OpTier released OpTier APM 5.0, a single solution delivering real-time business transaction analytics with deep diagnostics, all within 2 clicks.
OpTier APM 5.0 is a groundbreaking technology for deep diagnostics, reporting and usability, resulting in greater visibility and productivity gains for IT and business executives.
OpTier APM 5.0 maintains business transaction context across the entire end-to-end business service and provides diagnostic and performance data across critical data sources including end-user, machine data, process flow, tier container, application code, system and device, as well as assuring critical business outcomes.
"Traditional silo-based deep diagnostic tools lack the business context that helps identify root causes of problems and prioritize business impact no matter which tier and how complex the application," said Mark Thompson, CEO at OpTier. "The focus of OpTier APM 5.0 is to solve that pain by combining a horizontal business perspective with vertical deep-dive in a single solution. This gives a cost-effective consolidation and rationalization solution to replace legacy APM tools and to optimize existing APM and monitoring investments"
