The fact that we can easily have webhooks created in Nexthink to be able to receive alerts directly in our Teams is one of the standout features that I find in Nexthink. Then we can get the data from Nexthink via data exporter to Azure data lake, and we can go 90 days back, which is also one of the cool features that we as an organization find useful because we eliminate the limitation of retaining data. Nexthink retains data for I believe 30 days or 60 days, so we can go even beyond that. The other integration and recent addition of AI is quite nice. Spark, the latest AI agent that Nexthink is introducing, is also a cool feature. In totality, I find Nexthink very useful, and we as an organization find Nexthink very useful.
Webhooks are a very underrated feature that Nexthink supports because if you utilize webhooks properly, you will be able to get your alerts in real-time in your Teams or wherever you would like to receive it. ServiceNow Amplify is also one of the underrated features because it is a browser-based extension that you configure, and the configuration is also pretty straightforward.
Our device outage is very reduced with the help of the great monitoring that Nexthink has to offer, which is the major thing. Our incident management team can utilize their time with other issues or other burning issues that are happening in the organization. On the endpoint side, we would say that we are much more covered than we were earlier. We have eliminated some major outages, issues, and impacts and have reduced them with the help of Nexthink.
Initially, for every single outage, we were not aware of what exactly the numbers were and how many devices were impacted. We had to spend time finding out how many devices were impacted. Now, we simply go to Nexthink. We do not even have to write the NQL query, which is the best part. You do not need to know Nexthink query language. You can use Nexthink Assist to help you with that, and with a single query, you can find all the devices which are impacted by the outage, and that much amount of time is saved from gathering data on the impacted devices. You are saving time in gathering the data, and then applying fixes is also quite seamless via remote action, so you are saving time there as well. From two to three days of time that we used to invest in gathering the details of the impacted devices and then two to three days again for applying the fixes, that time has been substantially reduced with the help of Nexthink.
