"Our experience shows that most organizations still use a costly, time-consuming manual process for calculating and reporting against service level agreements," said Gary Read, President of Nimsoft. "With this latest release of NimBUS, we aim to reach every customer example of service level paradigm, and to rapidly automate its monitoring and reporting process while dramatically slashing the inherent complexity and cost associated with it."
Unlike Any Other SLA Management Offering Building on the rising NimBUS market momentum, Nimsoft today announced the following enhancements in Version 3.2:
- Monitoring of Multi-tiered Service Level Agreements: New grouped/tiered SLA capabilities provide cascading service level monitoring for maximum applications performance. SLAs can now be grouped by branch office, customer, business unit, geography, service, technology, and application, and rolled up to higher level agreements.
- Wizard-based Approach for SLA Creation and Definition: New intuitive wizards facilitate and accelerate SLA creation and definition. Users can now take advantage of this wizard-based approach to rapidly create thousands of customer-based service levels in minutes.
- Enhanced Compliance Calculation Engine: New complex compliance calculation formulas (including interval, weight, sequential, median, average, best, worst, and, or) provide for practically any customer-tailored SLA compliance requirements.
- Data Integration with 3rd Party Products: New ability to accept data from multiple and disconnected third party products, including help desk products, other monitoring tools or any other application, and combine it all into Service Level or Operational Level Agreements.
"At IBBS, we are responsible for monitoring hundreds of service level agreements for our broadband/cable customers," said Cedric Brown, Vice President of Operations at IBBS. "In the past, we have struggled with traditional management tools and had to supplement them with hours and days of manual effort, pulling together Excel-based reports. Now with Nimbus, we can put in place new customer SLAs in minutes, reducing our SLA administration down to virtually zero".
