That statement actually includes the per-device licensing model, which should appeal to those who need a comprehensive view of every monitored device as opposed to the sensor-level model offered by fellow Editors' Choice winner, Paessler PRTG. That negative aside, however, the software has a lot to offer.

WhatsUp Gold starts at $2,740 for 25 devices, which is fairly solid in this category.
