In addition to providing a complete picture of the host server's performance metrics, NMS provides metrics on the actual performance experience end users have. Armed with these insights, administrators can more quickly identify and troubleshoot issues—before they impact end user performance.
End User Response Time Monitoring
Nimsoft Monitoring Solution (NMS) for end user response ensure that organizations understand the most critical aspect of IT infrastructure performance: what kind of responsiveness and reliability are end users actually receiving?

With NMS’ active monitoring offerings, administrators can routinely and consistently generate synthetic transactions that mirror actual end user behavior, and measure that experience from any number of locations. In addition, NMS’ passive monitoring products can measure the performance that real end users are actually experiencing at any given point in time.
With these solutions, administrators can better ensure end users are receiving optimal performance—and be the first to know if an issue arises.
