San Francisco, CA, April 05, 2010 -- Virtosoftware has released a new Microsoft SharePoint web part for monitoring currently run workflows - Virto Workflow Monitor, compatible with both SP 2007 and SP 2010.

Virtosoftware expands its SharePoint web-parts line by offering a new web part Virto SharePoint Workflow Status Monitor for monitoring running SharePoint workflows. A simple and effective component, which is fully compatible with both SharePoint 2007 and SharePoint 2010, allows administrator to be fully informed about running workflows and related issues and errors.

Microsoft SharePoint is a flexible solution that allows for organizing effective team work and resolving lots of management issues. Standard SharePoint-based solutions include dozens of interrelated business processes, while more complex solutions are used to have hundreds and even thousands of them. In such a case the major administrator’s task is to provide stable functioning of all the processes without any failure and, thus, reliability and sustainability of the whole solution.

Administrator can check the status of a process manually, simply opening each item and the process within it. But to have the whole picture, the administrator would prefer to have a single list of all running business processes and their statues with convenient tools for batch operations such as a refreshing or termination. Such a list and tools are provided by new Virtosoftware web part - Virto SharePoint Workflow Status Monitor.

Virto Workflow Monitor displays all the workflows running on the site, provides information about the source list and item of a running workflow, allows for quick switch between the list view and a workflow details view, generates a number of workflow related reports, highlights workflows with errors and provides the administrator with the tools for workflow and data management such as sorting, filtering and group operations.

The web part can be purchased separately for $255.
