Managing an entire IT infrastructure and ensuring the data on every workstation is protected can quickly become a challenge for system administrators and CIOs. Between mobile workstations, remote sites and multiple customers, checking that every machine is properly backed up is time-consuming and complex.
What backup monitoring means for CIOs and IT service providers
Every system administrator knows it: making sure each workstation's backup is up to date, anticipating incidents and keeping storage volumes under control is a daily task that can quickly overwhelm IT teams.
For CIOs:
- Ensure that all of the company's workstations, including mobile ones, have recent and reliable backups
- Immediately identify workstations with errors or incomplete backups
- Prevent service interruptions by detecting incidents before they affect the business
For IT service providers:
- Easily monitor all customer accounts from a single dashboard
- Keep track of the backup volumes allocated to and used by each customer
- Track backup compliance against contracts.
