Important Information

PRTG offers monitoring as a service with PRTG Hosted Monitor. PRTG Hosted Monitor runs in the cloud and does not require a PRTG core server installation inside your network. We offer subscription plans that you can tailor to your needs and that you can manage via the PRTG Hosted Monitor web portal on https://my-prtg.com.

To manage your subscription, open a web browser (we recommend Google Chrome 72), go to https://my-prtg.com, and log in.
