The live webcast will be held on Thursday, February 28 at 11am Eastern.

"Vision Director brings performance and automation technologies that are vital for maintaining IT systems," says Vision Solutions Chief Technology Officer and Executive Vice President Alan Arnold.

    significantly by presenting easy-to-understand views of a system's health

    information with more than 60 new GUI-based reports providing sorting of
    every column, column filter and row; download to xml and spreadsheet;
    charts; explanatory text and more
    
--  Dynamic monitoring of objects that leverages technology from HA
    solutions to keep object cross-reference information automatically current
    
--  Change analysis which allows users to group libraries into multiple
    domains and report/monitor growth across these domains
    

"It is a great advantage that when Vision Director creates reports, it actually actively does something about issues automatically," says Raymond Hammell, Vision solutions architect and webcast presenter.
