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.
