The Power Of Automation

CITTIO provides comprehensive monitoring solutions for today’s complex, ever changing IT infrastructure. From datacenters and networks to remote facilities CITTIO provides a “single pane of glass” into the performance and availability of your heterogeneous IT infrastructure. Unlike traditional network and systems monitoring (NSM) software that was built for relatively static groups of servers and networking equipment, CITTIO WatchTower is fundamentally automated to drastically reduce manual activities and provide rapid time to value and a low TCO.

The manual nature of traditional NSM offerings are why a 2007 Network Computing Reader poll indicated that 70% of NSM deployments are never finished (see right). While this type of manual approach to configuration was acceptable in datacenters that remained relatively static over time, today’s modern datacenters and networks are constantly evolving and adapting to meet the needs of the business.

CITTIO solutions bridge the silos that exist within many IT organizations to provide overall IT infrastructure performance and availability visibility - and end the finger pointing. To do this CITTIO uses industry standards including SNMP (simple network monitoring protocol), IP/FIX and IPMI. CITTIO will not replace the management tools each department has in place to resolve problems, change configurations and perform maintenance – those are still essential but don't provide the holistic view CITTIO does.

WatchTower is a direct response to the ongoing frustrations CITTIO’s founders experienced using traditional Network and Systems Monitoring (NSM) products which require extensive manual effort to configure every time a device is added to the network or changed. Powered by the innovative CITTIO Automation Stack™, WatchTower implements and adapts to change without the extensive manual effort required by traditional and homegrown approaches.

Only WatchTower automatically discovers and monitors existing and new devices and their related services as they are introduced to your network. Based on 100% Web access and industry standards, WatchTower leverages SNMP, IP/FIX, NetFlow, sFlow and IPMI standards to deliver proactive, automated monitoring for midsize and larger companies with distributed networks, wide ranges of devices and a preference for employees to focus on the strategic and innovative projects that drive growth instead of configuring and reconfiguring their monitoring software.

With WatchTower, you gain complete visibility to your distributed network, identify problems proactively before they result in unplanned outages, manage service levels, and ultimately reduce the amount of time and money required to manage your network.
