Unplanned downtime is costly for all organizations. It typically results in a financial loss and can negatively impact reputation.
Intelligent Power Manager (IPM) software helps small and medium businesses—typically with fewer than 25* uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs) and/or power distribution units (PDUs)—monitor, manage and control power equipment in physical or virtual environments, enabling you to keep IT devices running during a power or environmental events.
*Our Distributed IT Performance Management software, part of the Brightlayer Data Centers suite, can monitor and manage power equipment in distributed IT environments with more than 25 UPSs and/or UPSs.
“With a single pane of glass, we can monitor power outputs, which we couldn’t do before. That battery backup is the key to our data center decisions related to equipment purchases. It’s helped us to determine how many power supplies to need and which servers are better for power consumption.”
