Challenge	Evenbase, the team behind jobsite.co.uk, was facing challenges with their IT infrastructure. With candidates accessing vital information via Evenbase’s online tools, the IT team was under constant pressure to ensure their entire infrastructure was functioning correctly. They had been dealing with downtime and unnecessary alerts to their on-call team, so Evenbase required a product which could also collaborate with their existing Orion NPM system. They needed a monitoring tool that could provide them with the scope to monitor their entire IT estate while providing an in-depth, single view capability. Read More
About Customer	Evenbase is guided by the team that pioneered online recruitment in 1995 by creating jobsite.co.uk when there were just 40,000 internet users across the UK. Jobsite is now one of the country's leading online recruitment sites and the cornerstone for Evenbase’s ever expanding digital recruitment portfolio. Evenbase’s portfolio includes the flagship job board brands Jobsite and Oilcareers, the leading multi-poster and unified search provider Broadbean. The company is located in Hampshire, UK and has between 21 to 500 employees. Read More

This needed to be flexible enough to interface with their in-house written scripts alongside Orion NPM, as this was also required by their network support provider. Opsview was able to provide such a solution with relatively simple installation and configuration. The initial installation of Opsview Enterprise took Evenbase just a few days, which got the software up and running to the same level as their previous Nagios installation. Once Opsview was set up to Evenbase’s requirements, it was clear that the system could handle more data than previous installations. Read More Log in to view content
