		Related Products PathSolutions TotalView PathSolutions TotalView network monitoring and troubleshooting software bridges the gap between NETWORK MONITORING and TROUBLESHOOTING RESOLUTION telling you WHEN, WHERE and WHY network errors occur. PathSolutions TotalView continuously monitors and tracks the performance of every device and every link in your entire network, going deeper than other solutions by collecting error counters, performance data, configuration information and connectedness. A built-in heuristics engine analyzes all of this information to produce plain-English answers to problems. This means that complex problems can be solved by junior level engineers leaving the senior level engineers to work on more strategic level projects. The core product includes everything needed to run a perfectly healthy network: Configuration management, server monitoring, cloud service monitoring, IPAM, NetFlow, path mapping, and diagramming. Get Total Network Visibility on your network and solve more problems faster. 43 Ratings Visit Website Blumira Empower Your Current Team to Achieve Enterprise-Level Security An all-in-one solution with SIEM, endpoint visibility, 24/7 monitoring, and automated response to reduce complexity, increase visibility and speed up time to respond.

It's highly scalable and delivers fast real-time performance data from a minimal server footprint. Statseeker can be up and running within minutes, and discovering your entire network in less than an hour, without any significant effect on your bandwidth availability. Statseeker monitors networks of any size, polling up to one million interfaces every 60 seconds, collecting network data such as SNMP, ping, NetFlow (sFlow and J-Flow), syslog and trap messages and API data, as well as SDN configuration and health metrics. Your network performance data is never averaged or rolled up. This removes the guesswork in identifying over- and underutilized infrastructure, conducting root cause analysis, or capacity planning. Statseeker's out-of-the-box dashboards and reports give you the contextual data needed to proactively monitor your network and fix problems before users are aware. 35 Ratings Visit Website Overmonitor Overmonitor is a cloud-based infrastructure, website, and endpoint monitoring platform built for fast setup without enterprise complexity. Monitor websites, APIs, servers, processes, Windows services, event logs, performance counters, SNMP data, uptime, response time, DNS, SSL certificates, internal endpoints, and network health from one dashboard. The lightweight 2.1 MB agent runs as an idle process, requires no inbound firewall exceptions or open ports, and sends a secure heartbeat every minute. Configure monitoring quickly through the web interface and target checks by city-level geography. Maintenance windows suppress expected noise, while configurable alerts, push notifications, and audible dashboards keep the right people informed. Multi-location endpoint checks validate incidents, reduce false alarms, expose regional problems, and reveal how availability and responsiveness differ across target markets. Distributed Monitors expand Overmonitor’s network by allowing eligible servers to opt in and check up to 10 external endpoints. Checks add negligible data to the existing heartbeat, require no extra configuration or firewall changes, execute no remote web scripts, and store no monitored data on the server. If a participating server or network becomes unavailable, its checks are automatically reassigned. Participation also earns prorated invoice credits. Trend Analysis turns historical infrastructure metrics into proactive capacity planning. Choose from thousands of performance counters, including CPU utilization, available memory, and disk space, then assign minimum and maximum thresholds. Once enough data has been collected, Overmonitor applies linear regression to estimate when a metric may cross its limits. A configurable planning horizon controls when responsible team members are alerted, helping you rebalance workloads, tune resources, or scale capacity before performance becomes an outage or unbudgeted emergency. Trend Analysis is included with every server metric at no additional charge. Overmonitor also includes process rollups, embeddable performance graphs, endpoint health visibility, flexible retention, multiple users with roles, and à la carte pricing so you pay only for the monitoring you need. Detect outages, correlate website symptoms with server health, analyze performance, track availability, and improve end-user experience before small issues become downtime. 8 Ratings Visit Website JAMS Scheduler JAMS is an automation orchestration and job scheduling solution that runs, monitors, and manages critical IT processes from a single console, from simple batch jobs to complex, cross-platform workflows. JAMS automates jobs across Windows, Linux, UNIX, IBM i, z/OS, and OpenVMS, with native integrations for the databases, BI tools, and ERP systems already running your business, including SQL Server and SAP. Jobs run on any schedule or trigger off other events, and dependency management keeps multi-step workflows in the right order. Every job is centrally monitored, with notifications on success or failure and an audit trail of every execution. Built-in conversion tools migrate existing jobs from Windows Task Scheduler, SQL Agent, or Cron without rebuilding them, and JAMS replaces homegrown, single-platform scripts with one centrally managed system. JAMS includes two AI capabilities at no additional cost. JAX is an AI agent built into the JAMS Web Client. Ask it a question in plain language, and it finds a job, troubleshoots a failure, or looks up how to do something, grounded in JAMS documentation, not general AI guesswork. It acts only when asked, and every change waits for your approval. JAMS MCP brings JAMS into the AI coding tools teams already use, including Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, and Claude Desktop. Both run inside the customer's network with the signed-in user's permissions and no elevated AI account, and every action, AI-driven or not, lands in the same audit trail as everything else in JAMS. For teams managing thousands of jobs across SQL Server, ADF, Airflow, SAP, JDE, and Banner, this cuts tribal knowledge and middle-of-the-night troubleshooting. Knowledge that once lived in one person's head becomes something any team member can ask about directly. The AI lives in the product, not in the support queue. Support is staffed by humans JAMS will never outsource, based in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia. New tickets go to long-tenured engineers, and every JAMS customer has the CEO's cell phone number. JAMS' mission is to reduce the operational burden of critical automation, so teams spend more time on the work automation was meant to free them for. 285 Ratings Visit Website
