Enterprise has been developed to monitor and manage Sinetica devices, along with a vast array of other equipment.
A hybrid management system bridging the gap between Network Management Systems, and individual console management. Enterprise has been engineered to provide support specifically for Sinetica devices only.

Hybrid Management Systems
A hybrid management system bridges the gap between universal network management systems, designed to work with all SNMP devices, and consoles specifically designed for a particular device. NB: The Sinetica version of Enterprise supports only Sinetica devices.The design goal is to manage each supported device very well while also providing the ability to manage multiple disparate devices.
The primary advantages to a hybrid management system are as follows: Each device is automatically discovered – While an NMS can discover devices that support SNMP, it cannot really begin to manage the device until the device-specific MIB is compiled and associated with the device.
A hybrid management system uses intelligent MIB integration to not only discover the device but to also determine the type of device and manage it accordingly. Each device is managed very well – This is accomplished by using the consoles designed by the manufacturer to be used with the device. Using the manufacturer-designed console ensures that the values presented will have the proper scaling and units and will be presented in a manner applicable to the device. Alarms are funneled to a single console for review – The IT manager can view all alarms from a single console. Alarms are automatically cleared – Only active alarms are displayed on the console, allowing the IT manager to get a quick snapshot of the health of the infrastructure without having to wade through tens or hundreds of alarms. All alarms are still recorded for review, but intelligent interpretation of the alarms will save valuable time and allow the IT manager to address current problems rather than having to determine which ones have already been corrected. Reporting on multiple devices is available – By knowing about the devices being monitored, reports can be generated for similar devices. A hybrid management system can recognize these similarities and allow reporting for a class of devices. For example, UPSes from different manufacturers may have different MIBs but present very similar data. Device data can be manipulated and interpreted – Not only can the hybrid management system handle simple tasks such as determining the correct units and scaling for data, it can also do much more complex data manipulation and interpretation based on a set of rules provided for the device.
