Free, Easy-to-Implement Download Enables
Customers to Quickly Achieve Enterprise-Class Management of
Critical Resources
In a move that disrupts the rapidly growing worldwide IT
management market for emerging enterprises and
departmental/line-of-business customers, CA Technologies
(NASDAQ:CA) today announced the availability of CA Nimsoft Monitor
Snap—a free, feature-rich version of its acclaimed CA Nimsoft
Monitor solution.
CA Nimsoft Monitor Snap enables resource-constrained customers
to quickly achieve enterprise-class visibility into the health of
the diverse IT resources that support delivery of their
business-critical IT services. Unlike existing freeware, freemiums,
time-limited trials, open-source tools or mid-market commercial
products, CA Nimsoft Monitor Snap:
- Can be up and running in as little as
an hour, rather than requiring extensive setup and
configuration
- Provides robust performance and
availability monitoring capabilities for network resources,
physical and virtual servers, storage, databases and more in a
single, fully-integrated solution—in marked contrast to other
vendor offerings that require multiple products with varying levels
of integration
- Is free for up to 30 monitored devices
each with unlimited monitors—not a limited time-trial
"Until today, under-resourced customers faced an unacceptable
choice between non-integrated 'point' monitoring tools, technically
challenging open-source code, and conventional enterprise-class
technology that cost too much and took too long to implement,” said
John Smith, General Manager, Infrastructure Management, CA
Technologies. “With CA Nimsoft Monitor Snap, these customers
finally have a solution that genuinely meets their specific
needs."
CA Nimsoft Monitor Snap addresses the needs of emerging
enterprises—which lack the resources of their large corporate
counterparts, but are no less dependent on the health of their IT
environments. It also gives large enterprise IT organizations and
departmental IT service teams the unique opportunity to adopt
next-generation management technology without cost or unnecessary
risk—allowing them to more aggressively drive down operational
costs and better safeguard service delivery as their IT
environments become increasingly dynamic.
CA Nimsoft Monitor Snap provides:
- Dashboards, alarms and guided workflows
to help users quickly pinpoint and resolve issues
- Built-in “tips and tricks” and best
practices that flatten users’ learning curves and speed
time-to-value
“Historically, there has been a fairly significant disconnect
between the low appetite of emerging enterprises for management
overhead and the high cost/complexity of the tools they required to
adequately safeguard their critical IT services,” said Jim Frey,
Vice President, Research, EMA. “CA Technologies is clearly
attempting to address this market disconnect with both CA Nimsoft
Monitor and its new introductory ‘Snap’ version.”
Reaction from beta testers of CA Nimsoft Monitor Snap has been
positive.
“We evaluated SolarWinds and Spiceworks, but found CA Nimsoft
Monitor Snap to be the fastest and easiest to download, install and
configure,” said Deke Rhinehart, IT Director/Director Digital Media
at The Zone Corporation. “That zero-headache implementation is of
major value to a time-strapped IT department like ours.”
“CA Nimsoft Monitor Snap offers the perfect combination of rich
functionality and extreme ease of deployment,” said Dawn Banks, IT
Support Lead at College America. “It’s perfect for someone like me
who has front-line responsibility for safeguarding IT service
levels in a branch location.”
"CA Nimsoft Monitor Snap was quick to set up and even easier to
use," said Miles Freedman, Director of IT at Lattice Engines. "Its
significant usability and manageability advantages can help to
improve our overall operational efficiency."
The initial release of CA Nimsoft Monitor Snap supports English,
Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese. It
is built on the same code base as CA Nimsoft Monitor release 7. CA
Technologies plans to synchronize future releases of both products,
which will continue to retain the same code base.
CA Technologies has created a community support site, CA Snap
Central, that is open to everyone, including CA Nimsoft Monitor
Snap customers. The site includes a community discussion board,
free documentation, a knowledge base, instructional videos and a
forum for sharing ideas for future releases.
A free download of CA Nimsoft Monitor Snap is available here.
The product is also available from CA Technologies partners.
