Premier Online Graduate School Minimizes Network Downtime with OpManager Network Monitoring Software
Pleasanton, California, September 7, 2005
AdventNet, Inc., the leading network management software vendor,
announced today that Universitas 21 Global, a Singapore based premier
online Graduate School, uses ManageEngine OpManager for proactive
monitoring of its network infrastructure. Details of how OpManager
helped this organization are featured in a recently published case
study at www.opmanager.com.
E-learning helps individuals cut through global boundaries and
access world-class education right from their desks and at their
own time and pace. Universitas 21 Global is a premier online graduate
school that offers globally recognized graduate programs for working
professionals and busy executives. For Universitas 21 Global to
offer a rich online experience to their students, presently from
more than 45 countries, they wanted a network that is reliable to
the maximum extent possible.
"Much of our primary business activities happen through the
web including student registration, orientation, counseling, and
online classes. We are in the business of higher education for busy
executives who travel around the world, and hence our uptime is
extremely important to us. With students from various time zones
across 45 countries accessing our services, we simply cannot afford
any unscheduled downtimes as it would surely affect someone in some
part of the world," said Mr. Paul Chan, IT Manager at Universitas
21 Global.
Universitas 21 Global chose OpManager after a rigorous evaluation
process. "We have hundreds of servers hosted in two state-of-the-art
data centers with critical applications running on them. They need
to be monitored for CPU, memory utilization, and general failure
if any. OpManager automatically discovers all these devices, and
consolidates everything we need to know about the health of our
data centers in one single dashboard. The GUI is easy to navigate
and understand. I am glad to say that OpManager is one of the best
operations monitoring software that I have used, relative to the
competitive price it has tagged itself with," added Mr. Chan
"OpManager represents a new breed of Enterprise Management
solutions from ManageEngine. With exciting new offerings covering
the entire IT spectrum from Desktop to the WAN, ManageEngine clearly
offers a superior value proposition to IT managers around the world,"
said Girish Mathrubootham, Product Manager - ManageEngine Enterprise
Solutions, AdventNet Inc.
