Is there a convenient service/software for monitoring windows services and logs?

Question

Monitoring

Something immediately comes to mind only zabbix is ​​big and not convenient. But I would like something simpler.

Answer 1

I set up monitoring via Zabbix . I just had to finish a lot, but when events appear in the Windows log, I receive a notification in the mail and in ICQ.
If this is it, then go for it. But I suspect that there are more convenient solutions for windows. My method is reliable, durable, but it takes time and desire to set up.

Answer 2

The main thing I would like to see.
Services status. running/stopped
Stream from windows log errors.
Email notification.

Answer 3

What services do you want to monitor? What is wrong with the Windows log itself?
