What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The ability to proactively monitor and manage our infrastructure is key to our success. Sam has allowed us to utilize the tool to gain this advantage. Not only are we able to solve our issue of being reactive but we'd also able to use the analytics from their reports to gain better insight on the performance of our infrastructure and achieve improved capacity planning and automation of certain processes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do a proper evaluation before implementing the tool, as with any other solution you might consider. Analyze there pros and cons to see if it fits in line with your specifications and meet your expectations in an remote monitoring and management tool.
