A complete IT management approach
The network underpins all IT services
Properly performing network infrastructure devices are critical to good
service delivery
Proactive avoidance of performance degradation
Virtualized systems - traditional dividing lines between server/network are
blurred
Enabling IT to rise above traditional silos of responsibility
Rapid problem resolution

Together, Entuity and TrueSight Operations Management
Eliminate costly
duplication of effort in
managing separate data
silos, “all-hands-on-deck”
war room scenarios and
finger pointing.
Enable faster MTTR and a
longer MTBF through
proactive problem
resolution and deep
network visibility.
Increase automation,
allowing IT organizations
to focus on projects that
are important for the
business.

Mobile access via a tablet
“Tablets are finding increasing favor as a mobile working
endpoint for IT pros of all stripes, including network
engineers and operators. Most management tools support
these platforms by simply making existing GUIs
compatible/viewable. But to do it right requires significant
redesign, taking advantage of tablet navigation techniques
such as swipe and pinch, and optimizing tasks and views
that require mobility support. Entuity has taken this
approach and the result is, quite arguably, the first true
tablet UI for an enterprise-class network management
solution.”
