Easy Application Transaction Monitoring

Application Transaction Monitoring: End-User Experience
Why is measuring and monitoring service levels & application health so important? Most tools are designed to monitor infrastructure components and devices. In fact, 74% of all application problems are reported to the IT department by the end-users (through the Service Desk). Clearly, the IT department needs a solution that can proactively see these problems and help solve them before the end-user is impacted.
- Easily Monitor & Measure End-User Experience: Track and alert on application and services health, notifying you before problems impact the end-user. The result is fewer Service Desk calls, less downtime, and the earned reputation of a more proactive IT department.
- See Across Platforms & Geographies: Compare application performance across technology platforms and different geographies.
- Know Before it's Too Late: Proactively alert with early detection to find problems before end-users call the Service Desk.
- Easy to Use: Immediate results in 15 minutes or less. Integrates with other tools and can be deployed to over 100 servers per day.

Application Transaction Monitoring Needs

Better Services Heath

Proactive Alerting

Performance Across Locations

Analyze User Steps

Prove IT Success

Optimize App. Delivery
The Problems:
The Solutions:
No End User-User Perspective: There is no clear way to see the end-user perspective from the application side. We can't clearly see or monitor the path that the end-users take to complete tasks.
Monitor Interactions: Ensure your monitoring tool can
quickly create granular syntactic transactions that relect the true end-user application interactions.
The Problems:
The Solutions:
No Service Health:
It can be tough to see how your business units' applications are performing if you can't measure the services health from the end-users point of view.
See Service Health Clearly: Consider a solution
that can monitor, measure and report on the customer's applications and services health from the End-user view.
The Problems:
The Solutions:
No Early Detection:
It's hard to keep service health and application performance healthy if you have no early detection system that highlights potential issues before they impact the end-users. This leads to constant firefighting and reactive IT practices. Clearly not a way to build a proactive IT department.
Proactive Alerting: Proactively alert when application performance is trending down with the early detection of issues through small response time variations. Get the heads up you need in time to fix potential problems.
The Problems:
The Solutions:
No Visiblity Across Locations: IT departments need to see how their services and applications are performing across geographies. Is the CRM login as fast as it should in New York. How about London and Tokyo?
See the Geography Issues: Compare the service and applicaiton performance between different locations. Drill down to see where and how the bottlenecks are affecting locations and quickly be enabled to solve the problems.
The Problems:
The Solutions:
What is the User Doing? You're
sick not seeing or being able to monitor the steps that end-users consistently take when they interact with key applications. That makes it very tough to find where the problems are happeneing and to fix them quickly.
See Each User Step: Analyze each user step within an application transaction to quickly isolate performance issues. Then drill down to view the associated infrastructure components and see how they're affecting the application performance. Then diagnose and repair.
The Problems:
The Solutions:
I can't Prove IT is Succeeding!
We are solving problems and trying to proactively manage the IT department and its initiatives. However, it's hard to prove IT's success level to the business units in a way they can understand. We need IT dashboards and reports to show the business units that IT is ensuring applications and services are running quickly and smoothly. IT helps the organization to be successful, and we want to prove that.
Proof for the Business Units: IT Dashboards and reports on application availability over time, SLA reporting and graphs make it easy to understand for the business units. Get the kudos that you and the IT department deserve.
The Problems:
The Solutions:
Can't see the Applications that Support Delivery: You need an end-to-end view of the application delivery to ensure that applications and services are performing as intended. Without a picture of the supporting infrastructure for the application, detection and repair can be a nightmare.
See the Supporting Infrastructure: Identify and optimize the overall infrastructure that supports the application delivery. Quickly see infrastructure bottlenecks before they hit the end-users and find potential problems and fix them in minutes, not hours.

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." -

run, don.t bother looking at any alternatives: buy this one." - David Cartwright, TechWorld.

review of up.time
"up.time is a Set it and Forget it Monitoring Tool" says SunHelp.
"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
