Turn two devices into one - unifying PRTG device credential
As a system administrator, I would like my physical devices to be represented in PRTG by a single virtual device in the UI to make things less confusing for me and my colleagues. Unfortunately, for certain devices and sensor technologies (MQTT, controller-managed devices), I need to create a second device in order to specify the address of the MQTT Broker or other "central" controller for sensor queries. Ideally, PRTG would allow the address of a device's controller to be defined in it's settings so that only one device is sufficient. Having one physical device mapped to one PRTG device would…

Stratum level channel for the SNTP Sensor
As a sysadmin I would like to see the stratum level as integer in the SNTP sensor. That way I can set limits/alerts on it when the required stratum level is not reached.
The correct stratum level is important for synchronisation of time on different machines.3 votesHi there,

Support for sensor templates (same common settings for same sensor types)
As a PRTG admin deploying multiple sensors we must make manual adjustments after auto discovery we would like to use a template to apply defaults similar to device templates so that we could reduce the manual effort the team does today.

Kubernetes Sensor
As a DevOps Engineer, I need a native PRTG sensor to monitor the health and performance of my custom applications running in Kubernetes, so that I can gain immediate, centralized visibility into their operational status, proactively identify issues at the cluster, pod, and application level, and ensure the continuous availability and performance of my services.
Kubernetes-Aware Monitoring:
- Ability to target and understand applications deployed via Kubernetes constructs (e.g., Deployments, Pods, Namespaces).
- Provide insights into the overall health and status of application deployments (e.g., how many instances are running vs. expected).
- Report on the status and lifecycle of individual application pods…

Scheduled tasks sensor
As a Windows Admin using PRTG I need to be able to monitor my business processes running as scheduled tasks so that I can ensure my business processes are executing.
Today this is done via external tools and managing them is not ideal. There was a deprecated sensor for this but nothing really took its place. See https://www.reddit.com/r/prtg/comments/1lececg/if_youre_using_scheduledtask2xmlexe_from_prtg/

Flood of notifications after PRTG restart
As user, I have a lot of alarms which I am aware of. When I restart PRTG, I get flooded with notification emails, stuffing my already full inbox and being an annoyance instead of being helpful.
I am aware that such option comes with the risk that a new alert might be overlooked. But this is a risk I as a user would take in order to work efficiently with PRTG.

WMI Service sensor
As user I want to use the WMI Service sensor with an account which has only read access as long as I use the option "Do not start/restart the service (default)".
Because the WMI Service sensor has an option to restart the service in case it is not running, the user account for this sensor must be a write user. For optimal security I might want to use read-only accounts for monitoring. This would render the WMI restart option nonfunctional but allow me to not provide PRTG write access just to monitor the running status of a Windows service.

Keyword detection on O365 sensor
As a PRTG user I would like to use the O365 sensor to be able to detect when I get an email with specific text in the subject or body so that I can monitor other processes for errors which are sending emails to report errors. Also, there's currently no option "If No Email Matches the Above Filters" for the MS365 Mailbox sensor as in the IMAP sensor.

SNMP Trap Receiver sensor can persist its state
User Story:
As a Network Administrator managing critical infrastructure,
I want SNMP Trap Receiver sensors to maintain persistent alarm states until problems are resolved,
so that I don't miss critical issues that are only reported once via SNMP trapsAcceptance Criteria:
- SNMP Trap Receiver sensors can maintain error states until problems are actually resolved, not just until the next scan interval.
- Users have multiple ways to clear persistent trap alarms (automatic clear traps, manual reset, or timeout).
- The persistent state feature can be enabled/disabled to maintain compatibility with existing monitoring setups.1 voteHi there,
