Why evolve?

Operations Bridge is a holistic product suite designed to help shift IT from a cost function to a strategic business partner. With OMi incorporated directly into Operations Bridge, it delivers all the capabilities of Operations Manager and much more:

True single pane of glass with expansive technology coverage

Automated discovery and monitoring
Cross-domain reporting

To get started today, download the Operations Bridge Evolution Starter Pack and browse the resources below for more information and technical guidance. Also see the Operations Bridge Evolution Guide for more information on the evolution process.
