Paessler BlogDiscover and monitor all devices: Are you 100% sure every critical device is being monitored?You've set up PRTG and added devices to your monitoring environment. But are you sure you're monitoring everything that matters? Missing even one critical device can result in unexpected downtime, service interruptions, and those dreaded after-hours emergency calls. Let's ensure your monitoring is as comprehensive as your network. Bridging the IT/OT gap: Real-time monitoring for industrial systems made easyEver had that sinking feeling when your production line suddenly grinds to a halt, and nobody knows why? Or perhaps you've witnessed the classic finger-pointing session between IT and OT teams during an outage? "It's not our network!" says IT. "Well, the machines were working fine yesterday!" counters OT. Meanwhile, the clock is ticking, and every minute of downtime is burning money. What is bandwidth usage and how to monitor it effectivelyTrust me, I've seen this movie before - IT teams scrambling when users complain about slow apps, or worse, discovering a breach that's been lurking in their traffic patterns for weeks. These nightmares play out in companies every day, and they're expensive. One client of mine burned through $200K in just productivity losses last year because they couldn't see what was actually happening on their network. The kicker? Most orgs have the same blind spot - zero visibility into their actual traffic. Your 8-week journey to PRTG masteryWhether you're new to PRTG or looking to take your existing monitoring setup to the next level, our upcoming 8-week series will guide you through a practical, step-by-step journey to transform your PRTG implementation from basic to brilliant. Each week, we'll publish a new hands-on article that tackles a specific aspect of PRTG, designed to help you build a robust monitoring environment that delivers real value to your organization. Let's take a look at what's coming up! From SCADA to Sensors: How PRTG delivers end-to-end monitoring for OT environmentsThe modern factory floor creates an auditory blend of machinery noise and a steady flow of data. Operational technology (OT) systems no longer function in isolation from information technology (IT) systems. Instead, industrial ecosystems nowadays act as intricate networks connecting SCADA control centers with minimal temperature sensors found on refrigeration units. But with this complexity comes a challenge: What methods exist to oversee all systems while avoiding the pitfalls of using incompatible tools and creating blind spots? 4 proven ways to reduce MTTR and strengthen system reliabilityLet's face it - downtime is a nightmare on every level. And I'm not just talking about the stress of those 2AM alerts or the flood of tickets from frustrated users. I'm talking about the financial hemorrhage: $1,670 gone every single minute your systems are down. Run that calculator for an hour and you're staring at a $100K hole in your budget from lost productivity and revenue. No wonder reducing MTTR (Mean Time to Repair) has shot to the top of every IT leader's priority list - when you're bleeding cash at that rate, every minute shaved off your recovery time translates directly to money saved. Why OT monitoring is no longer optional: How to gain control of your industrial networksI still remember walking into a manufacturing plant last year where the production manager was pulling his hair out. "We keep having these random shutdowns," he told me, "and nobody can figure out why." The IT team blamed the PLCs. The operations team blamed the network. Classic finger-pointing that happens when you've got IT systems directly connected to operational machinery but no way to see how they're actually working together. This is the reality on manufacturing floors today - they look radically different than just five years ago. Synthetic monitoring: Detect website issues before your customers experience themDon't you hate finding out about website problems from angry customer emails? Been there. Nothing worse than that Monday morning message: 'Your checkout page is broken!!!' (always with multiple exclamation points). That's why I'm obsessed with synthetic monitoring. It's basically digital QA on autopilot - scripts constantly testing your site to find bugs before real humans do. I've seen it save companies thousands in lost revenue when it caught a broken payment form at 2am, hours before the morning rush. No more apologizing to customers while your competitors are stealing them away. Network audit checklist for IT infrastructure securityI've seen this scenario play out countless times - companies investing in security only after a breach has already cost them dearly. It's like frantically patching servers after ransomware has already encrypted your customer database. Reactive security isn't really security at all. Here's the truth about network audits: they're not just bureaucratic paperwork. A solid audit checklist is your blueprint for actually protecting your infrastructure against the threats that keep IT directors up at night. IOPS vs Throughput - What you need to know for optimal storage performanceWhen your business-critical applications slow to a crawl, storage performance is almost always the hidden culprit. But here's the challenge: fixing the real problem means understanding two distinct metrics - IOPS (Input/Output Operations Per Second) and throughput (data transfer rate). Get this wrong, and you'll waste significant budget on storage solutions that don't actually address your bottlenecks. Even worse, your users will continue facing those frustrating delays that impact productivity and revenue. PRTG version 25.2.106 is out now!A new PRTG stable release is here! Version 25.2.106 brings a mix of new features, improvements, fixes, and some important updates to enhance your monitoring experience. Effortless monitoring coverage: Discovering gaps with sensor recommendations in Paessler PRTGIntroduction: The monitoring challenge - noise vs. blind spots In the complex world of IT infrastructure, monitoring itself is often presents a double-edged sword. IT professionals can find themselves drowning in alerts from non-critical systems (noise) or, perhaps worse, feeling safe despite having significant blind spots where critical performance issues or failures go completely unnoticed. Paessler PRTG is designed to simplify IT monitoring, and one key feature directly tackles the challenge of ensuring comprehensive coverage without manual guesswork: Automated Sensor Recommendations. Data center capacity planning - A guide for IT infrastructure teamsEver had that sinking feeling when your boss asks if the data center can handle next quarter's big product launch? Data center capacity planning isn't just an IT checkbox - it's what keeps your physical infrastructure running when workload demands spike and executives start asking uncomfortable questions. How to find IP addresses on your network: A complete guide for IT leadersEver had that moment when the CEO calls at 7 AM because "the internet is down," and you're frantically trying to figure out which of your 500+ network devices is causing the problem? Been there. ?? Finding and managing IP addresses across your network isn't just some technical checkbox - it's the difference between being the IT hero who resolves issues before users notice and the person explaining to executives why email was down for three hours. How Network Discovery strengthens your cybersecurity risk assessmentYou can't defend what you don't know exists - that's the brutal truth facing IT teams today. With a shocking 60% of breaches involving network devices that fly under IT's radar, the invisible parts of your network infrastructure are likely your biggest vulnerability. And the costs? Devastating: downtime, data theft, regulatory fines, and that nightmare call to your CEO. |
