AppManager ensures that enterprises are better able to meet the ever-increasing demands of dynamic business services, virtualized environments and unified communications while reducing the overall cost of technology ownership.

AppManager provides enterprises with the ability to:

• Gain Greater Control over the IT Environment: AppManager features such as task automation, performance monitoring, policy exception management and secure delegation, help establish a solid systems management foundation to further align IT with enterprise business objectives.
• Improve IT Productivity and Visibility: Event impact assessment, response prioritization and corrective actions allow for faster event resolution while end-to-end service visibility vastly reduces and pre-empts business service downtime.
