Harry Potter fans will immediately recognize Fawkes as the name of Dumbledore’s pet phoenix. When our Director of Product Management, Nicole Pauls, suggested Fawkes as our TriGeo SIM Version 5.0 project codename we were quick to approve - and appreciate the significance.
“Fawkes is a phoenix, Harry. Phoenixes burst into flame when it is time for them to die and are reborn from the ashes. Fascinating creatures, phoenixes. They can carry immensely heavy loads, their tears have healing powers, and they make highly faithful pets.”
We knew that TriGeo SIM Version 5.0 represented a revolutionary new design - one that’s built on nearly a decade of experience, leverages new technologies, incorporates sophisticated design and delivers unique functionality.
Customers loved our original interface. They appreciated its form, function and simplicity, and it’s deployed on literally thousands of desktops - helping IT professionals monitor and proactively defend their networks. We also knew that there was much more that we could offer and we had a tough decision to make…
Do we extend the current design or start fresh?
We opted to invest in a completely new user interface and user experience.
In an economy that’s been characterized as the “worst since the Great Depression,” this was not an easy decision. We committed millions of dollars and countless hours to designing and building our new console, and it’s just one of many enhancements that make TriGeo SIM Version 5.0 a game-changer in SIEM technology.
With the official release of TriGeo SIM Version 5.0 tomorrow, a phoenix will rise and true to its name; it’s capable of carrying enormous event loads, incorporates network-healing powers and is destined to become a valued and trusted member of IT teams around the world.
