Paessler AG will be demonstrating a new feature for PRTG Network Monitor at Cisco Live in Las Vegas, July 10 - 14, 2016, at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center.
Paessler will be displaying its new System Information feature, which gives administrators detailed information on all devices on their network in an easy-to-view format.
PRTG Network Monitor is a comprehensive monitoring solution that is fully-featured at all licensing levels, giving administrators the power to monitor everything in their infrastructure. With the new System Information feature, a detailed rundown of any device that supports Windows or has SNMP enabled will be available through the PRTG dashboard without any need to find the individual device, saving administrators time and making it simpler to organize. From a separate tab off the main web interface, users can find device information ranging from the basics such as IP address and BIOS to seeing what hardware is connected, software installed, what user accounts are active and what processes are running, all without needing to find each individual device itself. This is an enormous time-saver for IT departments and will lead to faster problem-solving.
"With every new version and upgrade to PRTG, we strive to make life that much easier for IT administrators. From our perspective, every minute we save them is time well spent," said Andrew Cutting, Director of Channel Sales, North America, Paessler. "Cisco Live is a great opportunity for us to unveil our new System Information feature. We'll be able to demonstrate for a large audience of IT professionals the power and comprehensiveness of PRTG Network Monitor."

Many organizations assumed their infrastructure strategy was settled. It had been implemented, optimized and built into long-term plans.

For years, production operations teams have treated alert fatigue as a quality-of-life problem: something that makes on-call rotations miserable but isn't considered a direct contributor to outages. That framing doesn't capture how these systems fail, and we now have data to show why.

I was on a customer call last fall when an enterprise architect said something I haven't been able to shake. Her team had just spent four months trying to swap one AI vendor for another.

Most enterprise leaders don't expect that to be the experience ...
Ask any senior SRE or platform engineer what keeps them up at night, and the answer probably isn't the monitoring tool — it's the data feeding it. The proliferation of APM, observability, and AIOps platforms has created a telemetry sprawl problem that most teams manage reactively rather than architect proactively. Metrics are going to one platform. Traces routed somewhere else. Logs duplicated across multiple backends because nobody wants to be caught without them when something breaks. Every redundant stream costs money ...
