WhatsUpGold Distributed Edition

Scalable and Affordable Enterprise Network Management

If you are responsible for a distributed enterprise network, chances are you have lived through the pains and complexity of selecting the right network management option. Some enterprise network managers have forsaken unified management and process and tried to manage the entire infrastructure through an assortment of point solutions – typically one for each location or environment. Others have brought in the Big 4 Mega Suites and paid dearly in time, cost and effort.

If this sounds familiar, you know that neither option really gets the job done, as the information provided by the point solutions doesn’t provide a comprehensive, actionable intelligence and the total cost of ownership (TCO) of the Big 4 Mega Suite negates any real gains in management. But, if you are like hundreds of other Enterprises that made the right decision, you are ready for WhatsUp Gold.
