Network World Names Xangati as One of 10 IT Management Software Companies to Watch

Business Wire, Sept 17, 2007

CUPERTINO, Calif. -- Xangati, the provider of the industry's first rapid problem identification (RPI) appliances for enterprise networks, announced today that Network World has named the company as one of 10 IT management software companies to watch. The magazine said the companies in its annual list "challenge the old guard" and "stand out for their approach to monitoring and controlling performance, health, connectivity and configuration across devices, systems and applications."

Network World noted that Xangati's rapid problem identification (RPI) technology pinpoints the source of problems across an enterprise by using flow information to discover all of an enterprise's endpoints and the applications running on them. The Xangati solution profiles the endpoints--such as desktops, servers, storage devices, VoIP phones, and PDAs, baselines normal behavior, and alerts staff when anomalous events occur. Network World also quoted Xangati customer Michael Gruen, IT project manager for Bernalillo County in Albuquerque, New Mexico, as saying, "Xangati helps us stop the finger pointing between the network and server team about where issues are happening." Gruen also appreciates Xangati's appealing price point and that fact that he did not have to install anything on clients.

"Network World is one of the most influential publications in the industry, so being named as a top company to watch is a significant honor," said Alan Robin, CEO of Xangati. "Clearly, the editors recognize that traditional network management solutions are not much help in identifying the true source of application and network issues--and that Xangati's RPI solution drives users to quickly pinpoint problems and solve them."

Xangati's RPI solution shrinks the time between the genesis of a problem on an enterprise network and the identification of its source through the precision profiling of every endpoint and application. Traditional silo-specific solutions require IT personnel to spend several hours or even weeks searching for the core problem. The Xangati solution often identifies the problem before end users are even aware that a problem exists.
