Server Monitoring Software

[Netman06]

Hello,

What would you recommend for monitoring serveral windows server 2003 servers.

I'm interested in monitoring performance of the server and do not mind if I have to purchased sometthing, or should I just use the built in performance monitor.

Thanks,

Mike Smith

Currently I use Servers Alive (

http://www.woodstone.nu/).

It's fairly inexpensive and allows for fairly details monitoring. It's also got some basic trending capabilities built into it.
