Synchronisation has in the past been neglected when Service Level Agreements between operators have been defined.  However, an increasing number of SLA’s are being written that include key synchronisation features in both traditional and NGN networks.

In order to implement any meaningful SLA it is important to be able to continuously monitor the key performance parameters and be able to compare them with ease to the agreed, defined pass/fail criteria.  SyncWatch Standalone and SyncWatch Managed can both be used to provide a benchmark of performance prior to setting performance thresholds. SyncWatch Managed is ideal for providing a platform for the long term monitoring and reporting of performance.
