WhatsUp Gold editions
WhatsUp Gold is available in four editions. Each edition tailors WhatsUp Gold's features to meet the diverse needs of WhatsUp users, from small networks to those spanning multiple geographic locations.
- WhatsUp Gold Standard Edition provides core network management features.
- WhatsUp Gold Premium Edition provides all of the network management capabilities of WhatsUp Gold Standard Edition, plus advanced management for Microsoft® Exchange™, Microsoft® SQL Server™, and SMTP email servers. Premium Edition also includes several features that let you monitor performance data in real time, as well as support for application monitoring using Microsoft's WMI™.
- WhatsUp Gold MSP Edition gives managed solution providers the ability to use all of the features of WhatsUp Gold Premium Edition to monitor their customers' remote networks from a central location in the managed solution provider's network operations center. Managing multiple companies' networks at once has never been easier.
- WhatsUp Gold Distributed Edition extends the features of WhatsUp Gold Premium Edition to companies whose networks are segmented across multiple geographic locations. WhatsUp Gold Distributed Edition can detect issues at any of the company's sites and can then report the issue to the effected site and to a central location.
Each edition includes a different set of features. The table below shows which features are available in each edition. If a feature is not shown in the table, it is available in all editions.
