Rate my startup: Server Impulse (web based monitoring)

#1

I am creating a web based monitoring tool for Windows servers.

It works like this: A small agent collects status information about your Windows server (cpu, events, updates, etc.), Server Impulse displays this information in your online dashboard and sends you alerts (by e-mail, sms and rss).

Please let me know what you think about my project. I really appreciate it.

Looks good but its virtually identical to serverdensity.com , which also monitors windows servers in a similar manner.

Yes, you are correct. When I thought of this idea a year ago, Server Density only monitored Linux servers. Recently they also added support for Windows servers.

Server Impulse is more tailored towards system administrators (it includes events logs, updates that are available and services running), where Server Density seems to be more tailored towards web server administrators.

Thanks for your comment!

It's no big deal but use a professional voice-over (costs about $500) in your video, it'll look much more professional.
