Edge is the secret weapon for software vendors seeking to broaden the appeal, flexibility and scalability of their existing management tools. By providing a COTS-based solution that transforms the vendor’s proprietary interface into a flexible, user-centric GUI, Edge helps these vendors seamlessly integrate their products into a customer’s environment.

Traditionally, each vendor develops integration capabilities and user interface based on its own specific product. This approach may be ideal for the vendor’s unique, but relatively narrow, responsibilities. The customer, on the other hand, has broad enterprise-wide responsibilities requiring the use of multiple systems, applications, and tools.

The user needs the vendor’s management capabilities but wants to interface with those capabilities on his or her terms, not the vendor’s.

Edge’s vendor-agnostic approach resolves this dilemma for users and vendors alike. By providing simple and seamless integration of all information assets (not to mention an extensive library of pre-built 3rd party integrations), Edge empowers the user to interface with all management tools in a way that makes sense to him or her.

This provides the vendor the capability to provide a solution to customers who might otherwise disqualify the tool from consideration. GUI flexibility is only part of the Edge advantage. Edge’s solution also provides several additional benefits to the vendor including:

A model for large-scale scalability
Rich, user-centric state-of-the-art visualizations with comprehensive drill-down capabilities
Real-time data, real-time interaction

And the enhanced GUI solution is ready to deploy, right now.
