Maximise reliability and performance while reducing the risk of disaster with Proactive Monitoring.
Did you know that studies have proved that remote network
monitoring increases a company’s profitability? Why?
Because
proactive network monitoring catches network failures, security
breaches and potential problems before you lose valuable time and
money.
From servers, network equipment, printers/plotters and backup
devices, the modern network infrastructure has grown far more
complex in recent years. Without the network to connect all your
people, systems and processes doing business today looks nigh on
impossible. So, just as the importance of technology has developed so
too have the responsibilities of the roles played by network
administrators in supporting a stable network environment.
The
increasing dependence on IT systems and administration demands
mean that IT people have less time to look forward to potential
problems so systems may become more unreliable or vulnerable.
Organisations today are dependent on
their IT systems and the services they
provide, so even a small increase in
performance or reliability can have a dramatic effect on productivity and ultimately profitability. And complete
system failure does not even bear thinking about.
This service from Excitech is able to identify
weaknesses in your IT network through the
constant monitoring of its hardware
components and applications. It will issue
alerts when a fault is detected, enabling the root cause of the problem to be rapidly identified.
Excitech’s network-monitoring and alerting
appliance monitors network traffic,
hardware (switches, servers, routers, etc.), as
well as the processes and applications that
are running (e.g. MS Exchange, Backup
Exec).

Benefits of Proactive Monitoring
● Maximising your system & network
uptime
● Protection from many sources of
potential disaster and loss of data
● Maintaining your network security
● Identifying pre-failure indicators
● Remote management ensures immediate
attention to a serious problem
Network Availability
We are notified immediately when a device
has failed and can rapidly deploy a
solution.
Network Traffic
Monitoring is another way to potentially
catch unnecessary and unwanted changes
to systems.
Errors and Event Logs
All system events can be stored for up to 12
months. This enables us to match events
which could be the cause of problems.
Windows and Anti-Virus Updates
Implementing regular updates reduces the
risks of hackers and recent viruses from
affecting your system.
Drive Capacity/Availability Monitoring
This audits the overall capacity of disk
drives; looking at long-term rise in files sizes
and the increasing need for archiving or
larger drives to be installed.
CPU and Memory Monitoring
We can assess the constant rise in load that
any device or application may be
experiencing, or memory leaks and
terminal server overloads.
Backup Monitoring
We are able to monitor backups to ensure
that should there be a need to retrieve vital
information, this can be done with ease.
Alerts
The alert functionality will send messages
to our helpdesk or engineers giving
advanced warning before start of business
next day enabling the root cause of the
problem to be rapidly identified. |
