DULUTH, MN – February 5th, 2007 – Ascendview, a leading provider in live diagnostics network monitoring software today has announced the release of WildMetrix™ Version 2.4, which includes live monitoring diagnostics for Active Directory, ASP.NET Applications, Cisco Network Devices, Exchange Server, SQL Server, Windows Server, and Internet Information Server. The WildMetrix™ solution provides the most comprehensive set of customizable monitoring solutions for identifying and diagnosing mission critical server, application, and network incidents.

This release incorporates new enhancements to the already full-featured monitoring software, including:

• WildMetrix™ Live Mode: Provides completely live diagnostic metrics analysis with a single click
• Internet Information Server (IIS): Monitors all pages hosted on Internet Information Servers, including websites, ecommerce, and legacy asp web applications with a single drag-n-drop
• Intelligent Ribbon Bar: Increases usability with our new Intelligent Ribbon Bar which follows the user’s actions and illuminates crowded toolbars

Acquiring a fully customizable, centralized, live intelligence monitoring solution just got easier. IT professionals can gain valuable insight from live metrics data to help solve mission critical server, application and network incidents faster by toggling on WildMetrix™ Live Mode. With Live Mode activated on a device such as a server, data is collected and retained every second to provide live analytical decision support. This feature can be toggled off when incidents are corrected for normal management monitoring.

Monitoring corporate websites, ecommerce, and web applications hosted on Internet Information Server is now as easy as drag-n-drop. With the new monitoring solution, technology professionals can visually see each page execution and correlate the performance of each page with other performance metrics such as the database server or the inter-connecting switches and load balancers. Alerting professionals when any of the hundreds of pages take longer than a specified time to load or have experienced failure is built in with the WildMetrix™ alerting framework.

Increasing ease of use and faster tool selection with the Intelligent Ribbon Bar introduces a completely new way of using WildMetrix™. During use of WildMetrix™ analytical, mapping, dashboard and management features, the Ribbon-bar is adjusting to accommodate the user’s next move and will present the most commonly used selections with larger icons.

A complete list of all the features and solutions of WildMetrix™ can be found on the company’s website: www.ascendview.com, or www.wildmetrix.com
