Alerting & Escalation

From Alert to Resolution

Defined processes ensure alerts are detected, prioritized, and routed to the agreed owner.

  1. 01

    Detection

    WZ-IT proactively monitors the agreed systems 24/7 and identifies relevant deviations.

  2. 02

    Notification

    Relevant alerts are prioritized by severity and routed to the agreed contact.

  3. 03

    Response

    If WZ-IT response is included, our operations team analyzes the incident and initiates countermeasures according to the service level.

  4. 04

    Resolution & Report

    After resolution, the tiers with response include an incident report with root cause analysis and prevention measures.

What is monitoring as a service?

Monitoring as a service means WZ-IT proactively monitors the agreed systems 24/7 and keeps the defined alert path operational. You receive an ongoing service instead of another tool your team must maintain.

Operating models

From monitoring to server operations

The scope determines whether alerts go to your team or WZ-IT additionally takes on response and server operations.

Monitoring

from €79.90 / month

We proactively monitor the agreed systems 24/7. Relevant alerts go directly to your team; technical response remains with you in this model.

  • 24/7 proactive monitoring
  • Agreed health signals and services
  • Alerts to your team

Monitoring + Response

by scope

We see the alert and act: analysis, agreed initial measures, and escalation within a defined response time.

  • Defined response times
  • Analysis and agreed initial measures
  • Escalation and documentation

Linux server operations

from €149.90 / month

Patching, hardening, backup management, and monitoring with response. Your servers remain with your provider while we take over the agreed operating scope.

  • Updates & security hardening
  • Backup management; restore tests by scope
  • 24/7 P1 option & SLA

Monitoring-only starts at €79.90. Management of existing Linux servers starts at €149.90; volume pricing and service levels are available in the server-management calculator.

Service levels

Five service levels for different operating requirements

Essential, Business and Priority apply during defined service windows. Production and Critical add round-the-clock response to P1 incidents. Business and higher levels include a monthly operations allowance for planned technical work.

For less time-critical systems, staging and internal applications.

The flexible operations allowance applies to planned work during regular service hours and expires at month end. Operations, monitoring, backups, maintenance and updates within the agreed scope do not reduce it. Additional and incident work costs €120 net per hour in 6-minute increments during regular service hours and €240 net per started hour outside them.

Connected operations

Operate cloud, data centre, and on-premises as one system

A managed service can be the entry point. When additional sites, clouds, or platforms are added, they join the same operating model through documented network paths, responsibilities, and service levels.

Operating locations

Cloud, bare metal, Proxmox, and on-premises systems remain where data, performance, and control require them.

Private connectivity

NetBird, site-to-site links, and existing enterprise networks connect approved services through controlled paths.

Workloads

Linux servers, open-source applications, Proxmox, App Nodes, and local AI are designed as dependent system components.

Operating model

Monitoring, updates, backups, documentation, and incident response follow one coordinated responsibility and service-level model.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the most important questions

Monitoring-only starts at €79.90 net per customer environment and month. It includes 24/7 proactive monitoring and alerts to your team; incident response by WZ-IT is not included. Management of an existing Linux server including response starts separately at €149.90 net per month.

The scope can include Linux and Windows servers, Proxmox clusters, container environments, network devices, databases, and web applications. We agree the relevant health signals and services before onboarding.

Notification follows the agreed monitoring scope and alert path. In tiers with response, our team takes ownership of qualified incidents within the contractually defined response time.

Yes. We assess the existing scope and bring the agreed systems into the ongoing service. How the existing environment is incorporated is clarified in the technical assessment.

Processing in German data centers is available for the monitoring service provided by WZ-IT. Data paths, alert channels, and integrations are documented for the specific environment; a DPA is available.

Standard hosting often includes only basic checks such as ping and HTTP for the provider's own platform. Our monitoring can additionally cover infrastructure metrics, applications, security events, and external availability. Whether alerts go to your team or WZ-IT responds is explicitly defined in the operating model.

You receive an ongoing 24/7 service rather than just software. WZ-IT proactively monitors the agreed scope and ensures notifications reach your team. WZ-IT response is agreed separately; monitoring-only starts at €79.90 net per customer environment and month.

WZ-IT moved our studio infrastructure from decentralised individual devices to a central platform: every site is securely connected via VPN, new devices are onboarded automatically and an entire site is provisioned from a template, without manual steps on location. What impressed me most is the breadth and depth of their knowledge: Timo and Robin are not a typical IT provider who sets up a server and leaves. The two of them think their way into highly complex infrastructure and software topics, work through every requirement we put in front of them, and build networking, provisioning and operations so that everything fits together in the end. WZ-IT is an excellent partner for complex software, network and architecture projects.

WZ-IT provided very competent support in implementing our server and virtualization infrastructure. As part of the project, a Proxmox-based virtualization environment was set up along with a virtual machine for our application systems. Additionally, a structured backup concept was implemented. A particular focus was on security: the setup of a VPN tunnel and the clean implementation of encryption and access concepts were professionally executed. The structured consulting as well as the reliable and swift implementation deserve special mention. We are very satisfied with the services provided and are happy to recommend WZ-IT.

Communication with WZ-IT was open, friendly and professional from the very beginning. Mr. Wevelsiep and Mr. Zins responded to every one of our questions patiently, promptly and respectfully, and contributed their own suggestions and good ideas on how to modernize our server infrastructure and adapt it even better to our needs. Throughout, WZ-IT consistently kept our need for data sovereignty and GDPR compliance in mind. Even short-notice adjustments and change requests from our side were implemented quickly and patiently and integrated consistently into the overall concept. From planning to the final handover, every step was documented transparently and comprehensively - so if a provider change should ever become necessary, the documentation would let us onboard a successor into our infrastructure very quickly. We are extremely satisfied with WZ-IT and hope to continue working together for a long time.
