Ecora Releases Free Configuration Documentation Software
Ecora Documentor is the first free software to automate documentation of nearly the entire IT infrastructure
Portsmouth, NH (PRWEB) June 13, 2006 -- Ecora Software, the leader in software solutions supporting IT control, compliance, and security, announced the release of the industry’s first free software to generate on-demand, detailed configuration reports for nearly every system and device found in an IT infrastructure.
Ecora Documentor is a Windows® application which installs on a Windows workstation and collects hundreds of thousands of configuration settings to generate comprehensive documentation reports. With a click of a button, users can document Microsoft Windows and Exchange servers, SQL Server databases, Active Directory, and workstations; HP-UX, AIX, Solaris, RedHat Linux, and Novell NetWare servers; Oracle databases, Citrix and IIS applications; Lotus Domino servers; and Cisco routers.
The free software eliminates the time-consuming and error prone manual process of data collection and ensures accurate, timely documentation of the IT infrastructure.
“In today’s complex, compliance-driven IT environments, having current documentation of IT systems is a must have,” Alex Bakman, founder and CEO of Ecora, said. “Systems change constantly, and each change – whether planned or unplanned – can trigger downtime or a security breach. It is impossible for IT staff to manually keep track of system configurations with any degree of accuracy, yet up-to-date documentation is one of the most effective means of maintaining control of the IT infrastructure.”
Ecora Documentor provides consistent, standardized configuration documentation that aids in:
| | - IT Audits – Provide up-to-date, accurate documentation of the infrastructure in a format that is easy to understand.
|
| | - Security – Discover suspicious or sub-optimal configuration settings and close security holes.
|
| | - Disaster Recovery – Rapidly configure systems back to their pre-disaster state and minimize downtime.
|
| | - Troubleshooting – Maximize productivity and reduce time to resolution with access to current and historical configuration data.
|
| | - Consolidations & Migrations – Maintain a current snapshot of the IT infrastructure for quick assessments and server configuration comparisons.
|
Documentation is often generated in an hour or less and is available in html and Microsoft Word formats. To download this FREE software, or for more information, please visit www.ecora.com.
