A computer’s hardware consists of its physical parts, including its internal pieces and connected external devices. Hardware components perform a computer’s tasks like calculating data, storing information, processing input, and providing output. Any part of a computer that you can physically touch is hardware.
Hardware monitoring is the practice of tracking and managing the health and performance of a computer’s physical components. A hardware monitor is a software application that checks for critical performance metrics such as fan speed, CPU temperature, voltage, battery, memory, and disk space.
Here’s why it is crucial:
Syn-Star work on continuous oversight of the physical components of your computer network, such as servers, routers, switches, and storage devices, to ensure they are operating within desired parameters.
We do this by running locally installed software on your machines communicating periodically with a cloud-based Command & Control system. Syn-Star then receive information on that machine around the clock and so, our team can resolve any issues before having a severe negative impact on your business operations.
Leveraging automation to identify issues and attempt remediation on those incidents Syn-Star can actively monitor and maintain thousands of devices quickly and proactively. Our ServiceDesk engages impacted machines manually where required to remediate remaining incidents.
Our Alerting system provides notifications into our PSA System to allow for Classification, tracking and reporting from individual device problems such as CPU usage to full scale service outages. By utilising dynamic filtering Syn-Star is able to identify commonalities between devices for problem management to ensure proactive responses minimising impact to our customers.
Our round-the-clock hardware monitoring systems are crucial to prevent costly network downtime and business losses.
