Smart Agent closes the loop and provides complete solution
Smart Agent gives IT and business managers a reliable way to quickly and easily perform root cause analysis ad distinguish external network errors from internal capacity and infrastructure issues. Together with external scanners and Web tracking features, the agent closes the loop and provides complete solutions for entire IT monitoring from inside and outside. Such comprehensive service delivers the functionality needed for centralized and effective IT infrastructure management. Most organizations can not afford professional IT monitoring tools because of their high cost and complexity. Small companies alternatively use open source products like Nagios but they still require dedicated professional personnel and servers. Paid Monitor has changed the situation by offering a complete, easy-to-use alternative. No need for complicated setups, for dedicated personnel and dedicated servers. No uptime cost.
Comprehensive, effective and easy Monitoring service
These specific benefits of our approach:
Easy to install, configure and use. No upfront license cost, no learning curve, will be up and running in minutes. Even non-technical people can setup and gain instant benefits.
Complete solutions to monitor everything - servers, network devices, operating systems, applications from inside of firewall and outside.
Access from everywhere. Because it is a hosted web solution, management dashboards and reports are available from everywhere. You can have access to your personal dashboard from home, hotel, and Starbucks.
Using the traditional software approach users would need to learn the product, allocate at least 2 servers – one for internal monitoring and one for external monitoring, install the software, install all additional plugins, configure them, aggregate data in consolidated reports, make the views available from outside by configuring firewalls and maintain the system. The same outcome by using our SaaS (software as a service) approach will be provided within minutes .
