See what changed before a service stopped
Netwrix Service Monitor tells you the moment a Windows service goes down. It doesn't tell you what changed on that server beforehand: a configuration edit, a permission change, a new scheduled task, a modified registry key. That's the context most outage investigations are missing.
Netwrix Auditor for Windows Server records before-and-after values for configuration, permission, and security changes across your Windows Server environment.
Go beyond uptime on your Windows servers
Service Monitor keeps your services running. When you need to know why something changed on a server and who did it, these products go deeper.
