues validated

5,0 6 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: We’ve been having service outages with our Commercial- Time Warner/ Spectrum Cable internet service for a few months. We’ve had five different technician visits over this time trying to resolve the same issue. With all of the visits we have replaced every piece of internal house cabling and external drop to the pole tap, and all the modem/ router/ switches. And at a serious cost! The last two visits were by senior technicians and they came with laptops to show us the health history of our account. We had be writing down the times and dates of the outages to help them pinpoint the problem. What we found is their sampling rate time frame is way broader than they were telling us. Meaning we could tell them the service was out for say an hour on this day/time, but they couldn’t see it on their tools dashboard. Looking forward to clearing up the intermittent outages problem. Many thanks!

Pluspunten:

Easy of install and use. It wasn’t until we installed Ping Plotter and took screen shots of those subsequent days for QOS proof did they start to get somewhat serious about the problem! Up till then it was a patch it and move on. patch it and move on mentality. Now that we have our own tool, we gain better QOS data.

Minpunten:

Glad to report we did not find any issues with the software.

PingPlotter helps find ISP Packet Loss issues

5,0 3 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: I've found the solution easy to use and very helpful in showing status to my ISP and others. The online help has been useful as I investigate my observations, etc.

Pluspunten:

PingPlotter continually monitors and is easy to see when issues arise. I'm watching for packet loss with my ISP. Very helpful to see the total history of events!

Minpunten:

I love the software, but wish it were more affordable for my size implementation (home office). The trial version is great and I would love to keep it always, even after I have resolved (hopefully) my current network troubleshooting. It makes sense to have now... I would love to pay something like a $30 cost vs. monthly fee. It is just me at the home office.

Best End-to-End View of Network Latency

5,0 2 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: PingPlotter has provided great insights into the performance of my network. With a combination of routers, switches, wireless access points, and application servers located in five physically separate locations, PingPlotter has helped me understand performance and isolate problems in each segment of the end-to-end network. No more questioning whether the problem is related to the transport network or my internet connection or an overloaded server. On one screen, I can now see a break-down of latency and jitter, as well as their cumulative effects on application performance and user experience. On that same screen, I can see outliers and anomalies at-a-glance. And because PingPlotter offers a very efficient way to gather a large number of samples, it eliminates laborious manual testing and produces more reliable diagnostic outcomes.

Pluspunten:

PingPlotter Professional makes it extremely easy to test, observe, and track performance for a large number of network elements and servers. The ability to define and store customized testing profiles together with the ability to import plain text lists of targets (IP addresses and common names) makes it simple to automate otherwise tedious network monitoring tasks.

Minpunten:

Editing capabilities within the GUI are limited, which drives me (occasionally) to stop ping testing, make edits externally, reimport target list files, and resume ping testing. It would be handy to have a text editor available within the GUI, wth the ability to apply changes on-the-fly.

Very Happy with Ping Plotter

5,0 3 jaar geleden

Pluspunten:

Ping Plotter is extremely easy to use and understand. I am a novice with network issues and in the past have always relied on my internet provider to diagnose any issues with my network. With Ping Plotter i was able to provide my network provider the information that shown where the issue was and allow them to fix the issues at the source.

Minpunten:

I was looking for something that was powerful and free, but found that Ping Plotter was the best, but is not free.

Great product, great service!

5,0 2 jaar geleden

Pluspunten:

This product has been a staple in our environment to monitor trends to verify our customers experience is always as they expect. The network analysis and graph with logging is huge for us. Its also nice to still see some products that are a GUI instead of web interfaces.

Minpunten:

no complaints from us. it does everything we ask at a great price.

PingPlotter

5,0 5 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: Great software. Keeps a live ping going while working on troubleshooting.

Pluspunten:

Easy to use and manipulate. Provides quick look into network tracking. Comes in handy to see where you are dropping connection.

Minpunten:

There is not much on the Cons section of this software. We have used it for years and are very satisfied.

Ping plotter is easily one of the the most useful and polished tools I have ever used.

5,0 7 jaar geleden

Pluspunten:

The network discovery tool is easily worth the price of entry and I have used this utility almost every day since I purchased it. No more guessing where that IP is being assigned or where that rouge DHCP address is coming from. Brilliant, well packaged, easy to use, I recommend to anyone that has ever had to TRACERT anything.

Minpunten:

None that I can see, maybe the setup of some of the advanced features is a little convoluted. Great app.

Packet drop loss

5,0 2 jaar geleden

Pluspunten:

Checking on jitter and packet loss helps let me know if the field techs will have issues connecting to the server to complete work orders.

Minpunten:

The install and running the software was great. Could use setup instructions.

Packet loss issues

5,0 3 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: It is the simplest software to identify and resolve any issues related to network problems

Pluspunten:

After experiencing video lag and problems on MS Teams and Zoom, PingPlotter allowed me to narrow down and identify the core issues that were causing the problems, and further investigate with the router manufacturer

Minpunten:

It can be complex to know how to use if you do not first watch tutorials or be guided by someone who has experience

PingPlotter for Network Troubleshooting

5,0 3 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: PingPoltter helped to identify and locate the specific hops that were causing intermittent service interruptions and highy latency issues.

Pluspunten:

The product is easy to install and use. It is great for capturing traffic over long periods of time. It comes with a friendly graphical interface which makes it easy to find packet drops and connection failures. This made it easy to identify issues and submit the results to our internet provider for quick resolution.

Minpunten:

I couldn't find any feature that was missing nor could I find anything that wasn't included in the product.

Excellent program to use when you have problem with your internetconnection

4,0 7 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: It is really easy to convince/show my internet supplier that i have big problems with my internet Connection (Speed is Awful ow at the moment)

Pluspunten:

Í usually check my internetsupplier who is not living up to what they promise. With this program i can make a log file over severel hours (Over Night) to proove to them that the internet Connection is bad (Low Speed).This is of cause very helpful to convince them about the problems that occurs many times during the day/night/weekends etc

if everything ran as well as PingPlotter

5,0 3 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: PingPlotter does what it says. But that's not all. In my two instances using PingPlotter, both times their technical support team offered not only help with product usage, but expert guidance and education to help me understand the nature of my issues. This went far beyond help. Even if another product delivered similar results, the quality of customer service is tops.

Pluspunten:

PingPlotter has solved both my ISP related issues AND my own semi-self-inflicted user error.

Minpunten:

This is so minor that I almost don't want to mention it, but in an update using the cloud version, the UI changed enough that I needed help from their support team.

PingPlotter is the easiest way to distinguish if a network issue is happening in LAN or ISP

4,0 7 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: It clearly identified an intermittent packet drop pattern that was originating from a modem that went bad when our ISP's bs level 1 tech support was saying that it was probably our router or inside our network. I ran it from a PC connected directly to modem. Used the graphs to make my case to ISP. They replaced the modem, problem disappeared.

Pluspunten:

The history diagrams give you proof to bring to your ISP to show that your modem needs replaced or that they the issue is not on your end.

Minpunten:

I don't like the licensing approach. I bought a full pro license on a PC at our office but I want to use it outside of our network as an IT consultant. It's a great tool but rarely needed so having to repurchase it to use at a different location is just not worth it.

PingPlotter

4,0 5 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: I loved it. I have used multiple tools for troubleshooting problems in the networks, but this one is pretty good for people that like to see what's going on.

Pluspunten:

I love the tools it provides. You can do traceroutes and pings simply from your command prompt, but PingPlotter allows the user to have visuals... plus, it's shareable.

Minpunten:

There's very little help on understanding what the tools mean. If a user doesn't understand how the traceroute works, they may misinterpret what they're seeing. They could be seeing an issue when, in fact, there isn't really one.
