• A bit over-powered for single PC use, but ...

  Pros

  It provides very detailed bandwidth information in one-minute increments; reports for use over the last 2, 30, and 365 days are also available from tabs.

  Cons

  This is a freeware version of a product used for larger networks. If you just want to know how much data you're transferring, it has more than you probably need. It is limited to 10 sensors; my system uses 7. It also uses a Web browser interface, which could be considered good or bad.

  Summary

  Other home-use products provide both less and more detail--less in that they don't tell you what the disk load is minute-by-minute, but they do tell you how much bandwidth is consumed by different apps, which this one does not seem to--although it may; the manual is 117 pages and I haven't gone through it in detail. It does work and installed fine on Win 7.<br /><br /><span class='notifyMsg'> Updated </span>on Aug 30, 2014<p/>Well, it worked for about a month. My main browser is Firefox, and after a Firefox update, it lost its ability to measure data flow.
