  2. User-friendly interface

  3. You can add and manage different type of roles:

  • IT management/CIO reports: gets health report and high-level SLA stats (you can manage or propose your parameters for SLA calculation)
  • IT manager: gets opened/closed service requests (ticket) and MTTR stats.
  • Also can assign responsible persons from the Administrator/DevOps list for solving the ticket
  • Administrator/DevOps: can solve a ticket, get WAN availability and average latency reports
  1. Using Redis, Celery and local DataBase App collect and compare different device config changes

  2. Ticket management:

  • filters by type of problem:

    • traffic
    • configuration change
  • filters by creation date
