PremiTech Releases Performance Guard v3.5 and the Business Transaction Monitor Module

Measuring Actual Transaction Time on End-User PCs Enables Companies to Increase Productivity and Optimize Business Impact of IT Investments

PremiTech, a leading provider of software for auditing and optimizing IT performance, today announced general availability of Performance Guard v3.5, an application performance management solution, and the Business Transaction Monitor Module. By engaging timers on selected client applications, such as accounting, customer service or human resources, IT staff can now measure the exact time it takes for an end-user's PC to process business transactions, giving companies tools to manage IT from a business perspective.

"As more companies seek to evolve IT from a cost center into a strategic business partner, CIOs need the ability to measure actual application, network and transaction performance," said Henrik Rosendahl, executive vice president, PremiTech Inc. "PremiTech is dedicated to giving our customers the tools they need to measure IT's impact on service quality and staff productivity, as well as the overall value it delivers to the business."

Performance Guard v3.5 now also enables software OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) to build the Performance Guard agent into their software for re-sale purposes.

Performance Guard is an off-the-shelf, standard solution that provides the ability to monitor end-user quality of IT service by delivering consistent, accurate measurement of application performance from the end-user perspective in real time. As opposed to competing solutions that provide simulated transaction measurements, the Business Transaction Monitor Module enables IT to define the transactions to monitor, including an option to incorporate the time it takes for the end-user to act, and gain real-time measurements of actual transaction processing time from the clients' perspective. With this ability, companies can monitor mission-critical IT system performance and resolve issues quickly, increase IT staff and user productivity, and reduce expenses in infrastructure and human resources.

Performance Guard v3.5 and the Business Transaction Monitor Module are available from PremiTech and its partners. For more information, please visit www.premitech.com, e-mail Henrik Rosendahl at hrosendahl@premitech.com or call (973) 490-8571.
