CA Nimsoft Monitor delivers extensive, intuitive insights into SAP Basis performance.

Your business depends on SAP systems. When performance suffers, critical business functions, such as order-to-cash or financial close, can slow to a crawl or even halt completely. With CA Nimsoft Monitor for SAP, your administrators gain the insights they need to quickly identify and preempt performance degrading issues—before they have an impact on critical business services.

CA Nimsoft Monitor gives you comprehensive coverage of all SAP Basis events and core components, and of the entire IT infrastructure. CA Nimsoft Monitor offers the targeted and flexible SAP monitoring your IT group needs to quickly identify and prevent problems across your organization’s entire SAP environment. Developed by AGENTIL, a CA Nimsoft Unified Monitoring Alliance Partner and SAP Service Partner, CA Nimsoft Monitor for SAP Basis provides comprehensive monitoring of all SAP Basis events and core components—so you gain the insights you need to optimize the performance of your SAP-powered business.

Key Features

Delivering the SAP Monitoring Views You Need

CA Nimsoft Monitor gives you these critical capabilities:

A consolidated view of SAP environments.
CA Nimsoft Monitor provides consolidated, secure, and agentless access to key performance indicators (KPIs) within SAP. This automated process eliminates the need for Basis administrators to log into multiple locations to manually run and analyze SAP performance traces.
Support for data security and regulatory compliance.
CA Nimsoft Monitor connects to the SAP system with a dedicated SAP authorization profile. This, along with the controls found in CA Nimsoft Unified Management Portal, allows you to safely enable SAP performance from anywhere in the world by internal or third-party resources—without risking unauthorized access to confidential data.
Seamless deployment.
CA Nimsoft Monitor uses standard SAP-approved communication protocols (SAP Remote Function Calls) to retrieve performance information, and the flexible CA Nimsoft message bus to transport it. Together, these capabilities reduce the risk of communication issues and ensure seamless monitoring of future SAP releases.
Historical views of performance.
Because CA Nimsoft Monitor stores performance data over time, your IT administrators gain a baseline of normal SAP performance across network, storage, operating system, database, and ABAP application tiers. When cyclical workloads, such as financial close, degrade performance, IT can more easily spot trends to proactively increase capacity or reschedule jobs to alleviate bottlenecks.
