Geek Speak

Advice on changing network management products, trends in the industry, and more...

I was answering a set of e-mails today on when's a good time to change network management products, what trends I'm seeing in the industry, and how to evaluate a network management solution and I got to thinking that these are some of the questions that we answered on our recent video segment with Gartner Group. So, if you're interested you can watch the segment at:

No promises on how many times I stutterred or said "uhhh" or "ummm" but in my defense it was hot as heck in that room... Not the geekiest comments I've utterred but definitely some value there.


Flame on...

I'd like to see the video but the link fails, can you help me out?

We are just starting to look at vendors for remote network management. Something to collect data and send us reports weekly but also to alert us to emergency situations for our various clients.

thx
