Cypress-Fairbanks Independent School District uses Ipswitch Inc’s WhatsUp Gold for real-time, comprehensive network monitoring.

Lexington, MA – WhatsUp Gold, the powerful network management software from Ipswitch Inc.’s Network Management Division, provides real-time, comprehensive network monitoring for Cypress-Fairbanks Independent School District (CFISD). CFISD, one of the fastest-growing school districts in the United States and the third-largest district in Texas, required a proactive network management solution to support its mission of implementing technology to enhance the learning and teaching process for its 13,000 employees and 96,000 students across 70 campuses.

Frederick Brenz, CFISD’s Network-WAN Telecom Manager, was impressed with WhatsUp Gold’s out of the box functionality and ability to monitor network performance proactively in real time. Implementing WhatsUp Gold has proven to be beneficial for both Brenz and CFISD’s end-user community. “For the first time in the ten years I’ve been here, we’re seeing the problems before we get the trouble calls,” Brenz explains.

As the Cypress-Fairbanks district and its corresponding technology continue to grow, WhatsUp Gold’s functionality will support its increasing complexity. Based on the success at CFISD, Brenz states, “I would think the educational market would be perfect for WhatsUp Gold – and when I find a product I like that works the way WhatsUp Gold does, I tell everyone.”
