Herman Chan, President, Sunbird Software, said,
“Reducing downtime continues to be one of the biggest challenges modern data center managers face. As the utilization of data centers increases in today’s operating environment, Power IQ becomes an even more critical tool to maximize uptime by remotely monitoring power usage and circuit breakers, notifying customers of potential service-impacting issues resulting from a loss of power.”
Release 7.1 creates an alert to customers when thresholds are crossed to prevent possible issues. This feature enables users to react quickly to prevent costly unplanned downtime.
