Frequently Asked Questions

What is an enterprise network?
An enterprise network is a large-scale network that connects all of an organization’s locations, devices, and systems. It often spans multiple sites, such as headquarters, branch offices, and data centers, and includes cloud resources and remote users. Because these networks are mission-critical, they require robust monitoring tools to maintain performance, security, and 24/7 reliability.

 

Can WhatsUp Gold scale to monitor my entire enterprise?

Yes — The WhatsUp Gold solution is built to handle large and expanding environments. A single WhatsUp Gold server can monitor thousands of devices, including routers, switches, servers, VMs, and more. With the Enterprise and Enterprise Plus editions, distributed polling engines are included at no extra license cost, enabling organizations to scale monitoring to tens of thousands of devices across multiple sites. This allows teams to grow confidently without concerns about outgrowing the platform.

 

Do I need to install agents on each device?

The WhatsUp Gold solution uses an agentless approach—it monitors devices through standard protocols like SNMP, WMI, SSH, APIs, and flow data. This means you don’t need to deploy any software agents on your routers, servers, or endpoints. As a result, installation and maintenance become much easier, especially in large enterprises. You simply set up the WhatsUp Gold server (either on-premises or in the cloud) and start discovering devices right away.

 

Does WhatsUp Gold integrate with my existing tools and workflows?

Absolutely. The WhatsUp Gold solution provides a robust REST API and ready-to-use integrations to seamlessly fit into your IT ecosystem. It can create tickets in service desk platforms (e.g., ServiceNow, Jira), send alerts to collaboration tools (email, Slack, Microsoft Teams), and run scripts or webhooks for automation. This ensures your network monitoring works smoothly with your ITSM processes, notification systems, and custom applications—streamlining your operations instead of adding complexity.

 

Is there a free trial or demo available?

Yes, you can get started with the WhatsUp Gold solution by trying the free 30-day trial with no commitment. The trial is fully functional, letting you experience the platform in your own environment and see its value firsthand. If you prefer a guided experience, you can also request a personalized demo from our team.
