Mail Server Monitoring
"We used MOM 2000 and 2005 before ApplicationsManager.
We were not satisfied with the reports that mom produces.
AppManager gives really comprehensive reports about our systems.
We have nearly 70 servers (Microsoft and Tru64 and HPUX, HP
DL and HP Alpha servers) around including branch offices.
We are using Oracle databases. AppManager's Oracle monitor
pages are really good for our Oracle DBAs.
The most important property of AppManager is that there are
no AGENTS anymore. The notifications section is also the important
thing that we use mostly.
Online Support was a great opportunity for us. Thanks for
this real system monitoring tool."

The issue could lie in an underlying application or process."..... read full blog
