Business Wire, March 22, 2005

PLEASANTON, Calif. -- AdventNet, Inc., the leading provider of affordable network and systems management software for enterprises, equipment vendors and service providers, today announced the release of ManageEngine Applications Manager 6 GA. Applications Manager is a web-based application monitoring tool that monitors application servers, databases, systems, services, and websites in a complex IT infrastructure. Applications Manager provides a holistic view of the IT infrastructure, detecting problems before they affect end users. It notifies administrators of impending trouble and performs root cause analysis of application and server problems. Additionally, it helps in trend analysis through performance graphs and reports.

A few minutes of application downtime can have an adverse effect on a business, including decreased productivity and a significant loss of revenues. In a typical IT Infrastructure, it is essential to install a monitoring tool which keeps business applications and IT resources up and running 24x7. Applications Manager detects frequent downtimes and delayed response times in application servers, databases, systems, services, websites, and other applications in a business environment. The tool instantly notifies administrators of impending trouble through e-mail, SMS, and Traps. It recommends corrective actions for quick and proactive problem resolution. It supports intuitive management reports and graphs, which help in long-term capacity planning and trending.

"It was an easy decision to select Applications Manager, once we saw it monitoring our internal IT resources effectively. It helps us keep our applications up and running smoothly and quickly resolves IT glitches. It is a cost-effective, easy-to-use tool that performed superbly for us, and we are very happy with the results now!" said Alex Leal Villagra, Network Administrator of MetLife Chile.

"Enterprises depend on IT resources to run their business processes efficiently. A reliable infrastructure is crucial for customer service, controlling costs and maximizing productivity. Hence, it becomes essential for an enterprise to properly manage its IT infrastructure and applications. Applications Manager 6 is a 'value for money' solution, to manage your open source and commercial web applications, application servers, databases, systems and services through an integrated, business-centric web interface," said Hyther Nizam, Product Manager at AdventNet.
