Publisher's Description
From Tsarfin Computing:
NetGong is a sophisticated network monitoring tool that allows network administrators, webmasters, and Internet service providers to monitor any networked device on the Internet, corporate intranet, or TCP/IP LAN and receive alerts immediately via audible alarm, message, e-mail, or third-party software when a connection fails. It is a powerful personal monitoring product delivering low cost, simplicity of operation, and round-the-clock coverage. Round-the-clock network availability is mission-critical to any successful e-business. Without a sophisticated monitoring solution, network devices or services can fail without so much as a peep. If that crash occurs over a holiday or weekend, you could be out of business for hours, or possibly days. Worse yet, you might find out from an irate customer. An essential addition to any network administrator's personal toolkit, NetGong allows users to tailor it to their particular area of responsibility, from a single server to a small-office LAN to hundreds of devices within a large corporate network. Corporate network managers can use NetGong to distribute responsibility among IS staffers and complement existing network management systems. Small businesses can afford to employ NetGong for monitoring critical e-mail and Web servers. Avoid costly network downtime by using NetGong as your first line of defense. NetGong continually probes and transacts with network resources on timed intervals, to test their availability and responsiveness. If a failure occurs, NetGong automatically notifies you. The result? You are back in business faster.

"A good, simple network monitoring tool"
Version: NetGong 6.1 build 306
Pros
Very easy to install.
Configuration was quite simple as well.
Gives you many options for notification when a network node is down.
The ability to add custom sounds was a neat feature as well.
Cons
Although the program worked well, there wasn't a whole lot to it. The interface is not as pretty as some of the other network monitors out there.
