FireScope Unify

Unify your IT management into a single, holistic view of IT service health and performance, without the complexity or high price-tag.

Enterprise IT operations is stuck between a rock and a hard place. The business has seemingly simple requirements; keep critical applications and services running and performing well for an expanding user base with a shrinking budget. Little do the users know that the applications they rely are made up of dozens or hundreds of applications, servers, virtualized assets, network equipment, storage devices, SaaS components, public and private cloud assets and more.

To keep this all running - and running well - requires real-time intelligence of the health, performance and business-criticality of each of these assets, aligned to the critical services they deliver. Unfortunately, in the past this level of visibility required an investment of hundreds of thousands in Big-4 (BMC, IBM, HP, CA) enterprise management suites composed of dozens of products and months of effort. Fortunately, there's an easier way.

In addition to the capabilities available in its single-site cousin, FireScope Dash..., FireScope Unify includes enterprise-grade hardware, multi-site aggregation capabilities and management virtualization features to offer the easiest path to achieving a holistic view of the health and performance of your critical services and applications. Unlike Big-4 solutions, FireScope Unify is a single-product solution, reducing the complexity of deployment and management, and enabling FireScope Unify to deliver the same capabilities for a fraction of the cost of the competition. In today's economy where everyone is looking for ways to do more with less, FireScope Unify is an option you can't ignore.

"This is the youngest BSM provider in our list, founded in 2006, with probably the most modern solution due to its adoption of Web 2.0 technologies... It provides an impressive reporting and analytics portal framework for all possible IT and business user roles, and its 11 different connectivity methods collect data from virtually any networked asset."

Affordability

If you've ever purchased solutions from the Big-4 you probably still have nightmares. Dozens of products are required to solve a single problem, each requiring user licensing, server licensing, add-on modules, report packs and more. As experienced IT operators ourselves, we at FireScope chose a path of simplicity. Therefore, FireScope Unify is priced per appliance and by the number of assets you will be managing, with none of the hidden fees or nickel and diming you've come to expect from enterprise software sales.
