Introducing an Open Source Platform for Addons for PRTG Network Monitor

Written by Dirk Paessler | Feb 12, 2009

To support the exchange of ideas and knowledge between the users of PRTG Network Monitor - including our own labs and developers - we have created an open source platform on Google's projects hosting platform Google Code. The prtg7addons project on Google Code will host various add-on tools for PRTG Network Monitor and their source code - created by Paessler and PRTG users.

For a start there are already two subprojects:

  • Custom EXE Sensor Samples is a collection of custom sensors for PRTG Network Monitor
  • "PRTG Tools family" offers clients for Windows and Windows CE and was written by Gerard Feijth

Thanks to Gerard Feijth for sharing his excellent notifiers for Windows and Windows CE. If you have a project of your own that you would like to share or if you have improved one of the tools please contact Paessler support.
