Custom Sensor - add new tag for Value Mode of Channels
As a system administrator I use several custom sensors. For add new channels, the Value Mode can not be defined in custom sensor script e.g. powershell.
https://www.paessler.com/manuals/prtg/custom_sensorsPlease add a new tag "ValueMode" with Average/Minimum/Maximum

Support for Monitoring NetApp ASA r2 and AFX Systems in PRTG
As a Storage Administrator
I want PRTG to support monitoring of the new NetApp ONTAP-based systems ASA r2 and AFX
So that I can ensure full visibility and performance tracking of these devices within our existing monitoring environment.Context & Details
NetApp recently introduced two new ONTAP-based platforms:ASA r2: All-Flash SAN Array optimized for block storage.
AFX: High-performance NAS/S3 system designed for AI/ML workloads.Both systems leverage the ONTAP REST API but include specific changes and new endpoints:
ASA r2 introduces endpoints like /api/storage/storage-units and /api/storage/block-volumes for LUNs and NVMe namespaces, and recommends OAuth 2.0 for authentication.
AFX removes…

Dell PowerStore Storage Sensors
As an IT Infrastructure Manager migrating from Dell EMC Unity to Dell PowerStore storage systems, I want native PRTG sensors for PowerStore monitoring (equivalent to current Unity sensors) plus dedicated replication health monitoring, so that I can maintain comprehensive storage visibility without manual REST API configuration.
PRTG has a lot of useful sensors for the Dell EMC Unity storage, which we are glad to have. Unfortunately Dell announced their end of sale in August 2025 and for the first hardware generation their end of service in July 2026.
The successor to Unity is the PowerStore storage system. Unfortunately the only…

SQL sensor cluster awareness
As a database administrator I want to monitor my SQL servers that are part of a cluster avoiding false positives due to cluster failover or health. If a failover happens PRTG and the SQL sensors should be aware of it so that I can get the right notification and not be overwhelmed by notifications

Add Numeric Value Extraction to SNMP Custom String v2 Sensor
As a Network Engineer, I want the SNMP Custom String v2 Sensor to support Numeric Value Extraction (just like the legacy SNMP Custom String Sensor), so that I can extract and log numeric values from SNMP string responses (e.g., '25C') and use them for graphing, alerting, and trend analysis in PRTG.
2 votesGood news! This feature is already available in the PRTG Preview version 26.2.119.1641. You can find more details in the preview release notes. It will also be included in the upcoming stable release version 120.
Best regards,

Enhanced Cisco Catalyst 9800 WLC Monitoring Sensors
As a Network Engineer, I want comprehensive, out-of-the-box sensors for the Cisco Catalyst 9800 Wireless LAN Controller — covering SSID status, per-SSID client counts, per-SSID traffic, WLC high-availability status, and disk space — so that I can proactively manage my wireless infrastructure without relying on manual CLI checks or custom workarounds.

OCSP Support for SSL Certificate Monitoring Without CRL Dependency
As a Systems Engineer responsible for monitoring SSL/TLS certificates,
I want PRTG's SSL Certificate sensor (and related sensors) to support OCSP (Online Certificate Status Protocol) as a standalone certificate revocation verification method,
so that I can accurately monitor certificate validity and revocation status even when the Certificate Authority no longer provides a CRL (Certificate Revocation List), avoiding false alerts or "Unable to Check Revocation Status" warnings that undermine the reliability of my monitoring setup.2 votes -
Implement GCP (Google Cloud) Monitoring Sensors with Azure-equivalent Functionality
As a Cloud/ DevOps engineer, I want to have sensors for Google Cloud Platform (GCP) similar to those available for Azure, so that I can monitor and manage my GCP infrastructure with the same level of visibility and control that I have for Azure environments.

HTTP Data Advanced Sensor - Historical Debug Data Retention
As a Systems Engineer, I want to retain multiple historical debug results, when the option "Result Handling -> Store result" is enabled in the HTTP Data Advanced sensor settings, so that I can compare different responses over time without losing debugging information between sensor scans. For now only the last result is stored.

Minute-Level Email Filtering for IMAP Sensor
As a PRTG user, I need to filter emails monitored by the IMAP sensor in minute intervals (e.g., "last 5 minutes" instead of "last 1 hour"). This will allow me to achieve greater granularity and detect critical, time-sensitive email notifications (like system alerts or transaction confirmations) much faster.
Caveat: Implementing minute-level filtering will likely increase the load and resource consumption on the PRTG probe and core server due to more frequent and potentially more intensive checks.

HPE VM Essentials (VME) Cluster Monitoring Sensor
As an IT Infrastructure Manager,
I want native PRTG sensors for HPE VM Essentials (VME) clusters that monitor cluster health, host performance, VM status, and resource utilization,
so that I can maintain unified visibility across my virtualization environment after migrating away from VMware, without relying on manual custom sensor configurations.1 vote -
Native Linux PSI (Pressure Stall Information) Sensor for Improved Resource Pressure Monitoring
As a Systems Engineer managing Linux server infrastructure with PRTG, I want a native Linux PSI sensor that reads CPU, memory, and I/O pressure stall metrics directly from /proc/pressure/, so that I can accurately detect resource contention, identify performance bottlenecks earlier, and replace fragile custom SSH script workarounds with a standardized, maintainable monitoring solution.
Many organizations using PRTG rely on the built-in SNMP Linux Load Average sensor to monitor system load on Linux servers. While this works for basic monitoring, the traditional load average metric has well-known limitations: it only reflects the number of runnable or waiting tasks and does…
