A modern systems observability & alerting platform: lightweight, agentless, and API-first. None of the weight of a 2000s NMS. Going open source in 2027.
An observability engine designed this decade. In active development since January 2024, with multiple sprints every quarter.
The data model adapts to your environment. The model fits your data — not the other way around.
Every microservice in the Guardare platform goes open source in 2027, alongside the new Admin Web UI.
Competing platforms charge $20–24 per device, per month — a huge meter that runs as you grow. The entire platform goes open source in 2027: free to run, at any scale.
Deep observability from connectivity backhaul to cloud resources, collected via API, SNMP, Remote PowerShell, and bash.
Performance observed across all links.
Full-stack observability for switches, routers, NextGen firewalls, controllers, and access points.
Every sensor, controller, and edge device — watched without an agent.
Unified health metrics for AWS, Azure, Microsoft 365 tenants, Google Workspace, and hybrid resources.
Access control, video surveillance, and digital displays under one watch.
Guardare was born inside a working MSP; VistaTech runs its own managed-services practice on it every day. The same engine serves a fleet of customers or just one: yours.
“ Trust is built on observability. Guardare provides the lens through which complex infrastructure becomes clear, actionable, and resilient. — VISTATECH ENGINEERING STANDARDS
Event and auto-clear notifications for continuous incident response. VistaTech runs PagerDuty for Guardare Managed Services.
Direct, bi-directional ticket integration. Events Director opens, updates, and resolves tickets automatically, with admin-selectable options controlling exactly how ticket flow behaves.
External health monitoring of the Guardare microservices themselves: observing the software that is observing the infrastructure.
YAML configuration versioning and upgrade management through the Guardare Helper. GitOps-driven provisioning and incident management.
Guardare is built to be inspected, trusted, and run on your own terms. The full platform is planned to go open source in 2027, alongside the new Admin Web UI.
Standards-based and built on open foundations, so it fits the stack you already run — no black box, no proprietary dead ends.
No license fees and no per-device tax. Your costs stay predictable as you grow, with no surprise bills at scale.
The full platform is planned to release as open source in 2027, alongside the new Admin Web UI — yours to run, study, and adapt.
Guardare is built and maintained by VistaTech, Inc. in downtown Greensboro, North Carolina, USA.
