Comprehensive Visualization Innovative graphics are dynamically updated as equipment is installed, decommissioned or moved within the infrastructure.

Plan with Confidence Sophisticated modeling and predictive analysis capabilities (i.e., what-if scenarios) are easily created using a drag and drop interface. The project planning features help organizations stay organized and see the impact of changes before they occur, allowing them to prioritize activities and reduce the risk associated with changes.

Know Your Capacity The unique rack timeline capabilities (offered only in Data Center Planner) offer insight into exactly when/how rack capacity (space, power, network) will be impacted by changes over time.

Know Your Inventory The single repository eliminates the need for personnel to conduct labor-intensive audits and update multiple spreadsheets, freeing up resources and improving management efficiency.

Exchange Critical Data with Other Departments The standardized API supports the exchange of data to allow businesses to share critical information across departments and enables strategic operations management and planning.

Add even more control: Integrate with DSView 4 management software. Data Center Planner can be configured to work closely with DSView 3 management software, Power Manager plug-in and the hardware portfolio Avocent has to offer.
