Sentry-go Enterprise Option
  
The Sentry-go Enterprise Option is an optional component that allows status & alert information from all your monitors within the environment to be accessed centrally - i.e. across the enterprise. 

Using a SQL Server database, monitors subscribe to the self-maintained service which collates the information and allows it to be accessed from any of those monitors using the integrated web server.
 

Sentry-go Enterprise Reporting
  

The Sentry-go Enterprise Option gives users the ability to see & treat all monitors as a whole. With it, you can view aspects of the entire enterprise, rather than on a server by server basis that is normally available.

This is of particular benefit to larger organisations where multiple Sentry-go monitors are installed. Web-based reports allow you to ...

  • View information from all monitors within a single report, including alerts, the current status of monitored checks and overall system health.
  • Drill down to view all aspects of a particular server.
  • Drill down to view all aspects of a particular monitoring component across servers.
  • Spot & analyse trends and common issues between servers.
  • Access monitored information directly from the server in order to target a specific issue.

Sentry-go Solutions Solving Errors with Sentry-goSolutions.com
  
Unlike many other systems, Sentry-go not only monitors, detects and alerts you when errors occur, it can also help & assist you with problem resolution. Using auto-responses, you can configure the monitor to take action automatically in order to resolve a fault - for example ...
  • Clear down temporary files to reclaim disk space
  • Restart a failed service
  • Pause or delete a large print
  • Terminate a SQL connection that is blocking others etc.

For more complex issues, the monitoring also links directly to Sentry-go Solutions!
