Attendees got a walkthrough of its capabilities, including filtering, search, and seamless integration with existing views. The session showcased how Resource Explorer is simplifying resource management, enabling faster decisions, and improving team collaboration across projects. Key Highlights ⭐ Full walkthrough of Resource Explorer and how it surfaces assets across environments with contextual filtering. ⭐ Demonstrated advanced filtering by service, environment, and tags, with a live build-out of customized views. ⭐ Previewed saved views and access controls, allowing teams to share curated resource data easily. ⭐ Emphasized the improved performance and responsiveness of the new UI compared to legacy tools. ⭐ Highlighted how Resource Explorer integrates with deployment workflows, helping teams act on insights quickly. Q&A Q: Can you export filtered views from Resource Explorer? A: Not yet, but it’s on the roadmap and the team is actively gathering feedback for future enhancements.

LogicMonitor's new Resource Explorer is a game-changing addition to its IT infrastructure monitoring platform. This powerful feature gives users a comprehensive, graphical view of their entire IT ecosystem, allowing for quick identification and resolution of issues across complex environments. Resource Explorer's intuitive interface presents devices as color-coded hexagons, grouped and filtered based on normalized properties such as provider, resource type, and region. This visual approach to resource management enables IT teams to spot patterns and troubleshoot problems more efficiently than ever before. By allowing users to create custom views and share filters, teams can collaborate more effectively and respond to issues faster. For example, if an AWS region experiences problems, Resource Explorer can instantly highlight affected resources, dramatically reducing mean time to repair (MTTR). This feature is precious for organizations with hybrid or multi-cloud environments, providing a unified view of resources across different providers and locations. Resource Explorer's flexibility empowers IT teams to maintain optimal service, application, and workflow health. The ability to quickly group and visualize resources based on various criteria gives teams unprecedented control over their infrastructure. Whether managing on-premises systems, cloud resources, or a combination of both, Resource Explorer provides the visibility and insights needed to ensure peak performance and rapid issue resolution. This innovative tool is set to revolutionize how IT professionals monitor and manage their complex, modern infrastructures. Want to know more about Resource Explorer?
