### "Best SNMP Server for monitoring" — 5.0/5

> **Hamza** | *27 November 2018* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I have installed a big monitor in our office with all our servers in map location with live connexion and monitoring to know the server if ok or not.
> 
> **Cons**: Itegrted the snmp client in all our sever and get all information we need for the machine, memory, disque, storage space  etc...
> 
> If a server shut down or has any error, the  client send right away the information via  sms, email as emergency.
