Network Monitoring for Technology Companies

From software to hardware and everything in between, technology companies are becoming increasingly reliant on their IT networks. As business transactions grow increasingly digital, giving users and customers 24/7 access to products and services is no longer an option—it is an expectation.

IT teams around the world face pressure to eliminate downtime, optimize network performance, and meet SLAs with no room for error, even as their budgets get tighter and their networks grow more complex. 

As the technology space becomes more and more competitive, you can't grow or scale your business without a healthy network infrastructure. To support fast, flawless network availability, companies need reliable network monitoring solutions. By using software to map and monitor the network, IT can keep critical devices and systems up and running, improve efficiency, and plan for future growth.

When users call to complain about network issues, what does your IT team do first? Unfortunately, many companies who are in the business of making people’s lives easier through technology are suffering from old, outdated ways of network management that are hurting their network performance. Manual Visio or Excel network diagrams, poor response time to IT issues, and a lack of data about network health are all indicators that it’s time for a change.

Network visibility is the key to solving IT issues. When you can see a device’s current status, dig into historic metrics, and understand how devices are connected, problem resolution can happen in minutes—instead of hours or days. Network monitoring software gives you the visibility you need to quickly, accurately find and fix network issues.
