Ipswitch WhatsUp network management products offer vital capabilities that enable organisations of all sizes to maximise network and application availability and performance. WhatsUp Gold Premium Edition and WhatsUp Gold Standard Edition provide around the clock monitoring of applications, servers, devices, services and network resources. The Distributed version of WhatsUp Gold extend the reach to allow localised monitoring of remote site, with the MSP enabling this to be taken to a service provision level.

 

No matter how large or how small the organisation, the network is absolutely essential to the company’s operations and survival. In many cases, especially among small and midsized businesses (SMBs), the network is the business. After all, the network enables collaboration, communication, and commerce – everything that helps an organisation to run and grow.

 

For that reason, network downtime is deadly. Yet with the complexity of today’s networks, things are bound to go wrong. Servers crash, routers fail, disk utilisation rates reach dangerous thresholds, security breaches occur, and regulations are violated. That’s why continuous monitoring of the network is such an important network management function. Ipswitch WhatsUp Gold enables you to monitor network performance proactively in real time, so you can identify problems before they become emergencies – and take remedial action in time to prevent loss of availability and ensure business continuity.
