DU Meter is Windows software that monitors a computer’s Internet traffic. It shows download and upload activity through real-time graphs, reports, and alerts, while also producing detailed totals for network usage. Users can configure weekly or monthly thresholds and receive email reports when traffic exceeds them. The software can also prevent further Internet connectivity after an alert condition is reached. Version 9.x supports Windows 11, Windows 10, Windows Server 2025, Windows Server 2022, and Windows Server 2019, but it requires an Intel x64 (AMD64) processor and does not support ARM processors. The regular license is 8.98 USD per once, billed as a one-time order, for one computer at a time, with future 9.x updates included. The Family Pack costs 17.97 USD per once for up to five computers in one household for personal use. A 30-day trial is listed, with no free plan. Licenses include technical support and minor upgrades. Business buyers can request volume discounts or corporate sales.
Who it is for
DU Meter suits home users, home businesses, and organizations that need usage totals, threshold alerts, or connectivity controls. It also fits buyers managing multiple personal or business computers.
