Ipswitch has released WhatsUp Gold Version 16.1 (v16.1) featuring WhatsUp Application Performance Monitor.

With Application Performance Monitor, IT departments can oversee the performance of applications on their network from a single, unified, customizable dashboard, allowing them to quickly and efficiently diagnose and fix complex performance problems and avoid costly service interruptions.

The easy-to-use Application Performance Monitor provides the comprehensive insight and customizable, automated actions IT needs to assess the impact, isolate the root cause and restore performance levels to meet business user expectations.

IT can quickly identify root causes of application performance problems across network, server or multi-tier application or component dependencies, and gain insight to improve IT service performance with real-time and historical reporting and analysis.

Application Performance Monitor also provides proactive alerts and can execute custom actions to automatically repair potential problems before applications fail to ensure continuous service using limited IT resources.

“All applications are dependent on other applications, such as web servers and databases,” comments Ronnie Ray, Ipswitch Vice President of Product Management. “With Application Performance Monitor, IT can monitor an application along with the health of the entire IT service that supports that application, providing a more global view in a real-world deployment.”

Application Performance Monitor also eliminates ‘alert overload’ by allowing IT to distinguish critical and non-critical application components. “Not everything you report on is critical to application performance,” comments Ray. “If one component has issues, IT typically need not be alerted, but if a combination of components develops problems, IT will get an alert. This assessment of issue importance helps prioritize what matters to the business and minimizes ‘false positive’ readings.”

Application Performance Monitor offers an intuitive and easy-to-use application profile builder, which is important because Ipswitch research has shown that monitoring proprietary applications is a top IT priority. With Application Performance Monitor, IT can quickly develop profiles for these proprietary applications and start monitoring the most important applications – and their entire IT service environment - right away.

Ennio Carboni, President and General Manager of Ipswitch's Network Management Division says: “WhatsUp Gold and WhatsUp Application Performance Monitor helps IT organizations deliver the reliable service that users demand. With Application Performance Monitor, IT can improve visibility and control ever-increasing complexity by consolidating network, systems and application monitoring to drive rapid problem identification and resolution.”
