PingPlotter for Windows

Flexible data storage

Adjust how PingPlotter manages data to improve load times and give you more control over what data you keep and what you throw away. You can learn more about Flex Storage by checking out this article.

Test final hop only

Test only the target destination. Final Hop Only provides an easy way to decrease CPU usage in situations where you are testing a high number of targets at the same time. Alert actions for toggling final hop and full route are also available to help automate troubleshooting workflows. To learn more, check out this article.

Select a network interface card

Directly control which network cards PingPlotter uses for any trace. Compare multiple network connections in real time, test primary and secondary NICs in parallel, and monitor multi-NIC servers. You can learn more about NIC selection in this article.

Monitor route changes

Detect and inspect route based issues with two new alert conditions that trigger anytime the route changes or when a specific IP address enters the route. Both conditions can be combined with any alert perform actions like logging route changes to a file, saving .pp2 files related to specific routes, and more.

Calculate mean opinion score (MOS)

Rate network quality for each hop with the Mean Opinion Score column. MOS is a VOiP metric that rates network quality between 1 and 5. More information about how MOS is used and calculated is available in the Knowledge Base.

Timeline experience improvements

Connecting trace graph rows to timelines is easier because clicking a timeline highlights the corresponding row in the upper graph and vice versa.

The Automatically show timeline graphs for targets added to summary screens setting saves a few clicks when you're working with summaries in PingPlotter Professional.

Trigger 3rd party integrations

Run a program when your alert fires with the Launch Executable alert event. If you're looking for a starting point, check out restart_router.vbs for an example.
