Designed for midsized enterprises that operate from 50 to 2000 devices on their networks EM7 G2 delivers robust monitoring straight "out of the box".

EM7 G2 is the original product based on ScienceLogic's vision to provide a comprehensive suite of monitoring solutions in a single, easy-to-deploy and cost-effective solution. All functionality is delivered in appliances and already integrated to support automated workflow of daily IT operations, from performance and fault management to ticketing and service desk functions to asset management and capacity planning. Typically, our appliance-based solution replaces from 3 to 5 existing solutions, delivering immediate ROI and lowering your total cost of ownership. One solution simplifies and consolidates the tools you need to get the job done and provides a "single pane of glass" view across all IT infrastructure.

Pre-integrated Management Applications

Every EM7 G2 solution includes a full set of infrastructure management applications that have already been integrated - saving you time and money. With EM7 G2, there are no extra modules to buy to enjoy the full functionality of the system.

Dynamic Discovery
Next-generation auto-discovery provides intelligent automation by matching known agents, devices, applications and systems with best-practice monitoring rules, thresholds, events and alerts. EM7 G2 ships with Dynamic Applications monitoring templates (data collection via SNMP monitoring, SQL queries, XML and SOAP) for leading manufacturers and devices or create your own custom monitoring templates that are automatically applied in the Dynamic Discovery process.

Centralized Data Repository
EM7 G2 includes an embedded MySQL database, providing a single IT operations management data store - pre-loaded, pre-tested and pre-configured for optimal performance in the appliance and with all EM7 G2 management applications. Acting as an operational CMDB, the centralized data repository stores both fault and performance data, configuration data, asset information and more - providing built-in data integration for better troubleshooting and reporting across all infrastructure. The data store is self-managed, self-healing and is delivered with sophisticated performance tuning. EM7 G2 does not require additional DBA resources to operate.

Vendor-Agnostic: Integration with Existing Point and Framework Solutions
Out of the box, EM7 G2 is easily integrated with most leading point and framework solutions. This allows you to preserve and even enhance the investment in time and money that you have already made for IT management software and solutions - regardless of specific operating system, hardware manufacturer or application software.

Views, Reports & Executive Dashboards
A customizable Web-based portal gives you access to EM7 G2 anytime, anywhere. Views and access can be customized for a company, department or even a user - making it easy to create executive dashboards that show application or IT process performance at a glance. In addition, hundreds of pre-set reports are included with the EM7 system along with tools that make it simple to create more of your own. Many reports can be downloaded as an Adobe PDF file or as a Microsoft Excel file for further analysis.

Efficient and Extensible Architecture
The solution is easily scalable for monitoring from 50 to 2000 networked devices. EM7 G2 offers a Distributed Architecture which distributes core functions of EM7 to dedicated appliances that are optimized for maximum performance and capacity.

Security
EM7 G2 includes features for the integrated management of network security, application security, and access control. EM7 G2 can minimize security risks across the infrastructure using its embedded intrusion detection, hardening controls, system-access controls, facility-access controls, and authentication controls.

As a "manager of managers", EM7 G2 leverages existing security systems, such as firewalls and IDS - monitoring and managing them from a centralized console. EM7 G2 also includes a patch management feature which provides detailed reports on software versions, patches, and hot-fixes (both installed and required) for all devices in the network.
