Event Manager

eTOM and ITIL Event Management

The NetVision Event Manager is a complete event management solution designed to support service operations. It enables root cause analysis of problems in ICT services.

It is based on the two fundamental concepts of event correlation and event prioritisation, which ensures that issues are proactively identified and that they can be tracked effectively.

By correlating events and the time elapsed since they occurred, SLA management can be enhanced. Fault and performance management can adopt a more proactive stance, ensuring that it plays a strategic role in operations.


Proactive SLA and Performance Management

NetVision Event Manager creates a complete picture based on sequential events, categorised according to frequency and type, which contributes significantly to visibility of operational processes and a real-time view of infrastructure. Because it accumulates data dynamically, users benefit from historical information that leads to proactive SLA management and a more accurate representation of real and evolving network conditions.
