[WhatsUp Forum] Number of devices concern

[vvaduva]

Greetings folks,

We are in the process of moving from an outsourced monitored system to an internal system running WhatsUp Gold.  I love the product, however I have concerns over the large number of devices that I want to monitor.  We will monitor right off the bat about 450 routers, plus another 50 to 100 services and servers locally.  Within another 2 years, we expect to hit a total of 800 to 1000 routers to be monitored.

Can WhatsUp Gold handle this?  I know that in theory it has no hardcoded limit on devices, but I am wondering what CPU/hardware/memory limitations we may run into  - and how this many devices could affect the polling time and loop. Maybe one of the programmers/support folks can give me some idea or some hints on what?  I would greatly appreciate it.

Sincerely,

Virgil Vaduva
