A New Day For Intranet Service Level Monitoring

What It Does

With NetScore you don't have to guess about how much performance is degrading . You will know. Both administrators and users can be automatically notified when service levels fall below desired thresholds. NetScore Intelligent Agents are the inexpensive way to know when poor network performance might be affecting users productivity and will give you the data to prove it. NetScore Intelligent Agent historical data may also be sent to a planned companion product, NetScore Surveillance Center. There, long term data can be stored for baselining and capacity planning.

This is a typical NetScore response time graph (response time vs. time of day). It indicates the server frequently exceeds the critical threshold (red areas) as well as the marginal threshold (yellow areas). Green areas indicate response time better than thresholds.

How Is It Different?

• NetScore Intelligent Agent sends out real operations on a preset schedule to servers and hosts
• It logs the end-to-end response time of each operation performed and keeps a history file
• It generates on the fly graphics showing performance over time on standard browsers
• NetScore directly measures response time. An easy to understand number rather than statistics which users with complaints don't understand

What Are The Benefits Network Managers Get Using NetScore Intelligent Agent?

• Administrators using a browser can see response time data from any NetScore Intelligent Agent anywhere increasing the span of locations to be served
• Remote home office and travelling users will have their service levels tracked automatically and have data on demand for administrators in case of trouble
• NetScore provides other key data about the remote PC to help address trouble: memory, disk, .ini files, autoexec, config.sys, etc. (Click on View System Information in the demo for more)
• You may need fewer and less technically trained administrators to keep user performance (and productivity) up

A Few More Facts About NetScore Intelligent Agent

• Agents are now available for Windows Platforms (Unix and OS\2 soon)
• Monitoring is invisible to users (NetScore operates in the background )
• NetScore requires a standard web browser and associated IP Stack
• NetScore Surveillance Center for central control and database storage available soon
