WatchTower provides comprehensive monitoring solution for today’s complex, ever changing IT infrastructure. From datacentres and networks to remote facilities WatchTower provides a “single pane of glass” into the performance and availability of your heterogeneous IT infrastructure. Unlike traditional network and systems monitoring (NSM) software that was built for relatively static groups of servers and networking equipment, WatchTower is fundamentally automated to drastically reduce manual activities and provide rapid time to value and a low TCO

The manual nature of traditional NSM offerings are why a 2007 Network Computing Reader poll indicated that 70% of NSM deployments are never finished . While this type of manual approach to configuration was acceptable in datacentres that remained relatively static over time, today’s modern datacentres and networks are constantly evolving and adapting to meet the needs of the business.

WatchTower bridges the silos that exist within many IT organisations to provide overall IT infrastructure performance and availability visibility - and end the finger pointing. To do this WatchTower uses industry standards including SNMP (simple network monitoring protocol), IP/FIX and IPMI. XuiS will not replace the management tools each department has in place to resolve problems, change configurations and perform maintenance – those are still essential but don't provide the holistic view WatchTower does
