Why do I need operations management tools?

SharePoint is a complex platform with many moving parts. Most enterprise organizations have several farms comprised of numerous servers assigned to various roles. Manually keeping tabs on all the services, applications and functional components across multiple machines is an impossible task – many environments limp along in a sub-optimal state because administrators are overwhelmed by the sheer amount of information required to keep everything running smoothly. Infrastructure management tools provide critical information regarding server-level components, such as storage space, memory consumption, processor utilization and operating system errors but they have zero visibility into the SharePoint application stack. They often provide a false sense of security because they cannot properly measure or interpret SharePoint event streams. To really find out what is going in your environment, you need tools designed specifically for SharePoint, that can make sense of the massive amounts of operational data generated by the system and translate it into actionable metrics in real-time. Only then will you have the data you need to take control of the entire SharePoint ecosystem and ensure operational stability.

What can better management tools do for my business?

An enterprise SharePoint environment represents a significant capital and operational investment. When implemented properly, it also results in a fundamental shift in the way work gets done, information is disseminated and knowledge is leveraged. When service is interrupted, or features become unavailable, it can have a significant impact on the bottom line. With so much on the line, it is imperative that SharePoint be managed as effectively and efficiently as possible. Optimizing uptime and ensuring consistent service delivery keeps user productivity at its highest level and ensures that your organization is getting the most out of its SharePoint investments.
