By deploying a flexible, customizable server and network monitoring solution, IT and Operations teams can reduce outages, increase service levels and move from reactive to proactive infrastructure maintenance.

Comprehensive

GroundWork Monitor provides visibility into all aspects of the IT environment including networks, servers, operating systems, applications and databases. By utilizing the thousands of Nagios® plugins available online GroundWork can monitor virtually any device, system or software component. GroundWork also supports standardized monitoring techniques such as SNMP, syslog and WMI.

Secure and Manageable

The GroundWork Monitor stack provides a complete monitoring platform, with the fine-grained user and role-based access control required for organization-wide deployments. Uniform application configuration and administration features ensure administrators can adapt quickly to changing business needs, and users gain controlled access to the views, reports and dashboards they need.

Open Platform

GroundWork Monitor is an open portal-based application that encourages tight, two-way integration with other systems such as ticketing, help-desk, CMDBs and third-party consoles. By 'playing nicely with others' GroundWork Monitor offers a cost-effective way to upgrade your core monitoring and performance management capabilities with minimal disruption to existing procedures and processes.

By tapping into the extensions and resources provided on the MonitoringForge™ and GroundWork Exchange, users can get value from their monitoring investment quickly and avoid the long-term costs associated with maintaining one-off customizations to their deployment.
