About Entuity

Founded in 1997, Entuity operates as a specialized provider of network performance monitoring software. The company's core business revolves around its enterprise-class, automated solution designed to provide network engineers and IT departments with deep, actionable insights into their network infrastructure. Entuity primarily serves medium to large enterprises and managed service providers (MSPs) that manage complex and often multi-vendor network environments. The business generates revenue through a simple, device-based licensing model for its on-premises software, which is considered a cost-effective approach in the market.

In August 2019, Entuity was acquired by Park Place Technologies, a global data center and networking optimization firm. This strategic acquisition integrated Entuity's software capabilities with Park Place's hardware maintenance and service offerings, creating a comprehensive solution for discovering, monitoring, and supporting IT infrastructure. The deal was Park Place's first outside of its traditional third-party maintenance category, signaling a significant expansion into network analytics and monitoring. The integration led to the development of ParkView™ Network Analytics (PVNA), which combines Entuity's strengths with Park Place's existing monitoring services.

The Entuity software platform is an all-in-one solution that provides end-to-end visibility across a network. Its key features include automated network discovery and inventory, which ensures an always up-to-date view of all network assets. The platform offers dynamic network topology mapping, providing a visual representation of the network's structure, both locally and globally. An advanced event management system reduces alert noise by correlating multiple events into single, high-level incidents, which helps IT teams focus on critical issues and reduces mean time to resolution (MTTR). The software also includes configuration management, flow monitoring, IP Address Management (IPAM), and root cause analysis capabilities, which are often sold as add-ons by competitors. Entuity supports thousands of devices from hundreds of vendors out-of-the-box and allows for easy integration with major IT service management (ITSM) frameworks like ServiceNow and BMC Remedy.
