Bpytop command-line monitoring tool

Convenience

Conclusions

If you are looking for a monitoring tool for a large number of systems, bpytop is not the best product because it is intended for use on individual computers. A tool such as Icinga [8] would certainly be the better choice in that case. A comparison with top and similar programs is more appropriate. What certainly speaks well for bpytop is that it has a very active developer, with a small community, who is constantly looking to enhance the software and is happy to accept requests from users.
