The BMC ProactiveNet Performance Management Suite learns and baselines the behavior of your applications and IT infrastructure; collects and processes events from a wide variety of sources; predicts problems before they occur; automatically pinpoints probable-cause across technology silos; and initiates standardized problem triage and resolution processes. The BMC ProactiveNet Performance Management Suite optimizes application performance by reducing the number of outages, speeding mean time to repair, and improving operational efficiency through out-of-the-box automation and integration.

The BMC ProactiveNet Performance Management Suite requires a base license and offers several license add-ons. The license add-ons work with the base license to provide functionality for various components.
