WatchTower® monitors infrastructure availability and performance across a wide range of hardware, operating systems and any IP-enabled device from servers, storage, and computers to edge devices including point-of-sale systems, wireless barcode scanners, IP surveillance cameras and environmental HVAC sensors.

Beyond proactive monitoring, WatchTower® is developed to give you the real-time information you need to verify infrastructure operations, identify and resolve problems and minimize the amount of time system administrators spend configuring and maintaining their monitoring solution. The Automation Stack automates previously manual tasks including node discovery, OS fingerprinting, services polling, asset identification and monitoring. Pre-built category templates incorporate monitoring best practices for thresholds, threshold violation counts and re-arm levels.

With WatchTower you can automatically and proactively monitor servers and network equipment in your data centers to facilities edge devices that track temperature and power. WatchTower supports all major operating systems and server platforms monitoring not only physical server characteristics such as storage, memory and CPU, but also operating system behavior such as swapping, user activity and uptime. Alerting can be done via email, pager, SMS or text message.

Integrated application monitoring enables you to monitor Exchange, Citrix and most any other application on your network to gauge the reliability and latency of key business processes and systems. Because WatchTower includes a role-based portal engine, you can rapidly integrate with existing tools such as ticket tracking, service desks, asset management and other monitoring or management tools. And, if you are looking for a federated CMDB, WatchTower is designed to work as a citizen CMDB to provide performance, event, SLA and asset information.
