It's not like it used to be back in the day! Before CI/CD, we were building on-premises, service-oriented products following system style architecture and we were able to map out the build system and end-to-end process in a PowerPoint or Visio document. Although time-consuming and inefficient, it was relatively straightforward and the build pipeline was unlikely to change drastically. But that's no longer the case.

We know there are a couple of dashboard solutions for which integration with SCOM can or could be created. However none of them integrates better and more easily than SquaredUp Dashboard Server for SCOM. It integrates with the SCOM platform out-of-the-box, leverages the SCOM object model to the fullest and is very easy to create dashboards with. For most use cases you do not even have to create dashboards, as the product comes with many out-of-the-box community dashboard packs.

Project managing global software projects is always a challenge, contending with multiple time zones, tools, and teams. In these environments, the day-to-day life of a Project Manager is filled with status collections, project reporting, and little time for much else. While the detail will always matter – like team bug data, feature status, and build progress – there is a better way than collecting and reporting on all this data manually. Does this scenario sound familiar?

Applications are built and run by many people and made of many components: infrastructure, code pipelines and end users to name a few. Understanding the status of those components and teams is never straight forward. In this blog, we will be unpacking the problem faced by most organizations and taking a look at how SquaredUp can empower you and your organization with status visibility across different teams / components / services – all in one view.

I figure you’re doing okay with SquaredUp. It still works for you. Maybe you feel there are a couple of things that could be improved, but it’s not a big deal. So you’ve not upgraded yet. And frankly, because it all works fine and is still doing its job, you haven’t kept up to date on all the latest features rolled out in the SquaredUp updates. But…you’re missing out – on a lot.

SCOM has incredible powers, but it’s not always easy to find the root cause of issues fast. And you definitely don’t get one-click SCOM root cause analysis. We’ve all been there. A business-critical server goes down and you don’t know why. Let’s imagine you had a dashboard showing the health statuses of all your server groups and you notice that the United States is showing as critical.

We’re excited to announce that we’ve just released SquaredUp Dashboard Server 5.6! This Dashboard Server release covers multiple features that have been highly requested by the community.
