Eaton's Intelligent Power Manager (IPM) software for disaster avoidance applications provides the tools needed to monitor and manage power devices in your physical or virtual environment. Part of the Brightlayer Data Centers suite, this innovative software solution ensures system uptime and data integrity by allowing you to remotely monitor, manage and control UPSs and other devices on your network. IPM now features a redesigned user interface, more options to automate critical processes and enhanced visualization and contextualization options to better understand the status of IT equipment from anywhere at any time.
“With a single pane of glass, we can monitor power outputs, which we couldn’t do before. That battery backup is the key to our data center decisions related to equipment purchases. It’s helped us to determine how many power supplies to need and which servers are better for power consumption.”
