What Corionis Service Manager.NET is

Corionis Service Manager.NET is a free Windows tray application for monitoring and managing selected Windows services. Users can start or stop monitored services and change their startup type. When a selected service changes state, CSM displays and logs a notification, with file logging available as an option. The monitored list can be reordered by dragging items, and displayed service names can be edited. An optional updater can be set to check daily, weekly, or monthly. CSM installs for the current user, and each user on a system can install a separate copy. Monitoring works without administrator privileges, but management controls require those privileges and are disabled without them. The maker says it tested CSM on Windows 7 through Windows Server 2016 and supports 32- and 64-bit systems; it requires Microsoft .NET Framework 4.7.2. This version is a rewrite of the original CSM, written in C# and .NET. The release is MIT licensed and provided free without warranty or guarantee. It has no restart button because the application cannot reliably determine when shutdown has finished and a service is safe to start again.

Good

  • Free and MIT licensed
  • Displays and logs service state-change notifications
  • Allows service startup type changes
  • Each system user can install a separate copy

Watch out

  • Management controls require administrator privileges
  • Requires Microsoft .NET Framework 4.7.2
  • No restart button

Who it suits

CSM suits Windows users who want to monitor selected services and manage them from a tray application. Users who need service controls must have administrator privileges; monitoring alone does not require them.

Verdict

CSM provides service monitoring and controls for Windows, with notifications and an optional updater. Its management tools require administrator privileges, and it does not offer a restart control.
