Keep application sort order after refresh
3 posts · Closed
Hello NetWorx developers,
I'd like to propose a minor change that might improve usability in some scenarios. This feature could be useful when a user is tracking a specific application's traffic by repeatedly clicking refresh.
Steps to reproduce:
- In Usage Report - Applications - Applications, click on "Total" column to sort by total amount of data
- Click "Refresh"
Expected:
Rows are still sorted by total amount of data after refreshing.
Actual:
Rows are sorted by application name after refreshing. (Easy to lose eye focus after hitting refresh and sorting mechanism changes)
Thank you, that's indeed a good suggestion. We have just made NetWorx remember the last sorting order upon refresh. You can download the updated builds here.
If you want to monitor apps in real-time, I would also recommend taking a look at our new NetGenius product. It is basically a modern alternative to NetWorx designed to track network usage of apps, with additional control features. Here is what NetGenius's real-time tracking looks like:

Outstanding support! Not only SoftPerfect listens and replies to questions in a timely manner, they actually act on reasonable requests and do so promptly. Very impressive.
Excellent quality, yet so rare these days.
