Network Monitoring - Windows Server 2008 r2

Question

I have a server running Windows Server 2008 R2. It's set up as a DHCP and DNS server, with RRAS, Hyper-V, RDP, IIS (Apache server, MySQL, FTP) and a few game servers. Three NICs, one out to the WAN, one into the LAN and one dedicated to Hyper-V out to the WAN.

What I want is a nice tool with a GUI which will enable me to monitor network traffic and usage. Specifically, one which will monitor usage on each NIC and a breakdown of the traffic (by local client, application etc.) Preferably, with the option to export the data to xls.

From a bit of research and a few searches, there's plenty of options, but I want to get some opinions and suggestions on what to use.

Cheers, Mick.
