If you are currently monitoring a large volume of IP addresses or hostnames for your organization or on behalf of your clients, one of the most important requirements is the ability to quickly group and identify related monitors. For that reason, we added the ability to create tags a few years back as a way to easily identify groups of related monitors. For example: if you needed to monitor blacklists for multiple clients, you can easily create a tag for each individual client and assign that specific tag to the monitors related to that client.

As there is a growing need quickly identify groups of related monitors, MxToolbox recently added the ability to specify a color for your tags.  Now, you can make it easy to visually identify groups of related monitors. After creating a tag you can assign it one of eight color types by selecting the color palette square next to your existing tags.

To start adding color to your tags simply login to your account and visit the Tag Manager by selecting Tags from the black navigation menu.

Tags are available to all monitoring accounts starting at our MxWatch Basic Plan and above.  We hope that tags, and now colored tags, will make it easier for you to do your day-to-day tasks with MxToolbox.
