Zenoss' powerful Configuration Management Database (CMDB) allows you to monitor almost any network device and displays this information to you intelligently so that you can take action. While some network monitoring products feel like a patch quilt of software, Zenoss is a tightly integrated toolset with an open source design that gives you flexibility. As your organization grows you can integrate new capabilities so Zenoss grows with it. Protect the backbone of your organization; monitor network devices, availability of services, host resources, and more with the JumpBox for Zenoss.
