Wasted Time:



Every IT Manager's Secret Problem



There is a problem out there in IT-Land that is seldom spoken of-wasted time. Until recently there have been no real solutions to liberate IT managers from being stuck at work monitoring these processes. All available solutions have been software-based and therefore inherently restrictive.



Found Time:



All-in-One Integrated Monitoring from the Cloud





In 2005 a handful of IT managers at Lycos/Europe had had enough of late nights stuck in some poorly lit back room waiting for monitoring processes to finish.



They wanted a life and they sensed other IT managers did too.

They soon realized that at the heart of this problem of wasted time was an outdated means of monitoring systems and networks. The existing tools all software-based inherently required someone to be physically present on-site. Sensing the potential of what was then the emerging Cloud this small band of crusaders launched out on a new mission: to save IT managers all over the globe massive amounts of time. And so Monitis was born.



From day one Monitis transformed the market by being the first monitoring

company to fully integrate systems network and website monitoring into an

all-in-one comprehensive suite of tools that is available entirely from the

Cloud. Monitis has a depth of enterprise functionality that meets or exceeds any of its software-based competition. But unlike the competition because Monitis is 100% Cloud-based IT managers are now free to monitor anything from anywhere and are no longer stuck in the office.



Turning the Industry on It's Head:





The Monitis Difference first of all Monitis is integrated - you don't need to worry about how your tools play with others because Monitis is built to house as much or as little as you need. Monitis' fully customizable suites of tools includes:



External Services Monitoring Tools - we've packed everything



imaginable into a tool kit for monitoring websites fileservers mail servers

VoIP and databases from the end-user's point of view.Server Monitoring Tools - our complete set of tools monitors all aspects of your CPU memory processes and storage and we do it on Linux Windows FreeBSD and Solaris.



Network Monitoring Tools - a comprehensive suite of SNMP ping http ssh and discovery tools.

Transaction Monitoring Tools - a scenario-based suite of tools able to track multi-step applications via a real web browsers (e.g IE or Firefox). Behavioral scripts (or paths) are created to simulate an action or path that a customer or end-user would take on a site and insure that ecommerce sites do what they are meant to do - make money.



Cloud Monitoring Tools - Need to monitor instances automation usages or need third party verification of your SLA with Amazon (EC2 S3) Rackspace GoGrid any other Cloud provider? Our suite of Cloud monitoring tools is able to handle your full range of needs.



Web-Traffic Monitoring Tools - need in-depth insight into where your visitors are coming from where they are going to and how they got there? We've got what you need to understand your Web properties.



Application Monitoring Tools -we enable monitoring of any Java-based service with JMX hooks but to do so from the Cloud. This means that users in addition monitoring troubleshooting diagnosing root causes and pro-actively planning inside a production Java (also JRuby) application deployed in a cloud or in a datacenter are free to monitor these processes from anywhere at any time.



Second Monitis operates on a SaaS subscription model so there is no big upfront expense. For a very small monthly fee Monitis is yours to use. There is no contract and you can cancel hassle-free at any time no CAPEX no need for 6-month budgetary approval processes no depreciation to calculate.

Third since Monitis operates from the Cloud the only thing that ever needs to be installed is a teeny tiny agent that sits behind your firewallso you can be up and running on Monitis in a matter of minutes.

Fourth with Monitis there are no updates to install. While we probably have the fastest innovation schedule in the business we manage all updates on our servers in the Cloud.



Finally because you don't need to buy servers for your monitoring using Monitis has significant positive impact on the environment. With all the emphasis being placed on low-carbon approaches to IT Monitis'Cloud-based SaaS approach is truly an idea that is right for our times.
