The SCO Group, a provider of UNIX software technology and mobile services, has announced the availability of HipCheck, the latest offering from the company's Me Inc. mobile services division that monitors and manages UNIX and Windows systems through Windows mobile phones. HipCheck combines system monitoring and alerts with secure mobile intervention. HipCheck allows business solution providers and IT system administrators to continually monitor the health of Windows and UNIX systems, setting alert thresholds for a wide range of parameters. The instant a condition reaches a threshold, an SMS or email message is sent to an authorized technician's mobile phone. 'Early warning' alerts can be set on certain parameters, a critical disk drive getting too full, for example, that lets the technician take preventative action. "We believe HipCheck will satisfy the mobile access and support needs of many IT managers with ease", said Chris Woolfenden, technical director at Yanex, a leading U.K. information technology services firm. "Through its reliable and robust interface, IT staff will be able to access critical and desktop systems anywhere, anytime. The product's features ideally lend themselves to situations where IT staff are limited or distributed and where 24 hours a day, 365 days a year coverage is required. The cost savings using HipCheck can be considerable." HipCheck is now available worldwide and customers may open a free trial account at www.hipcheck.me-inc.com by entering account information and accepting the end user license agreement when presented. Free trial accounts are valid for 14 days. HipCheck pricing varies based on the number of users, servers and period of time that the service is used on the Windows Mobile device. Pricing ranges from $10 to $18 per monitored system per month. Get more info here. |
