IT professionals spend an inordinate amount of time and money installing and maintaining system management applications. Current solutions require so much time and effort that even the largest organizations monitor only a fraction of their total IT investments. In turn, this forces the IT staff to tactically respond only to the most pressing problems. The end results are poorly performing applications, frustrated customers and an overwhelmed IT staff.
