Clarus Systems: End-to-End VoIP Services Management Clarus software can actually seize control of a phone and use it to test system capabilities, perhaps causing hundreds of phones to simultaneously dial into a conference bridge and test for two-way audio. Clarus software monitors packet latency, jitter and loss and can set MOS alerts to notify the system administrator if an individual call or the average of calls drops below a definable level, e.g., 3.5. It can also alert on blocked or dropped calls, or unexpected changes to the CallManager configuration, sending alert information into existing network management systems. The Clarus solution also can assist a snifter or probe in deep dive diagnostics, getting as granular as an individual PRI or handset. |

Clarus Systems Acknowledges Debt to CIPTUG Brendan Reidy, President and CEO of Clarus Systems, gives a lot of credit to the Clarus product development team but, at the same time, offers plenty to the end user community—most particularly the CIPTUG membership. "Clarus enjoys a highly collaborative relationship with the Cisco end user community, thanks in large part to CIPTUG. As an independent organization, established and funded by end users and existing solely for their benefit, CIPTUG provides an honest and open forum for the informal exchange of ideas and experiences." From my not-so-lofty perch here at Telecom Reseller, it seems as though the respect and admiration equation is well-balanced. ClarusIPC Plus+ won the "Board of Directors Choice" award in the Application "Bake-Off" at the CIPTUG 2008 Annual Conference. Previously, Clarus was awarded "Best Tools" category in an Application "Bake-Off" at the CIPTUG 2007 Annual Conference. |
