"Reliable Scalable Monitoring with Exceptional Support"
What do you like best about EventSentry?

EventSentry offers a comprehensive user friendly monitoring solution with powerful event logging performance tracking and alerting. I especially appreciate how it’s evolved over the years consistently improving in speed stability and features. The founder is actively involved and always open to feedback and the support team is top notch they truly know the product inside and out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about EventSentry?

There isn’t much to dislike. If anything I’d say the initial learning curve can be a little steep for those unfamiliar with event monitoring systems but once you get the hang of it it’s smooth sailing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great functionality but lacks API intergrations"
What do you like best about EventSentry?

Intuitive easy to use UI

Not as resource-hungry as other SIEMs

They have very comprehensive YouTube guides

Everything is bundled with the installer no need for additional software downloads Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about EventSentry?

No one-click easy to use API integrations

No autosave, every configuration change you make has to be saved this resulted in a lot of lost progress in the first days

You need to be pretty technical and mess about with the OIDs to poll devices not on the default packages list

No AI features

"A Great Product"
What do you like best about EventSentry?

Event Sentry not only provides insights to elements of security, it’s also a great tool for getting an overview about many other areas of the environment. Using the features in it’s dashboard, I can also check network connectivity, server capacity, memory utilization, and even view print jobs. It’s our essential “What the heck is going on” tool.

What do you dislike about EventSentry?

Sometimes it can be a little heavy with alerts, but this is easily solved with some simple tuning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
