Simple app to view all the statistics of your hardware **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Angel D. | Full Stack Developer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 26, 2021 **What do you like best about HWMonitor?** HWMonitor helped me detect and view all my hardware on my computer, such as the CPU, memory, hard drives, and graphics card. It will list out all the information about your hardware such as the power usage, utilization percentage, temperature, and core frequency. I regularly check on HWMonitor to make sure that my hardware, including the CPU is running at acceptable temperatures. There is not much configuration, and it is very easy to use straight out of the app. No set up required. **What do you dislike about HWMonitor?** Sometimes when I launch HWMonitor, the screen is blank so I have to relaunch it or reboot my PC. However, most of the time, it works very well. That is the least of my concerns. **What problems is HWMonitor solving and how is that benefiting you?** Last month, my computer was overheating and HWMonitor helped me find which component in my computer is the culprit of the overheating issue. It turns out my graphics card was overheating and when I opened up my computer to check, it was surely right on the spot. HWMonitor saved me countless hours of troubleshooting because I was able to find what is the overheating problem using HWMonitor. This way, I don't have to hire an expensive computer IT to fix my computer when HWMonitor can show me what is wrong with it instantly. ### 2. a good monitoring software for android and pc **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Eduardo Jorge E. | Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 17, 2019 **What do you like best about HWMonitor?** i can see instantly how is my descktop computers hardware and also the android app where you can see the stats also. **What do you dislike about HWMonitor?** to see the stats you have to be in the same network, or at least i have no manage to see the stats of my computer network from outside them. **Recommendations to others considering HWMonitor:** i am not sure why here is with the name hvmonitor, is the hwmonitor software. it also used to have a trial or shareware version you can use. **What problems is HWMonitor solving and how is that benefiting you?** i use it to prevent hard disk failures ### 3.
