Conclusion

Whilst the theme for this infographic might suggest otherwise, this was never meant to be a technological showdown between EAM and APM. We’re big fans of APM tools. We simplyapply that same service-centric approach - a technique first used by APM tools - to the masses. Albeit at a different level of detail. For that reasons alone APM and EAM tools should be viewed as complementary rather than competing.

Together, you’ll have all your monitoring bases covered.
