Cookdown: Helping you do more with SCOM

Today is a very special day for SquaredUp and, we hope, for the broader SCOM community. We are incredibly excited to announce the launch of Cookdown, a new brand dedicated to optimising SCOM with platform extensions and integrations.

Monitor, extend, integrate

Cookdown is where you’ll now find our popular community solutions such as the PowerShell MP, and it will also be home to innovative new SCOM solutions that we have been developing alongside our dashboard product.

The following solutions are available from Cookdown today:

• SCOM Essentials
  • Easy Tune (see below)
  • PowerShell Authoring
  • Community MP Catalog
• ServiceNow Connectors
  • Alerts
  • Discovery
  • Service Mapping

Easy Tune

Easy Tune is a radically simple new way to manage your SCOM overrides, enabling you to tune a management pack according to community best practices with a single click. If you’ve ever spent days explaining to teams what’s monitored on their servers and hours implementing overrides only to be told that SCOM is still too noisy, you’ll know why we created Easy Tune.

Easy Tune is provided as a free download: we believe every SCOM deployment should be tuned this way.

ServiceNow Connectors

With the changing landscape of enterprise IT operations, SCOM needs to integrate with modern systems to maintain the value of the deep infrastructure monitoring it provides. SCOM has native integrations with Microsoft System Center Service Manager (SCSM), but many customers have identified the need to better integrate with the incredibly popular ServiceNow platform.

Cookdown provides expert integration between SCOM and ServiceNow with connectors for alerts, discovery and service mapping.
