IT Eases WFH Transition, Cuts Down Agency's Bureaucracy

Though there is an entire industry devoted to telling you otherwise, most people prefer to work for large organizations. On the one hand, their appeal makes perfect sense. Big employers offer higher salaries, better benefits, and a longer employee tenure. Yet, there are some noticeable wrinkles that come with life in a large organization. Chief among them, bigger companies often exhibit a poor overall Digital Employee Experience.

Tip of the Day - Beyond Alerts

Alerts are one of the main reasons why we monitor. Having a robust Alerting Tool can ensure proactive notification of issues and allows for quick access to the data required to troubleshoot the issue(s). This video provides insight into the Catchpoint Alert Monitoring solution, showing you what to do after the Alert along with some very helpful links to make sure you've configured your Alerts so they provide the information you need.

Tip of the Day - Synthetic Monitoring the Catchpoint way

Not all synthetic monitoring solutions are created equal. A truly proactive synthetic monitoring platform runs tests from the networks and locations where end users are located, and emulates the same path that the end users take to access websites and applications. Synthetic tests that are run from cloud providers miss many critical issues that affect the customer experience, and often lead to a painfully slow troubleshooting process because they don't capture all the components in the application delivery chain. Learn how Catchpoint's industry-leading synthetic monitoring infrastructure provides easy and effective monitoring from the outside-in for a truly comprehensive Digital Experience Monitoring (DEM) solution.

Tip of the Day - SSL Certificates

Expired SSL certificates are one of the most overlooked causes of performance and reachability problems, as keeping track of all of them and their expiration dates is a long and challenging task. See how Catchpoint's Digitial Experience Montoring (DEM) platform can help you esnure that your SSL certificates remain valid by alerting you whenever their expiration date is approaching.

Tip of the Day - SLA Monitoring

SLAs are all about tracking accountability, and monitoring for those agreements must be done from a reliable third-party source. Trusting your vendors to report on their own SLAs is like asking a fox to guard the henhouse. Learn how Catchpoint enables you to track and alert on specific SLA metrics by measuring from the end user's perspective, allowing you to hold your vendors accountable no matter where your end users are located.

Hospital's IT Almost Wastes $900k on Hardware

After working in enterprise IT for over 20 years, I’ve come to the realization that most departments suffer from the same underlying contradiction. By nature, we IT professionals are a logic-seeking, detail-oriented bunch. Much of our work can take months, if not years, of meticulous planning and research. We find comfort in gazing upon complex, multi-colored scrum boards and searching for answers to problems that any sane person would avoid.
