Network Monitoring

Network monitoring has the ability to deliver an overview view of your network infrastructure. It gives the business more control and planning capabilities because they always know the status of their network infrastructure.

Global Enterprise Monitoring (GEM) , developed by Quantix, is an all encompassing network monitoring solution designed to provide visibility of thousands of devices within your business network architecture. A 100% network visibility is critical in today’s network driven enterprise; this is why GEM is a distributed network environment that can manage NOCs, branch offices and datacenters – based on your organisations requirements.

The ease at which GEM can be deployed within an organisation is excellent. The client does not need to install any software or hardware at their end, and gains access to live dashboards which visually illustrate the status of their current network infrastructure with additional alert monitoring via SMS, Email or phone 24x7.

By implementing the GEM Network monitoring solution, businesses can benefit from increased productivity, better planning resources and 100% network visibility. Overall giving businesses the tools and intelligence to make sound IT network decisions.

Additional features include:

• Drag-and-drop solution configuration and deployment
• Network path definition and link failure root cause analysis

Business Continuity Services

Business continuity plans are often seen as insurance policies that businesses should take out in case of unexpected events which can lead to severe business downtime. The general consensus is that Business Continuity plans do not provide any return on investment until a disaster or unexpected event occurs, so many businesses decide not to implement a business continuity plan. This way of thinking can lead to the loss of significant revenue and endure very high resurrection costs which in this current financial climate could difficult be to cover.

Quantix, a leading IT managed service provider has developed a groundbreaking disaster recovery service which will change the perception on R.O.I for many businesses. This can be achieved as the Quantix solution is designed and developed to offer customers scalability and extended to enhancing in-house operational functionality as well as acting as their disaster recovery service.

A recent study by the chartered management institute showed that although 76% of managers in 2008 thought that Business continuity plans were both ‘important’ or ‘very important’, the actual number of businesses who have an active business continuity plan is much lower. Interestingly, only 39% of business continuity plans in place actually cover IT disasters. This number is far too low compared to the fact that loss of IT will have the most significant impact on revenue and costs for a business.

Quantix’s disaster recovery service is fully managed by a team of more than 20 accredited engineers on a 24/7 basis. Having over 250 years experience and partnering some of the world’s leading technology vendors. RapidRecovery is one of the most innovative and advanced solutions on the market today.
