Goliath Performance Monitor offers pre-configured monitoring conditions for Microsoft Exchange 2013. Even though the events monitored were designed with version 2013 in mind, our customers have found the conditions to be useful across multiple Microsoft Exchange versions.
In addition to re-configured monitoring conditions, you can expand of the items monitoring by building your own custom monitoring conditions via Windows Service Monitoring, EventLog Monitoring, Process Monitoring, and Performance Counter Monitoring.
