What it does? Knoa Experience and Performance Manager 4.5 (EPM 4.5) is designed to help optimize performance of end-users of corporate software applications. Knoa EPM monitors the experience the applications delivers to the end-user to pinpoint and eliminate barriers or impediments to end-user performance (bad system performance or application quality). Simultaneously, Knoa EPM captures metrics on end-user performance to identify challenges in end-user performance (knowledge gaps, incorrect use of transactions). Knoa EPM is used for alerting and proactive remediation of end-user issues (whether they are system errors, user errors or performance problems).
"How well the actual end users utilize applications, programs or even training are key to to the overall success of business process execution. An important task that should be on every IT department's agenda with regular updates for company executives."
