An example of Business Process monitoring

• Sector: Private Banking

• The situation before:
   – The CIO was "blind" (outsourcing to 3 different
     providers)
   – No integrated IT/Business visibility
   – Manual controls and custom scripting

• The Benefits Obtained
   – Better communication IT/Business Units
   – Improved diagnosis time across all areas
   – Business Operations (Front and Back Office) able to
     react in time

    Magic Quadrant forIT Event Correlation and Analysis Tango04 is a new entrant to the ECA Magic Quadrant. In addition to ECA, Tango04 provides BSM and SIEM. Since BSM is a new factor contributing to the current product execution evaluation for the Magic Quadrant, this has helped improve Tango04's ability-to-execute rating, although its small customer base constrains this rating. Tango04 targets SMBs in Europe and Latin America.
