After I installed Leopard I couldn't get it to launch at login..... emailed support and heard back in minutes and quickly got the problem solved ( i had to update to newest realease ). All others I tried can't do what this one does.
The best of it's kind

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />NetMonitor is simply the best Network monitoring Tool of it's kind. We use it since OSX 10.1.5 and always loved it. I can highly recommend it - and hey 10 bucks isn't really much, right ?
Great App

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />I've tried menu meters and used net monitor for a few years - it's never crashed, it's stable and easy to use, and Net Monitor can be a lot more discrete with screen real estate. It allows you to determine easy to read and different graphs, depending on how you want to view information - and it gives you extra information with its "tools". Menu meters is also a good application, less configurable, but free. However, it's pretty hard to complain about the price of Net Monitor given that it's only $10 new and if you upgrade there's a 50% discount which brings the upgrade price to $5 - that's not enough money to be a determining factor in my book.
Works and Looks Great

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Those that compare NetMonitor to MenuMeters ar, IMHO, ignoring aesthetics. NetMonitor can be configured to be simply <i>beautiful</i> in your menu bar. I have a wide bar graph display with fade out and transparency, and it looks like it was designed to be part of Mac OS X, while being very functional.

I also use MenuMeters for some of its other functions, but its network graphing can't come close to NetMonitor's. I recommend NetMonitor highly.
Supreme!

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />$10 is a pittance for the quality of application and the constant updates and feature additions. I have this running 24/7 in my menu bar showing throughput and use it every single day (more than once!)
Highly recommended!
Nice tool

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Never ever support programs that try to connect unauthorized to <b>anywhere</b> without notifying you before and having an good reason/purpose for it. At least the latter one is nearly unrealizable, there is no reason.
