An End-to-End View of IT Infrastructure

Any IT executive knows that the things you don't know are the things to be most feared: the PC without antivirus that infects the entire population, the critical server that goes down without backup, the failed audit and other countless examples.

At Blazent, we call this challenge "The 15% Problem". We coined that phrase after performing projects on behalf of 70 enterprises in the fortune 2000 and found that, on average, 15% of the PCs, servers, and network devices in the IT environment were virtually invisible to the operations and asset management teams.

Critical IT initiatives rely on accurate and complete data to successfully budget, plan and execute. It should not be surprising that projects consistently come in late, over budget, or with low quality when the foundational information is 15% wrong. To deliver increased IT business value, the 15% problem must be addressed.
