WhatsUp Gold Helps TTNA Gain Control of their Large Infrastructure

Ipswitch Inc.'s WhatsUp Gold is the chosen solution for a cost-effective network management at TTNA.

[USPRwire, Thu Oct 22 2009] WhatsUp Gold from Ipswitch Inc.’s Network Management Division, a developer of innovative network management software, is the chosen solution for a cost-effective network management at Toyotesu North America (TTNA). TTNA is an automotive parts manufacture and the primary supplier of structural body parts for Toyota. With a small IT staff charged with running the rapidly expanding network across four facilities in North America, TTNA required a cost-efficient yet functional solution to aid in monitoring and managing their infrastructure.

While researching solutions, TTNA considered price, functionality, speed of installment, and ease of operation. WhatsUp Gold proved to be the best fit. Doug Carter, TTNA’s Assistant Manager of IT in North America, stated, “The product offered us everything we needed in terms of functionality and saved us a significant amount of money when considering the cost to purchase and deploy and then cost of operation.”

WhatsUp Gold was quickly implemented in two weeks and has since made life easier for the small IT department who can now monitor the entire distributed network from a central NOC. Previous problems, such as a lack of server disk space resulting in downtime, have been resolved by the notification, history, and trending features allowing employees to monitor file storage space usage, uncover potential problems, and save a significant amount of money. By implementing WhatsUp Gold, TTNA has achieved improved overall performance through timely reactions and minimal downtime.
