Application Problems Sound Familiar? Scroll over icons below.
No Value Seen in IT?
Users Finding Problems Before IT?
Applications & Services Failing?
Can't Trust Availability Reports?
Getting False Alerts?
Too much Downtime?
The Problems:
The Solutions:
Missing SLA Targets: Management is setting Service Level targets and IT is not hitting them. How do you implement SLA reporting and SLA management quickly? Why are they being missed and what we can IT do about it?
Get in Sync with SLA Management: Start with just a few applications or services that are important to the business. Set Service levels that are attainable by IT. Make sure your software can alert you if your Service level might miss it's target before it's too late to take action. Make sure the business can understand the Service Level Reports.
The Problems:
The Solutions:
No Value in IT: We need to prove that IT is providing value to the business, keeping critical applications available. How does IT prove that it's doing its job?
Justify the Value of IT: Accurately track and report on IT services and applications in terms that management can understand. Use graphs to illustrate these points by breaking reports down by IT service (application) or by business unit. Use Service level agreements to prove you are meeting your targets.
The Problems:
The Solutions:
Users Finding Problems Before You Do: Remeber "Reactive means Pain." Are applications or services going down and you're the last to know. Be more proactive with IT service monitoring and application monitoring, with better and more useful reporting.
Monitor, Monitor, Monitor: Be sure that you are monitoring the right things with your application monitoing software, like business applications instead of useless metrics. Monitor the end-user experience of key applications like Email, CRM, ERP, BI, and more. Send out alerts on component failures or degradation of end-user experience to keep services inside thresholds.
The Problems:
The Solutions:
Why are Services and Applications Failing? Is this problem Server, Application, or Network related? It's hard to find why the service or application is slowing down or stopping. Who owns the resolution? I need more data to correlate service outages to root-causes?
Get the Info You Need: Monitor and record the granular and detailed metrics you need to identify core bottlenecks with application performance. Use this data to identify true root-cause and solve the problem.
The Problems:
The Solutions:
Can't Trust Availability Reports: Having trouble generating accurate reports on the availability of IT services and applications? Can't put together the whole picture of IT service and application availability?
Simple, Trustworthy Reporting: Ensure that the right metrics (ones that impact IT services) are being consistently monitored by your application monitoring tool. Find a solution that can integrate application performance and application availability in dashboards and reports to make your life easier. Look for additional capacity planning and server monitoring capabilities that integrate.
The Problems:
The Solutions:
Too Many False Alerts: It's tough to trust the alerting and application monitoring because the system is "crying wolf" too often.
Robust Alerting: Be careful not to monitor low-level services if you mean to monitor applications. Trial a different monitoring tool or monitoring tools so you can find the best alerting fit for your organization. It's essential to try before you buy.
The Problems:
The Solutions:
Unruly Downtime: It's essential to limit unscheduled downtime when it happens. Why is it so hard to get things back up and running? Are availability reports and SLA reporting skewed by scheduled downtime for maintenance? Can't some simple tasks, like service recovery, be automated?
Automate Service Recovery: Look for application monitoring software and IT systems monitoring that not only notifies you with alerts, but will proactively recover services for you, whether you're busy putting out other fires or on a beach relaxing. Let your software solution do the work for you.

review of up.time
UnixReview.com - "What an impressive product this is..."
"There is something to be said for boastfulness. It is fun to read a caution on
the uptime software web site that says, 'up.time installs in minutes and works exactly as
advertised. It is even more refreshing to find that there is really something to back it up.
I hesitate to use the expression "best browser-based monitoring software" because
those things are always bandied about in reviews to the point where they lose significance,
but in this case that has to be said. I hope the following sections will do some justice to
what an impressive product this is." -

Review reviews up.time
SunHelp.org - "up.time is a Set it and Forget it Monitoring Tool"
"A couple of years ago, I finally decided to look at commercial offerings again (despite
a bad experience with HP OpenView) and had the opportunity to use up.time. Once I set it up
to monitor my systems, I didn’t have to deal with it. To quote a late-night infomerical,
“set it and forget it”! I’m glad to report that the “configure it,
forget about it” ease of use remains in the new release, and if anything, is easier to
use." - Bill Bradford, SunHelp. For the full review, please visit here: The SunHelp
