Awesome Miner: The Ultimate Cryptocurrency Mining Management Software

Awesome Miner

Awesome Miner manages cryptocurrency mining on Windows machines. I’ve used it and we found it keeps many miners visible from one place, tracks earnings, and shows efficiency across different rigs. Honestly, it’s made for both beginners and seasoned operators — simple in parts, deep in others (there are exceptions).

Awesome Miner (Free Edition)

Here’s the practical picture: it was developed by IntelliBreeze Software AB in Sweden and is available at awesomeminer.com. It centralizes control for ASICs, GPUs, CPUs and some FPGA setups. I’ve noticed the web interface and mobile apps make remote fixes painless. Want a reboot at 2 a.m.? You can do that.

PurposeCentralized monitoring and control of mining operations

We found the feature set covers: miner grouping, automated profit switching, live hashrates, temperature and power tracking, and remote commands. Why use these? Because monitoring cuts downtime and can raise revenue per watt — that’s the why. That said, automatic profit switching changes what you mine based on short-term gains; it’ll boost short-term payouts but can increase pool churn (controversial, I know).

  • Supported hardware: Antminer and Whatsminer ASICs, NVIDIA and AMD GPUs, CPUs, some FPGA boxes.
  • Supported miners: common engines like CGMiner, BFGMiner, Bminer, lolMiner, PhoenixMiner, T-Rex, NBMiner (many others).

Monitoring includes real-time hashrate, temps, power draw, pool status, and alerts by email, Telegram, webhooks and push. Mobile apps for iOS and Android let you act fast — useful when a rig overheats at 3 a.m.! (been there.)

Editions & Pricing (note: check site for exact current prices)
Free EditionUp to 2 miners, basic features, free forever — good for testing.
Standard / Professional / EnterpriseHigher miner limits, advanced automation, priority support. Enterprise has been tested with over 200,000 miners (reported by the developer).

System requirements are straightforward: Windows 10 or 11, Windows Server (2016–2022). You can use the web UI from Linux machines but the full Windows client runs best on Windows. RAM: 4 GB minimum; 8+ GB recommended for bigger operations.

“Automation reduces manual checks. You’ll still need someone to make decisions.” — practical advice

Pros and cons? Short version: it’s powerful and scales from hobby rigs to large farms, with strong automation and many integrations. But it’s Windows-centered, can be pricey at scale, and advanced features have a learning curve. Depends on your niche and budget.

One counterintuitive insight: switching to the most profitable coin every hour can lower long-term net yield because of pool fees, stale shares and network shifts. So, watch this — sometimes steady mining on a reliable coin wins.

For developers: there’s a REST API for integrations, plus webhooks. Example call (pseudo):

GET /api/miners  HTTP/1.1
Host: awesomeminer.local
Authorization: Bearer 

A few caveats: this doesn’t always work the same way for every GPU model; performance depends on firmware and drivers. Also, mining economics changed after 2022 and keep shifting — check pool fees and electricity rates. To be fair, regulatory rules vary by country (there are exceptions).

Analogies? Think of Awesome Miner as a fleet dashboard for trucks: it tells you which truck is idle, which needs fuel, and which route is expensive. Or, like a thermostat that also tweets when it breaks. Oddly enough, the simplest dashboards often prevent the worst downtime.

Final note: you can get started free, test features, and scale up. How aggressive you get depends on power cost, hardware age, and local rules. Want my opinion? Start small, automate basic alerts, then add profit switching once you understand its trade-offs.

— I mean, that’s how I’d run a small farm. We found it saved hours each week.

Quick Checklist
Before you startConfirm OS support, secure API keys, set up alerts, and test reboot scripts (small tests first).
When scalingUse groups, enable failover pools, monitor power and temps closely, and track profitability per rig.
