What is device health monitoring software?
Device health monitoring software continuously tracks the operational status, availability and performance of IT devices, identifies conditions that fall outside defined thresholds, and notifies IT teams so problems can be investigated before they disrupt users. AMG extends that further: every actionable monitoring event can open an ITSM incident that is already linked to the affected asset’s lifecycle record.
That connection is the difference between a monitoring dashboard and an operational system. Detection alone tells you something changed. AMG tells you which asset, who owns it, what it has done before, and what happens next.

Your IT Team Shouldn’t Find Device Problems From Users
If any of these sound familiar, your environment is being monitored by the people using it — not by software.
“Discover problems after users complain.”
A device starts degrading, but IT only finds out when an employee reports slow performance or complete failure.
“IT teams are checking devices manually.”
Your team spends valuable time checking device health instead of working on higher-value IT operations.
“Important alerts get buried.”
Your monitoring environment produces alerts, but your team struggles to identify which ones actually require immediate action.
“Monitoring and ITSM are disconnected.”
A problem is detected in one system, then someone manually creates an incident in another.
“We know a device is unhealthy, but not its history.”
Without asset context, technicians spend additional time identifying ownership, configuration, service history, and previous issues.
“Problems repeat without visibility.”
The same assets may repeatedly experience issues without giving management a clear picture of recurring performance problems.
These aren’t just monitoring problems. They become productivity, downtime, service-delivery, and operational-cost problems.
What Happens When Device Problems Go Undetected?
A device rarely becomes a business problem at the exact moment it fails. Performance degradation, resource exhaustion, availability issues, and abnormal behaviour can develop before complete failure. The earlier your IT team knows about these conditions, the more opportunity it has to investigate and respond.
This is why proactive IT asset monitoring is not a luxury layer on top of IT operations. It is the early-warning system that decides whether a small condition stays small.
Small performance issue
A threshold begins drifting. Nothing visible yet.
No detection
Nothing is watching, so nothing is recorded.
Performance degrades
The condition worsens across hours or days.
User impact
Work slows down for the people using the device.
Service desk ticket
The user reports it — long after it started.
IT investigation
A technician starts gathering context from scratch.
Potential downtime
The device or service becomes unavailable.
Lost productivity + higher IT cost
The business absorbs the cost of a late discovery.
Turn Device Health Problems Into Early Warnings — Not Business Disruptions
AMG Live Monitoring continuously watches the health and performance of your IT environment, identifies conditions that require attention, alerts the right teams, and connects actionable monitoring events with ITSM and the affected asset’s lifecycle record.

Every capability, and the business result it produces
Features are only useful if they change something for your teams. Each capability below is paired with the outcome it delivers.
Everything Your IT Team Needs to Stay Ahead of Device Problems
Each capability is written the way your team will actually experience it: the problem it removes, what AMG does, and what changes as a result.
Real-Time Device Health Monitoring
Problem
IT discovers device problems too late.
AMG
Continuously monitor device health and operational status.
Benefit
Your IT team gets earlier visibility into potentially problematic devices.
Real-Time Device Performance Monitoring

AMG
Monitor relevant device performance conditions in real time.
Benefit
Identify performance problems earlier and investigate before they escalate.
Automated IT Monitoring Alerts
Problem
IT teams can’t manually watch every device.
AMG
Automatically generate alerts when defined monitoring conditions or thresholds are reached.
Benefit
Your team focuses attention where intervention is required.
Proactive IT Asset Monitoring
Problem
Reactive IT support starts after a failure or complaint.
AMG
Continuously monitor assets instead of waiting for problems to be reported.
Benefit
Move from reactive troubleshooting toward proactive IT operations.
Automatic ITSM Incident Creation
Problem
Monitoring detects the problem, but technicians still have to manually create the ticket.
AMG
Connect actionable monitoring events to ITSM incident workflows.
Benefit
Reduce the gap between detection and action.
Asset Lifecycle Context
Problem
An alert alone doesn’t tell a technician everything they need.
AMG
Connect monitoring activity with the affected asset’s broader lifecycle information.
Benefit
Give technicians more context when investigating issues.
From Monitoring Event to ITSM Incident
AMG carries the event all the way through to a recorded asset history.
01
Device
A managed asset in your environment.
02
Health & performance monitoring
Conditions are tracked continuously.
03
Threshold or abnormal condition
A defined rule is met.
04
Automated alert
The right team is notified.
05
ITSM incident
An actionable ticket is created.
06
Affected asset identified
Owner, config and service history attach.
07
Technician investigation
Work starts with context, not questions.
08
Resolution
The condition is addressed.
09
Asset history
The event becomes permanent lifecycle record.
AMG connects monitoring with the operational workflow that follows it — which is what separates asset performance monitoring software from a monitoring dashboard.
What Does Reactive IT Monitoring Cost Your Business?
Not in invented percentages — in operational consequences your team already recognises.
- More unexpected downtime
Problems can remain invisible until they affect users or critical services.
- More reactive firefighting
IT teams spend time responding to incidents instead of preventing them.
- More manual monitoring
Technicians repeatedly check systems that software could monitor continuously.
- Slower incident creation
The gap between detecting a problem and creating an actionable ticket increases response time.
- More troubleshooting effort
Technicians may need to gather asset information manually before resolving an issue.
- Less visibility into recurring problems
Repeated issues can remain fragmented across alerts, tickets, and asset records.
The cost isn’t just the monitoring gap. It’s everything that happens because the problem was detected too late.

How AMG Differs From Traditional Device and Network Monitoring Tools
Traditional tools answer “is it up?”. Asset performance monitoring software answers “what is it, who owns it, what has it done before, and what happens next?”
Frequently Asked Questions
AMG performs real-time device performance monitoring against the conditions and thresholds you define for your environment. When a monitored condition moves outside its expected range, or an abnormal pattern is identified, AMG registers it as an actionable monitoring event rather than a line in a log.
Yes. Automated IT monitoring alerts are generated when defined monitoring conditions or thresholds are reached, and routed to the relevant team. The intent is not to produce more notifications — it is to make sure the ones that need human attention actually reach a human.
Yes. Actionable monitoring events can initiate an ITSM incident workflow automatically, so nobody has to re-key a problem from one system into another. This removes the gap between the moment a condition is detected and the moment a technician can act on it.
Yes — this is the core of AMG’s approach. Monitoring activity is connected to the affected asset’s lifecycle record, so an alert arrives with ownership, location, configuration and previous service history already attached.
By replacing manual checking and user-reported discovery with continuous monitoring. Instead of your team learning about a problem from a complaint, AMG surfaces the condition, alerts the right people and opens the incident — shifting the team’s time from firefighting toward prevention.
Yes. AMG centralizes monitoring across distributed environments, so multi-site enterprises get one view of device health rather than a separate picture per office, branch or region.
Traditional tools typically stop at detect and alert. AMG carries the event onward: identify the asset, create the incident, give the technician context, resolve, and record the activity in the asset’s history. That makes it asset performance monitoring software rather than a monitoring dashboard.
Yes. Live Monitoring is one module of the AMG platform, which combines IT asset management with ITSM. That is why monitoring events, incidents and asset lifecycle records share the same data instead of being stitched together after the fact.
