In buildings today, there are numerous systems that require regular maintenance or that need attention as quickly as possible if problems are detected. This applies, for example, to heating systems, air conditioning, cooling, ventilation, elevators or fire alarm systems. Modern facility management systems are able to reliably monitor such systems.

We are excited announcing the release of the 9th generation of our alerting signature product Enterprise Alert! Release 9 contains exciting new features and improvements. Read about all the details in this blog article.

You aren't sure how long you've been here, but the view outside the window sure is soothing. Before you can fully take in your surroundings, a siren rips you back into the conscious world. Slowly, you begin to piece together that you exist, and you are on call. The ringing, much louder now, pierces through your skull as you begin to open your bleary eyes. You turn over your pillow, grab your phone, and click through the PagerDuty notification.

Recently we have received a lot of requests for Enterprise Alert to not only alert on critical situations but to also take a proactive approach to initiate, record and track those situations through ITSM tools such as ServiceNow and BMC Remedy. This post will center around what happens when critical systems fail and tickets are not being created in ServiceNow due to a break in the workflow.
