Blue View Sentinel

See every device on your network, from one place you own.

Blue View Sentinel watches your switches, access points, servers and everything else on the network, keeps their logs, and tells you when something needs attention. It runs on your own server, and nothing about it depends on a vendor's cloud.

Running today at an early-adopter school district. General availability planned for 2027.

From a blinking light to an answer

What Sentinel does with every device it can reach.

Stage 01

Discover

Reads the address and port tables your switches already keep, so every wired, wireless and virtual device is listed with where it is plugged in, and a new one is announced when it appears.

Stage 02

Watch

Polls health and traffic every minute: CPU, memory, temperature, fans, power, every port. Values it does not have are shown as missing, never guessed.

Stage 03

Alert

One message when something breaks, not fifty. A switch that goes down is reported once, with the devices behind it marked as affected.

Stage 04

Investigate

History charts, every switch port, the device's own logs and its problems in one view, searchable when you are tracing an outage.

Stage 05

Automate

Agentic tools and your own systems connect through a published API and an MCP server. They can look within what you allow; anything that changes something asks a person first.

Why Sentinel

Vendor-independent

Built on the open standards network equipment already speaks. Switch from one vendor to another and your monitoring stays.

Runs where you choose

On a server in your building, or run for you by Blue View. The same software either way.

Under your name

Your organization's name, logo and colors on the dashboard, the sign-in and the alert emails.

Evidence, not guesses

Every finding lists the measurements behind it. No invented health percentages and no placeholder numbers.

Talk to us

Tell us roughly how many switches, access points and servers you run, and what watches them today. We will tell you honestly whether Sentinel fits.

We usually reply within a working day.

Built on open standards

Sentinel talks to equipment the way the equipment already speaks: SNMP, syslog and OpenTelemetry in, a published REST API and an MCP server out. Your data stays in a database you control, and you can export it to other tools whenever you want. Nothing about it depends on one switch vendor's cloud.
