AdRem NetCrunch

Why do you need dedicated network monitoring?

Monitoring is the layer of the IT infrastructure that decides whether an outage is a short incident or a morning spent on the phone — nothing is repaired sooner than it is noticed. Choosing a monitoring platform is really a decision about how much you agree to learn from users rather than from the systems themselves.

Without monitoring you learn about a failure from users — that is, once it already affects everyone at once. During this time, users report problems, and the IT team searches for the cause through trial and error. With distributed locations and hybrid infrastructure, the problem deepens.

AdRem NetCrunch is a Polish platform for monitoring networks and IT infrastructure, offering 680+ built-in agentless monitoring targets and automatic topology mapping. The solution allows managing even 500+ devices from a single dashboard.

How does it work?

Agentless Monitoring

NetCrunch monitors devices without software installation:

• SNMP, WMI, SSH, API for various platforms
• 8700+ MIBs included with compiler
• Automatic network device discovery
• No load on monitored systems

Automatic Topology Mapping

The system creates network maps on its own:

• Real-time layer 2 topology discovery
• VLAN and inter-device connection visualization
• Port traffic heatmaps
• Automatic updates on changes

Intelligent Alerts

Event correlation eliminates alert noise:

• Grouping related events
• Adaptive thresholds learning patterns
• Escalation and multi-channel notifications
• Event response automation
