Configuring Email Alert Profiles

This section is common to all the editions of IT360 - Professional Edition, Enterprise Edition (Probes only) and MSP Edition (Probes only).

You can configure IT360 to send e-mails to Network Administrators, when a fault is detected in a device. You can create profiles separately for each administrator and assign them to devices individually, so that whenever the device has a fault, email can be sent to the concerned technician, depending on the nature of the fault. 

Steps to Create an Email Alert Profile
