About FastFile
A software company built around multiple platforms and a development practice
FastFile owns and provides WINMON, SERVERMON, SQLMON, and TRACEMON, and separately designs and builds custom software for other businesses.
Who We Are
What FastFile builds
FastFile is a South African software company that owns and provides multiple platforms: WINMON, an agentless monitoring platform for Windows fleets, SERVERMON, an agent-based monitoring platform for Windows servers, SQLMON, a real-time monitoring platform for SQL databases, and TRACEMON, an on-premises asset tracking system for Windows fleets. All of them are built and maintained by FastFile as ongoing products, not one-off projects.
Alongside its own platforms, FastFile designs and builds custom software for other businesses: web applications, mobile applications, internal systems, portals, automation, reporting, integrations, and the modernisation of existing systems. This service isn't limited to monitoring software or any single industry. It covers any suitable web-based or mobile solution a business genuinely needs.
Our Approach
How FastFile approaches a business problem
Whether it's a platform deployment or a custom project, FastFile starts from the problem, not a fixed template. WINMON and SQLMON were both built around a specific architectural principle: a hard credential boundary that keeps customer secrets off FastFile's cloud entirely. TRACEMON answers the same concern a different way, by running entirely inside the customer's own network with no cloud component at all, and SERVERMON's agent only ever connects outward, so no inbound port is opened and no domain credential is stored. That same discipline (understand the constraint first, then design around it) carries into every custom engagement.
Our Values
What FastFile holds itself to
Product-led and custom-development capability
FastFile builds and maintains its own platforms, WINMON, SERVERMON, SQLMON, and TRACEMON, and applies that same engineering discipline to custom software built for other businesses.
Security treated as architecture, not an afterthought
WINMON, SERVERMON, and SQLMON are built around credential boundaries and outbound-only connections, TRACEMON keeps asset and location data entirely on your premises, and that same discipline carries into custom work.
Solutions scoped to the actual problem
Custom software is scoped around the business problem in front of it, not forced into a fixed template or a one-size-fits-all package.
A practical, maintainable approach
FastFile favours software that's straightforward to operate and extend over software that merely looks impressive on delivery day.
Practical Software
A commitment to maintainable software
FastFile favours software that is straightforward to operate, monitor, and extend over software that only looks impressive on delivery day. WINMON, SERVERMON, SQLMON, and TRACEMON are all maintained as long-lived products with ongoing hardening and refinement, and custom engagements are approached the same way: built to be maintained, not just shipped.
