Do you notice that your monitor is not working as well as before? You should know that many applications have been designed to analyze different aspects of your computer screen and thus confirm or rule out that it is renting problems. On this particular occasion, we will stop in Passmark MonitorTest, undoubtedly one of the best software of this item, which we will call only MonitorTest.

Well, regarding the specific operation of MonitorTest, we must say that it is a program with all kinds of tests that have been developed to check the function of the monitor of our PC. The service has all sorts of tests and templates, thanks to which we can analyze the state of our screen, regardless of whether it is a CRT or TFT type.

In total, we have seen more than 25 tests and experiments of monitor performance thanks to MonitorTest, all of which are complementary to each other, so you should test several to be sure. The good thing is that most of them run in just a few seconds, so you are unlikely to waste too much time, and we recommend that you insist on at least three or four of the tests to be sure.

However, one detail you must consider when we talk about MonitorTest is that although it has all kinds of tests for us to perform, it is not an application that offers conclusions by itself. In this sense, we mean that you will have to analyze the state of your monitor on your own because you will not get a specific answer or result from this platform.

In any case, as MonitorTest allows us to obtain all kinds of tests related to our monitor's contrast, definition, and gamma, you can be sure that in almost all cases, you will notice without problems the inconveniences that may exist. In addition, the creators of this utility explain that it works regardless of the type of resolution or color depth of our card.

And what kind of tests can we find within this service? Most of those considered usual have to do, for example, with putting the entire screen in one color or another and trying to find the dead spots. But unlike other applications that only take care of this type of task, this particular program has some additional ones, which is why we believe it is a more comprehensive solution.

At the same time, we have seen several help texts and tutorials available, some of them useful, thinking that this tool could be used by someone who had never had an approach to this kind of software before.

Regarding the user interface of MonitorTest, it is true to say that it is somewhat obsolete. You can see at first sight that it has not been updated for a long time, making it worthwhile because it is straightforward to interact with. Anyway, once we run any of the tests that are part of this tool, its interface takes a back seat, so in this case, any analysis loses some significance.

Before we finish, we did not want to lose sight of the fact that MonitorTest allows us to have access to a trial period of just 30 days, after which we will have to pay if we want to continue using this platform. What you should think about in this regard is that we usually do not need to analyze our monitors so many times or so frequently, so it is a limitation that does not have serious consequences.

What did we like most about MonitorTest? First, the low amount of system resources it consumes, considering that you hardly notice that it is running, and there are no traces of slowdowns or anything like that. To that, you have to add later that it has a massive amount of tests that we can perform to check the performance of our monitor, almost all of them helpful.

Of course, MonitorTest also has some less happy aspects, such as the fact that it is an application that we can use for free for 30 days only because then we will have to pay for it; and secondly and probably more important, the fact that it does not offer conclusions by itself, something that we would have liked it to be able to do.

In summary, we can recommend the installation of MonitorTest above all to those who have some basic knowledge about the operation of their PC screen on the one hand and those who do not intend to use it more than once. If you are a user unfamiliar with the subject of screens, or if you are looking for a long-term free tool, you should probably keep looking.
