Reflecting on the selection process, Hareesh says the SevOne NPM solution scored highly on the key features and capabilities outlined above, along with factors such as speed of large-scale deployment. But he was quick to point out that his team was also influenced by the hard-to-define qualities that distinguish both IBM and his SevOne NPM solution. “IBM was able to demonstrate that it had a roadmap for new technologies such as cloud and his SD-WAN, and it aligned closely with our technology vision,” he said. say.
In collaboration with SevOne NPM Professional Services, BT Business first deployed SevOne NPM to two of its largest customers. Within the next year and a half, the company migrated over 800 additional customers. Currently, BT Business uses his SevOne NPM to monitor over 200,000 devices. And a closer look at how things work today shows how far the company is in achieving the vision it set out at the beginning of its journey.
Let's start with speed. The ability to provide unified, real-time reporting of network performance through a distributed architecture that enables “speed at scale” is a core value of SevOne NPM. This means that even as more devices and data centers are monitored by the solution, the speed at which day-to-day utilization reports can be generated and problems identified and addressed remains high. This means fewer bottlenecks within your monitoring solution, no matter how large your deployment.
Hareesh claims that SevOne NPM's real-time, portal-based reporting is a real game-changer for customers who are used to report generation being slow and tedious. “Customers are saying, 'This is amazing.' We're seeing this redefining the way they view their network and increasing the value of being a BT Business customer. ”
