Near the 11th century village of Vinça in the South of France, Senior Software Engineer Daniel Doguet and the other developers in the Active+ Software team come up with commercial products for us to use and make our lives easier. Take ServiceKeeper for example. It makes the users’ lives easier by providing three important bits.

First it is capable of providing peace of mind. It does this by handling failure detection, service recovery and service scheduling, thus helping ward of server downtime – which as we all know can be quite expensive. Secondly, ServiceKeeper can make your lives easier by optimizing the performance and reliability of all your critical applications. Last but not least, ServiceKeeper provides ease of use and flexibility by turning all your servers into an easy to use yet robust platform.


If you did not pick up on this until now, I’m going to spell it out for you: ServiceKeeper is a Windows NT services monitoring and recovery software. It will monitor mission-critical applications, detect failures, perform recovery tasks, and inform the admin that things are going along swimmingly. It will save you money by making sure that your servers are always up and running.

Regular monitoring software is stuck keeping track of basic services; in case something does wrong, it is provides few recovery actions. Unlike regular monitoring software, ServiceKeeper will quickly detect failures and recover NT services. By the time the admin is notified, the problem may have already been dealt with. Furthermore, ServiceKeeper is also superior to regular scheduling software. Since the ServiceKeeper scheduler is Windows NT-specific, ServiceKeeper can stop, start and pause services via a predefined schedule.

To help you manage Windows services, ServiceKeeper comes with the Service+ administration console. Thanks to the console you have access to a whole bunch of useful advanced features.

Pros
  • Powerful services monitoring and recovery software
  • Peace of mind

Cons
  • Free to use only during the 30-day trial period
