Domotz says it is audited to SOC 2 Type II and certified to ISO/IEC 27001:2022, and uses encryption for data in transit and at rest. Free device discovery is available; paid options include $1.50 per managed device per month, billed in bundles of 10, and a Collector Plan at $35.00 per month.

Site24x7 Network Monitoring tracks network health, performance, and traffic in real time from a centralized cloud console. It monitors routers, switches, firewalls, load balancers, wireless controllers, and other network devices. Discovery can cover IP ranges or CIDR blocks, while topology and Layer 2 maps show network structure. Live measures include bandwidth, traffic patterns, latency, packet errors, and interface utilization. NetFlow, sFlow, J-Flow, and similar formats support analysis of bandwidth use and traffic patterns. Site24x7 describes coverage from small setups to enterprise environments and support for more than 450 device types and templates. Integrations include PagerDuty, ServiceNow, Jira, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Zoho Cliq, Telegram, Webhooks, and Discord. A free forever plan covers uptime monitoring for up to 50 resources with instant downtime email alerts. Paid plans start at $42/mo (annual); Professional costs $42 a month billed annually, or $49/month otherwise. Enterprise starts at $625 a month billed annually and requires a quote. A 30-day trial requires no credit card. Android and iOS apps show monitor status, push notifications, incident details, and corrective actions.
