Customers find the product very easy to use.
AppCenter currently only monitors applications using Borland's Entera middleware. AppCenter is a single product with all the functionality embedded. However, using AppCenter Cockpit functionality, it is possible to define customized interfaces for individual application managers. The management interface uses a hierarchical visualization of the applications being managed, which has proven to be highly scalable. The repository of management information is a proprietary datastore and is capable of storing information from hundreds of agents.
