ManageEngine has incorporated its AI assistant Zia into its IT analytics solution, Analytics Plus. Zia interprets questions asked via text or voice and generates visualizations and offers smart suggests based on search keywords.
According to ManageEngine, users will be able to train Zia to understand terms specific to their organization.
“IT managers need access to instant insights that they can continue to refine and drill down into, without relying on database administrators. Zia makes it possible for non-technical users to analyze data without having to write SQL queries or programs, saving precious time that can be used to focus on improving the quality of IT services offered,” said Rakesh Jayaprakash, product manager at ManageEngine. “In the future, we look forward to expanding the analytical capabilities of Zia to perform seamless data blending and provide automated insights.”
