"Good Software"
Version: BitMeter 2 3.5.10
Pros
Very good at accurately measuring bandwidth. Works on my Windows 7 64-Bit (Just run as Admin the first time you use it).
Cons
Uses quite a bit of memory.

"This is the sweetest little tool"
Version: BitMeter 2 3.5.10
Pros
Tells me everything I wanted to know about what my browser habit's add up too.
Small footprint program.
Works well as an icon in the notification area.
Works just fine on my 64 bit win 7 (I believe I needed to grant it admin rights (to the opening reviewer I say that too))
I wish I could write a program so coolCons
lol, why isn't this type of tool already inside windows....oh yeah.
Summary
Knowledge is power.
Find out how much you use.
Nothing is for free. -
"A good idea, but doesn't work on Windows 7 64 bit"
Version: BitMeter 2 3.5.10
Pros
Appears to have all of the right features, and installed easily on my computer.
Cons
On my computer, all I end up with is an animated graph with no labeling of either the x or y axis. The menu pops up over the graph on an odd, faded way, but can not be accessed by either mouse or keyboard. I uninstalled it.
Summary
I wish it worked on my computer. It looks like a nifty little utility.

"Neat Little Program"
Version: BitMeter 2 3.5.10
Pros
I like the small float graph that displays in real-time the DL/UL internet bandwidth, it's neat to see what happens to the DL/UL activities when you're surfing the web. For a small program, it allows a lot of configuration options. It takes up a small amount of memory and very light on CPU.
Cons
Can't think of any.
Summary
A very useful application to help gauge at the DL/UL bandwidth usage.

"Excellent within its limitations"
Version: BitMeter 2 3.5.10
Pros
Can quite accurately record internet bandwidth, within 95% of what Windows reports.
Records speed and usage per hour, day and month in a table and in graphical format, very useful for record keeping and usage analysis.
Highly customizable appearance and graphical window size, best interface of the 5 or so other similar utilities I have tested, also one of the most reliable, and free on top of that.Cons
Difficult to make it only record internet bandwidth. By default, it records non-internet bandwidth and other network use such as wireless printing and file transfers.
Does not work on a connection basis but on a machine basis. Ignores other machines on the network such as a second computer or Wi-Fi smartphone usage.
Unresolved bug occasionally locks up the CPU and requires a task kill to stop and a reboot to properly restart. Developer has abandoned the standalone version in favour of a much less useful browser based model.
If the program crashes, history file holding all records can get overwritten. As a result, months of logs can be overwritten. A daily backup of the three copies of BitmeterHistory.xml and the two copies of BitmeterSettings.xml file is recommended.Summary
An excellent utility that is highly customizable, has excellent recording facilities, generally works very well and is quite accurate (approximately 95%) for using internet connection bandwidth when the only bandwidth is the internet and there is only a single machine on the network.
Measures all bandwidth, including printers and network file transfers, is difficult to setup to ignore non internet bandwidth and is totally blind to usage from other devices on the network. Occasionally locks up the CPU. Development abandoned in favour of a much less useful web based model.
After having used it for several years, I can say that this is an excellent utility as long as you understand its limitations. One of the best available. -
"CPU hog even on Win 7 x64 with 4Gb RAM"
Version: BitMeter 2 3.5.10
Pros
It does what it says.
Cons
Used 30% of my CPU on a brand new win7 x64 w/ 4Gb RAM. Caused my audio playback streams to glitch.
Summary
I also suspect the accuracy of the totals. I uninstalled it.
