SmartShare bandwidth optimization appliances have a built-in Health Monitor, which can detect a range of network-related problems and automatically resolve bandwidth performance issues. When the Health Monitor detects a problem, the appliance will automatically create a service ticket directly in ConnectWise, so the MSP support team can be aware of the problem immediately. When Health Monitor detects that the problem has been resolved, it will automatically close the service ticket.

SmartShare Systems offers partners a low annual cost of ownership, including covering hardware under warranty and software updates that are appropriate for a customer subscription model.

"This integration reflects the automated nature of our products by automating both service tickets and monthly bandwidth usage reports, which makes it easier for partners to improve service to their customers," said Michel Thorsen, CEO of SmartShare Systems. "Solution providers and MSPs can deliver better quality in data transfers and IP telephony to their customers, with no extra investments in bandwidth."

"Because bandwidth management is key to better utilization, and cost savings, IT Service companies will find SmartShare Systems can enhance the quality, efficiency and profitability of VoIP installations as well as hosted applications," said Jeannine Edwards, Director, ConnectWise Community. "This integration enables our partners working with unified communications and SaaS environments another competitive advantage when delivering solutions for the Modern Office™."
