# Best Enterprise Monitoring Software

  *By [Tian Lin](https://research.g2.com/insights/author/tian-lin)*

   Enterprise monitoring tools provide a single-pane-of-glass approach to overseeing a broad spectrum of IT systems, enabling businesses to monitor servers, applications, networks, databases, and more through a unified dashboard, generating real-time analytics and alerts to support proactive infrastructure management.

### Core Capabilities of Enterprise Monitoring Software

To qualify for inclusion in the Enterprise Monitoring category, a product must:

- Monitor activity and performance for several IT systems such as servers, databases, and networks
- Generate real-time analytics regarding monitored system activity
- Create and distribute detailed alerts via email, phone, and messaging for potential and active failures and errors
- Offer pre-built and custom reporting and dashboards for quick insights into system states

### Common Use Cases for Enterprise Monitoring Software

Server admins, network admins, and IT engineers use enterprise monitoring tools to maintain visibility and control across complex IT environments. Common use cases include:

- Monitoring multi-system environments including servers, databases, and network infrastructure from a single dashboard
- Setting up real-time alerts for performance degradation, outages, and anomalous activity
- Leveraging observability features, including event metrics, traces, logging, and metadata, to understand system state beyond basic monitoring

### How Enterprise Monitoring Software Differs from Other Tools

Enterprise monitoring solutions sometimes incorporate [machine learning](https://www.g2.com/categories/machine-learning) or [AIOps platform](https://www.g2.com/categories/aiops-platforms) capabilities to enhance standard monitoring with intelligent anomaly detection and predictive insights. Some tools are also extending into observability, going beyond reactive monitoring to provide deeper insight into system behavior through correlated metrics, traces, and logs, a capability more fully realized in dedicated observability platforms.

### Insights from G2 on Enterprise Monitoring Software

Based on category trends on G2, unified multi-system dashboards and customizable alerting stand out as the most valued capabilities. Improved incident detection speed and reduced mean time to awareness (MTTA) stand out as primary benefits of adoption.
