Tough challenges face pharmaceutical, medical devices and biotechnology companies today: longer time to market for new drugs or products; increased competition in a global marketplace; high research and development (R&D) costs; and complex compliance requirements.

This holistic view of application monitoring facilitates communication and collaboration within and across IT support groups, allowing proactive responses to service degradations.
