LogicMonitor is a solution that evolved out of the unique monitoring needs of datacenters.

LogicMonitor will find, discover everything about, and start monitoring virtually any datacenter device. And if you have a device in your datacenter it does not support, let us know, and we will most likely be happy to add extensive support for it.

LogicMonitor is different from other systems in that:

• it monitors more, and deeper. This aids greatly in both problem resolution, and problem prevention.
• it's easier. No extensive configuration is needed to do thorough monitoring.
• it's more flexible. You can attach specific tests to groups, or to hosts. Host can be a member of multiple groups. Alert thresholds can be overridden on a host, group or instance (like a specific disk volume) level.
• it's more powerful. Its device instance discovery supports flexible filtering, and you can easily clone datasources.  This lets you easily create monitoring that filters out staging systems, or automatically applies separate alerts on them.

There are a host of good reasons why LogicMonitor is the best system for monitoring datacenters.  But it is also great for internal IT, for those that want powerful monitoring, and not simplistic green light dashboards.
