InterMapper works very well for us for alerting and networking monitoring/diagnosis. I don't think I would want to complicate things by trying to make it a do-all configuration product. I fear that if we try to make InterMapper all things to all people it will become bloated and overly complicated. I like the "KISS" rule...Keep It Simple, Stupid!
In defense of Dartware, they've been very proactive and receptive to suggestions and InterMapper continues to improve, though lately it's been mostly minor updates (summer vacation?). I would expect them to evaluate everybody's suggestions and work viable improvements into the next release. pat On 8/21/09 7:50 AM, "Konowal, Ed" <[email protected]> wrote: > Intermapper is a great program I've been using for many years.
