Case Study: Sauder Woodworking achieves proactive multi-server monitoring with Power Admin PA Server Monitor

Sauder Troubleshoots Servers at Multiple Locations Locally and Globally

Sauder Woodworking, a furniture manufacturer with approximately 2,000 employees, faced the challenge of proactively monitoring over 150 servers across multiple operating systems and global locations. Their IT team was stuck in a reactive cycle, relying on end-user reports to discover problems. They needed a solution from Power Admin that could be implemented quickly to provide centralized, real-time visibility into their server health.

Power Admin implemented its PA Server Monitor solution, which provided a centralized, customizable dashboard for monitoring servers locally and via satellites in remote offices. The solution enabled Sauder's team to receive instant email and text alerts for critical issues, preventing problems before they affected users. The implementation was completed in hours, and the network operations team now relies on the tool's intuitive interface and detailed reporting to maintain system health, making it their most valued IT management tool.
