System Shepherd® Monitoring Templates

To meet the needs of organizations that rely on complex, heterogeneous IT environments, System Shepherd is designed to acquire and seamlessly integrate data from any source including home-grown applications, custom integrations, and fringe platforms. System Shepherd delivers consistent, centralized visibility – regardless of what is being monitored.

GUI-Based Configuration Tool

To help you tailor System Shepherd for your environment, we supply a GUI-based tool for modifying configuration settings and thresholds in System Shepherd monitoring templates. While each pre-built System Shepherd monitoring template supplies intelligent default values that are based on our experience managing complex real-world environments, you can use the intuitive Configuration Tool to modify System Shepherd to reflect the “normal” behavior for each monitored system in your environment.
