Zenoss Brings Enterprise-Grade Open Source IT Management to Medium-Sized Organizations

(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) ANNAPOLIS, MD, October 1 / MARKET WIRE/ --

Zenoss Inc., today announced the expansion of
its award-winning application, systems, and network management
product line with a new offering built to address the specific needs of
medium-sized IT organizations. Zenoss Professional Edition is now available
to make enterprise-grade application, systems, and network monitoring accessible to
IT operations through an integrated, affordable, easy-to-use offering.

"Until now medium-sized IT shops simply could not afford the powerful
management tools they need to keep up with their growing IT environments,"
said Bill Karpovich, Zenoss co-founder and CEO. "Made possible by our
unique approach, Zenoss Professional gives mid-market IT teams what they
have been searching for -- an integrated, affordable and
commercially-supported solution to monitor their entire IT infrastructure."

Zenoss Professional is a complete, integrated solution for managing the IT
infrastructure including networks, servers, and applications. With a
centralized Configuration Database (CMDB) and agentless monitoring
technology, Zenoss Professional is quick and easy to deploy with the
following features:

-- Auto-discovery of all resources (such as network devices, servers, and
applications), populating the CMDB with vital configuration and
architectural information for each resource.

-- Network Topology map with real-time updates showing all device-to-
device relationships without any human programming or intervention

-- Availability and performance monitoring -- out of the box -- for each
network device, server, application, etc. using 100% agentless technology

-- Inventory and Change Tracking with real-time alerting when changes
occur so that IT staff always has a current view of the infrastructure.

-- Aggregated log and event management using data from various sources
including availability and performance monitors, syslogs, Windows Event
Log, and SNMP trap sources

-- Single web-based console, allowing all IT stakeholders to view their
specific data through a single easy-to-user Web Portal

-- Out-of-the-box reports for service levels management, capacity
management, and more

Zenoss offers the best of both worlds -- open source flexibility and
professional service and support -- a unique offering that was previously
unattainable by organizations of this size.
