Know your gear
Environmental factors like heat, humidity and moisture pose a severe threat to mission-critical infrastructure. These dangers can be minimized by incorporating a network of environmental sensors to collect data and alert users of potential threats. Adding optional sensors to a Vertiv Geist Environmental Monitor or Rack Power Distribution Unit (rPDU) allows users to observe conditions from a secure Web interface and receive alerts via Email, SNMP, or Email-to-SMS.

This is an excellent product! The interface is easy to use, and is surprisingly fast for such a small device. When seeing devices like this, you think of a slow experience configuring it, but that is not the case here. Of course, the most important thing is the ability to monitor the temperature and humidity. We've had problems with our A/C unit failing before, so this is an excellent addition to our server room. Reasonably priced too.

We use these POE Watchdogs to monitor 2 separate network closets. They are extremely accurate and alert us whenever there is a problem. I would recommend these to anyone!

This device is great, we have had a few issues with the A/C being turned off or the breaker kicking off over the weekend to come in to a server room at close to 90 degrees. Since then I found ITwatchdogs Watchdog 15 Heat/Humidity sensor. We now use two of these, one at each site and they work like a charm. Email and text alerts you can't get any better than that.

The WatchDog 15 is a great product. I've been using it for a while now, and I like how simple it is to configure and use. The built-in web server lets me easily see the current temp, humidity, and dewpoint in my server room, plus it will notify me by email if a threshold I set for any of the above is passed. I have one of the notification email addresses set to my phone's text number, so that I get the email at my desk but also get a text message when there's an issue. I like that it will show me graphs of the temp, humidity, and dewpoint data that it has recorded and that I can download the recorded data to chart on my own if I like. The download has a measurement recorded every one minute. Considering what you get for the price, I'd definitely buy this product again.

What can I say? These things are rock solid, work great, and are well worth the cost. A lot cheaper than downtime...

it works and i approve
This was easy to setup for sending alert emails anytime the sensor fellout of defined ranged. It is a lifesaver for your server room.

Great product! We are using these to monitor all of our IDF cabinets and our MDF and even our UPS room. The setup is easy and the web management is nice! The spice works plugin makes monitoring them all at once easy since they don't have a controller and they all act as standalone devices.

Awesome Unit. Has been running for over a year in my server room. Lets me know when the room goes out of temperature spec via email or Text message if it gets really bad.
I can rest easier at night knowing my servers are being looked after.
Simple wall mount. I got the version with POE makes life nice, neat, and tidy.
The price was great. Well worth it.

This inexpensive monitor is simple to set up, easy to use and provides timely and important data on the temperature, humidity and dew point wherever it is placed. It is well worth the investment for the peace of mind it brings (not to mention the alert if your server room AC goes out!)
