FactFinder Application Monitoring and Management Features

FactFinder Application Management Software fills the gap in traditional APM tools with application identification, transaction level visibility, 24x7 application monitoring, and problem solving features that help IT operations and application support teams increase application availability and optimize application performance in any environment – Physical, Virtual, and Cloud.

FEATURE BENEFIT
Automatic Application System Identification
 
FactFinder automatically finds each application and identifies the application system (collection of systems, processes, and connections that make up the app).  Application system changes are detected in real time and displayed correctly to the user.
  • Identification of applications and their architecture in minutes
  • Complete visibility of applications and transactions
  • Always accurate - never out of date
  • No manual configuration, coding, or setup required
Transaction Performance Monitoring Across the Infrastructure
 
FactFinder fills the APM visibility gap by following transactions across technology tiers, mapping both the application architecture and transaction paths.  Complete visibility between technology tiers includes performance metrics between nodes.
  • Complete visibility across the entire infrastructure
  • Visualization of complete transaction path
  • Manage applications across all environments: Physical, Virtual, and Cloud
AppSmart™ Discovery & Tracking  
AppSmart enables FactFinder’s automatic application discovery, application mapping, and application monitoring, requiring Zero Coding, Zero Configuration, and Zero Maintenance.

AppSmart tracking enables real-time monitoring of application transactions across technology silos, with a real-time application map that dynamically updates when changes occur.
  • See application maps, performance metrics, monitoring status, and more on a single screen
  • Quickly enable application monitoring and application management functionality without any special coding or configuration activities
  • See where all application transactions go, where transactions spend their time, and why
24/7 Application System Monitoring  
FactFinder 24/7 application monitoring provides application request metrics, measured hop-by-hop across technology silos. Alerts sent when problems occur can be on-screen messages, e-mails, or messages to other system management tools.
  • See real-time application monitoring views around the clock
  • React quickly to problems with on-screen and e-mail alerts
  • Resolve potential application problems before end users are impacted
Application Management & Problem Resolution  
FactFinder enables any IT team member to quickly solve application problems with a simple process. When a problem occurs, FactFinder users follow transaction requests across the application system to isolate the problematic process in minutes.
  • Reduce Problem Solving time by 90%
  • Improve Mean Time To Resolution (MTTR) by 10x or more
  • Identify cause of problems quickly and easily
  • Enable any individual on IT team to properly identify problem cause
Application Benchmarking & Forecasting  
FactFinder’s production application performance metrics enable real-time application monitoring and predictive analysis. Performance Reports validate application performance at a glance. Comparison Reports quickly compare updated applications against application benchmarks.

Automatic Load Curves predict application performance for different load levels.
  • Publish application monitoring data in professional reports with a few clicks
  • Validate application performance and availability of new applications quickly
  • Compare application performance to standard benchmarks quickly and easily
  • Forecast application performance and scalability accurately
  • Include application performance in Capacity Planning
App Center Application Management Dashboard  
Numerous application monitoring features are together on the App Center application management dashboard, which displays everything important about the application environment on a single screen, including:
  • Complete Application Map
  • Application List
  • Application Monitoring Filters
  • Application Performance Graphs
  • Alert and Event List
  • Searchable Application Resource List
  • See application monitoring status for all applications on a single screen
  • Map the application architecture without needing any prior application knowledge
  • Find application components that match a specific type (i.e., ”Oracle”)
  • Know which applications have high load or bad application performance
  • Highlight specific applications and application components with a click
App Explorer Application Workbench  
When application monitoring alerts indicate a problem, FactFinder isolates the specific application on the App Explorer screen:
  • Maps components and process-level connections for a specific application
  • Shows application performance graphs for response time, load, and more
  • Displays application monitoring filters in easy-to-read graphs
  • See all important application information on a single screen
  • Highlight all components of a specific application with a click
  • Get application performance graphs and application monitoring status at a glance
  • Manage a single application, including details on:
    • Transaction Response Times
    • Process / Machine Level Insight & Drill-Down
    • Configuration Resources
Triage and Application Performance Reporting  
FactFinder makes it easy to publish results of application monitoring and application management functionality with rich reports that help better manage application performance:
  • Comparison Report
  • Triage Report
  • Performance Report
  • Inventory / Configuration Report
  • Quickly publish important application performance data
  • Retrieve application monitoring and application performance data fast
  • Confirm conclusions of application performance issues
  • Easily benchmark standard application performance
