Historically, organizations with multiple sites and inter-connecting networks spanning geographies have been forced to compromise as they have been limited to two very different choices for network management and monitoring:

Multiple installations of disconnected single solutions at each physical location
Large and expensive systems that require a significant additional investment in implementation, configuration and training

Unfortunately, neither choice represents an optimal solution addressing both total cost of ownership (TCO) and seamless multi-site infrastructure management.

For those organizations searching for a highly capable alternative to single and high-cost enterprise systems, Ipswitch offers WhatsUp Gold Distributed Edition. Built upon the award-winning WhatsUp Gold core architecture, WhatsUp Gold Distributed is a fully-featured network management and application monitoring solution purposely designed to handle complex geographically dispersed multi-site networks. WhatsUp Gold Distributed Edition utilizes Central and Remote software installations. All installations offer local network monitoring and management, and alerts, notifications and reporting data are forwarded from remote sites to the central site for action and analysis.

Powerful multi-site management without the complexity or cost.

In addition to the core feature set available throughout the WhatsUp Gold product family, WhatsUp Gold Distributed Edition adds to this foundation by providing a highly scalable and low bandwidth solution with the following benefits:

Decreases processing loads at central location, by dispersing monitoring components to each remote site
Supports alert dependencies that reduce false alarms due to WAN link or provider equipment failures
Provides real-time, centralized network management across multiple locations with real-time status of each location in its own independent dashboard
Enables continuous monitoring, as each site can run independently until connectivity is restored.
Consolidates information from each remote site into actionable intelligence for generation of over 150 reports, including SLAs levels.
Minimizes traffic on WAN links between each remote site and the central monitoring site as monitoring is localized at each remote site.
Provides unlimited scalability, supporting any number of remote sites from a single central NOC
Ensures air tight security with 128-bit SSL encryption between each remote network connection to central site. SSL over VPN can also be configured.

WhatsUp Gold Distributed Edition provides enterprise organizations with a flexible solution that enables them to reliably and securely manage complex, disparate client network environments. It delivers the visibility, intelligence and control of your network that you need within a single scalable solution at the lowest possible TCO.
