What is Spectrum?

Spectrum is a real-time monitoring app for web-based services provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS). It is built on the Amazon CloudWatch platform, which is basically a monitoring service that AWS provides. Spectrum functions similarly to Amazon CloudWatch, tracking metrics, monitoring logs, setting alarms, and notifying users of changes or modifications made to the AWS resources.

Unlike Amazon CloudWatch, Spectrum is built to be simple and friendly for all user types. It simplifies the process of delivering real-time information to users through its detailed dashboard. With Spectrum, users can monitor services like EC2. S3, Account Billing and every other service AWS CloudWatch supports. Users are informed in real-time whenever an issue or alarm is raised, prompting them to make prompt responses to quickly address and resolve the issue.

Overview of Spectrum Benefits

Spectrum gives you total visibility into your AWS Web-based applications and services and delivers the data you need without confusing you with complex terms and complicated data visualizations. You get a user-friendly interface that shows you the metrics in real-time.

The tool doesn’t present users with a steep learning curve as it easy to become fully acquainted with the system. Setup and deployment is a breeze and once it’s ready, Spectrum immediately monitors for AWS ClouldWatch’s alarms.

Adding members of your team to track the same account is a breeze and a functionality that AWS CloudWatch doesn’t offer. All your members need to do is provide their respective emails and have them integrated into the team and let Spectrum take care of-of the rest.

Once they are integrated, members receive a link that enables them to join the monitoring team. Users can also add multiple products to their Spectrum account and track them on a single screen.

AWS metrics and other parameters fluctuate which makes them hard to understand if you are not an expert. With Spectrum, you don’t have to be. The tool delivers all the information in a user-friendly, easy-to-understand dashboard with a green-red color approach to help you simply get the gist of your data.

If you are interested in Spectrum it could also be beneficial to analyze other subcategories of IT Management Software listed in our base of SaaS software reviews.

It is essential to realize that virtually no service in the IT Management Software category is going to be a perfect solution that can match all the needs of various company types, sizes and industries. It may be a good idea to read a few Spectrum IT Management Software reviews first as some services might excel only in a very small group of applications or be created with a really specific type of industry in mind. Others might work with an intention of being simple and intuitive and therefore lack complex functionalities desired by more experienced users. There are also solutions that focus on a broad group of users and give you a complex feature base, but that in most cases comes at a more expensive cost of such a solution. Ensure you're aware of your requirements so that you get a solution that has all the features you look for.
