Case Study: PUCRS achieves near-100% uptime across its campus with Paessler PRTG

PUCRS achieves nearly 100% uptime with Paessler AG

Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS), a major university in Brazil, faced challenges with its lack of proactive IT monitoring. Its previous solution required extensive in-house sensor development, which slowed response times and prevented effective capacity planning for its large campus infrastructure. The university turned to Paessler AG and implemented its PRTG monitoring solution to gain better visibility.

By deploying PRTG, Paessler AG provided PUCRS with comprehensive out-of-the-box monitoring capabilities. The solution was implemented across thousands of sensors, covering servers, network devices, databases, environmental conditions in data centers, and even campus turnstiles. This provided the team with a predictive view for capacity planning, helping to achieve nearly 100% availability for its network, devices, and applications.
