Network Monitoring Tool

[Network Pro]

hi,

maybe this is not the correct forum but just wondering if anyone can suggest any good network monitoring tool other than solarwinds please (mainly for cisco but would be nice if it can monitor servers as well)?

Thanks

You could try CA Spectrum.

There are also several good open source (free) network monitoring tools like Nagios, Catci, MRTG and Zabbix.
