Pete, Nice save... Personally, I'm not going to make any judgements one way or the other as I've seen too many demos of different products that behave entirely different than the demo'd versions (not just IPSwitch's stuff) and until I try it out, I'll ho9ld my comments. FWIW, it's good to see I can run them both on the same box without problems (how's the WEB interface between the two versions work out- do we need to specify different ports to use to access the two versions so so I can transparently switch them when the time is rigth and the users won't notice anything different in the way they access it until they get into the new WEB interface??). I'm also really looking forward to not having to shut down the WEB interface to run the console piece to fix the layout of maps with newly discovered devices!

The Console UI and web interface are completely rewritten and not only very attractive, but very fast. The new explorer based UI metaphor lets you create groups and populate them with whatever devices you wish, and then view them either as a map, list or report. It's *really* slick. You can run WhatsUp Professional and WhatsUp Gold side by side on a single box. WhatsUp Professional is much more memory and processor efficient than WhatsUp Gold and won't get in the way. There's no need to set up a test box if you don't want to--the product is stable and well tested. You guys can make up your own minds as to when you move over, but I believe that once you get your hands on this product your going to love it and put it to work immediately.

There are some new really nice reports but forget the existing reports you are used to today, gone from what I can tell. The reports in WUGP appear to me centered more on individual devices, correct me if Im wrong anyone. Also if you like the cstatrpt tool its functionality is gone also. Untill they bring back the ability to run reports for set timeframes for different groupings of devices IE All routers or all devices at location X as you can do with the cstatrpt tool Im sticking with WUG for now. Dont rush and install it on your production box, set up a test box first. Just my two cents... ~ Phil Morneault "Hart, Donald (EM, ITS)" wrote: > Will there be a demo version? > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Pete > Jenney > Sent: Tuesday, November 09, 2004 9:57 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: RE: [WhatsUp Forum] What'sUp Gold Pro > > Hi Gang, > > You'll get an email which will include instructions for downloading > and activating the new product. > > Cheers! > > pete.;1 > > -)-------------- > Peter H.
