We are thrilled to kick off February with some good news. Yet another company has selected Nodinite’s logging, monitoring, and repository tool. This time it is an advisory, operations, and maintenance services company. This company provides services to thousands of customers in the Nordic region and is a market leader in its field.

Marketing Latest

1. Nodinite is now on Capterra! It is a sign that Nodinite is maturing that you can now find us on one of the largest software review websites. We are found alongside similar software tools. That said, there is no other tool quite like Nodinite in the market that caters to system integration monitoring, logging, and with a repository. Because of this, we feel that there is no specific category in Capterra that is a perfect match for us but rather a combination of categories.

2. Frequently Asked Questions page! For anyone with questions about Nodinite or if they simply want to learn more about some of the features for Azure or BizTalk, there is now a specific page for this. Click here to visit the new FAQ page.

3. We are also busy updating the look and feel of our website. We are addressing technical readers and we intend to add more value to technical questions and answers. In particular, the first impressions visitors get when they come to the front page. Last month we reported the new “See how it works” pages that were published.

These changes to the website are made to enhance and the improve visitor experience. Remember to frequently visit Nodinite’s website to discover the latest updates.

4. Michael Olsson, Nodinite’s CEO made a presentation on the 8^th of February for members of SAPSA. Nodinite was invited to speak about our repository. Click here to learn more about SAPSA.

Partner Activities

Roundtable Event

A roundtable event took place on the 7^th of February arranged by Contica and actively supported by Nodinite. The main topic being ‘how to use best practices to spread Nodinite outside the IT department’. It was a follow-up to the first event in November which Contica also hosted.

As with the first event, this was an invite only event for public sector organizations. It was another successful activity with an invited guest speaker from Epical Group, Jesper Brumark, who provided a real-life case study explaining how an organization had successfully implemented best practices outside an IT department. Participants also had the opportunity to engage in group discussions and networking.

E-Learning

With 150 minutes (about 2 and a half hours) of content divided into 7 programs around getting started and learning Nodinite, we are excited to release another elaborative program around Azure Application Monitoring – with and without Nodinite.

The program will need 33 minutes of your time and is divided into 4 modules. It covers 3 different scenarios an integration consultant like yourself would come across in day-to-day job with maintaining systems integrations. We are sure it’s worth the watch to realise the value Nodinite adds to Azure monitoring.

Those scenarios talk about how you would go about solving the problems in Azure monitoring vs. how Nodinite comes in and makes it much convenient. The scenarios are given below –

1) Scenario 1: Logic App Application failed run:

– Azure Portal Monitor

– Install and configure logic app agent and configuration

– Setting up alarm (and wait for Azure portal alarm email)

– The comparison

2) Scenario 2: Dead-Letters

– Azure Portal Monitor

– Installing MQ agent and configuration

– Azure portal alarm review

– Nodinite’s features of MQ agent

3) Scenario 3: A disabled Logic Application

– How it looks in Azure Portal Monitor

– How it is resolved in Nodinite

– We still wait for Azure portal Alarms email.

4) Final remarks on how Nodinite complements Azure monitoring.

Monthly short story #6

Below is a short, and highly fictional, tale where Nodinite, a plucky, global do-gooder and overall superhero software tool, solves problems. Every month a new adventure will be included in each newsletter. The stories themselves are imaginary and are of course a not-so-subtle reference to how Nodinite’s tool helps organizations in the real world.

Read and enjoy!

Save $$$ in the Annual Budget with Nodinite

Once upon a time, the IT department of a large multinational business faced a tough financial challenge. They needed to monitor their system integrations and keep logs as well as have a repository with landscape views capabilities.

But there was a snag – the global economy was experiencing a prolonged downturn. Their company was suffering from the recession with lower sales and tighter margins. Consequently, the allocated budget for a monitoring and logging solution was limited and unfortunately the most well-known software tools on the market were prohibitively expensive. These vendors used an expensive license model per user and on top of that many also charged for usage or transactions.

In this scenario the multinational could only afford a handful of licenses. Not nearly enough to cover their needs. Yet the head of the IT department was progressive. She wanted to enable data democracy among employees by delegating role-based responsibility of monitoring and logging of system integrations.

That’s when Nodinite came along and saved the day!

Its pricing model is based on one license per organization, regardless of the number of internal users. Not only that, their flat rate and annual cost was well within budget. They were even listed on the highly rated Capterra website! The multinational company quickly purchased this amazing software tool and began monitoring, logging, and documenting their system integrations without breaking the bank.

The news spread like wildfire throughout this industry: Nodinite had a more feasible pricing model than any similar product out there because it allowed organizations to save money on licenses while still getting exactly what they needed from monitoring, logging, and with a repository on top of that.

In the end, everyone in the multinational company was delighted thanks to Nodinite’s clever tool. Which enables customers around the world access system integration monitoring while saving money with just one license purchase per organization.
