1) My biggest bugbear with the GUI is the fact you can't interact directly with the service. If running as a service I'd like to be able to go in and make changes but I have to stop the service, fire it up as an APP, make changes, shut down app, restart service.
2) Make if fully manageable via a web interface, including full functionality. See the web interface for IPMonitor for a nice interface. 3) It needs to be easier to make global changes. This has been partially addressed but can go a bit further. I would suggest keeping a separate credentials manager and then you pick the credentials to use in each check. That way when the details change or a password expires you only have to change it once. 4) Network discovery. Provide an option in the GUI to scan a network/subnet and come back with everything it finds, you can then decide what to add into your monitoring.

We think it's time for some change. The change should be "just" a GUI change not adding features/functionality. If you have some good ideas or have some examples that we could use (as idea), well then just send them over :-) Dirk Bulinckx.
