Fast, modern HTML5

The user interface that SCOM deserves - blazing fast, easy to learn and accessible from any browser. A truly modern user experience that engages everyone with your monitoring data.

Dashboard Designer

It takes minutes to create dashboards using our fully interactive designer. We've also made sure you don't need to be a SCOM expert, so specialists across your IT organisation can build the views they need.

Community dashboards

Go from zero to monitoring hero by publishing ready-made dashboards across your technology stack, built by experts in the community.

Total Dashboard Architecture

A concept that sets us apart from the rest, our Total Dashboard Architecture dynamically generates drilldown dashboards for every monitored entity - from applications and servers, to databases and disks.

Wall monitor support

Maximise the impact and visibility of your dashboards on that shiny new 50 inch TV in your operations center, with the dedicated full screen mode that strips out the chrome and focuses on the data.

Open Access

Share unlimited dashboards with an unlimited number of users. Open Access renders dashboards on the server-side and so you can provide your users with access to the latest data at no extra cost.

Performance reporting

The SCOM data warehouse is a goldmine of information - recording near real-time metrics from every node in your environment. With Squared Up, the tedious days of generating SCOM reports are behind you.

Export to Excel

Export your performance reports or even whole dashboards out to Excel for further analysis or sharing. To make your life easier, we don't just export the numbers, we generate graphs in Excel for you too!

Management group search

SCOM management groups can be big places. Our global search feature allows users to instantly locate and view and monitored object in your environment.

Easy alert management

No need to deploy the clunky SCOM operations console to your users anymore, Squared Up provides fast, simple access to all the key alert management features - the bane of many SCOM administrators!

Maintenance mode

Proper use of maintenance mode is key to avoid alert noise. Squared Up gives your operations staff convenient access to maintenance for applications, groups of servers or individual servers. No more excuses!

HTML alert email notifications

Email notifications will still play an important role in your overall monitoring strategy. Now you can upgrade your SCOM emails to 'full colour' HTML and link users directly to alert views in Squared Up.

Visualizations

Data that's easy to understand

It’s been well documented that the SCOM console often leaves little to be desired - the answer? Squared Up. Transform all your juicy monitoring data into a stunning array of engaging, easy-to-understand data visualizations. From sparklines to bar charts, from health states to visio diagrams, whatever your monitoring needs - we’ve got you covered. SCOM has never looked so good.

Health state

Squared Up utilizes SCOMs's health state model so you can create clear, high impact dashboards that describe the health of applications, servers and other monitored objects.

Try it now!

SLA

The SLA gauge visualization uses the built-in SCOM Service Level Tracking feature to report on application and server uptime so you can report on service levels and downtime.

Application Monitoring

IT made simple

The world has moved on from infrastructure monitoring. Your business cares about applications, not servers and disks. Sure, Application Performance Management (APM) tools offer a lot of promise, but with enterprise IT typically responsible for hundreds or even thousands of applications, they’re not suited for the vast majority of enterprise applications. This is where our unique Visual Application Discovery & Analysis (VADA) feature steps in. Map and monitor all your enterprise applications using the data the already have.

Integrations

All the data you need in one place

A single pane of glass is one of the most over used phrases in IT, but to fully appreciate application performance you need to look beyond SCOM. Hence the development of our custom integration and WebAPI tiles. Now you can dynamically pull in data from your ITSM and log analytics providers - in the context of your key applications and services - so you can surface the root cause for application performance issues in just a few clicks.

WebAPI

Almost every enterprise or cloud product these days has a web-based API, and the WebAPI tile enables you to integrate data from those products directly into your dashboards. 

Splunk

SCOM and Splunk data in a single view - anything from IIS log files in server drilldowns to security and change audit logs for your applications.

ServiceNow

SCOM and ServiceNow data in a single view - anything from CMDB asset information to change requests and incidents open against your servers or applications.

Azure Log Analytics

SCOM and Azure Log Analytics data in a single view - anything from IIS log files in server drilldowns to security and change audit logs for your applications.

Enterprise Ready

Deliver meaningful results, fast

Enterprise software usually comes with a hefty price tag and takes forever to deploy. Not so with Squared Up. Simply run the installer (to create an IIS app), point it at SCOM, and you’re good to go! The whole process usually takes about ten minutes. Better still, our annual subscription model means you can scale cost depending on your usage. Mapping and monitoring your applications has never been so affordable.
