Network Monitoring
If your business provides any type of service to customers that is dependent on your servers, applications and network to be up and running, then monitoring is important to you. Even if you are not providing any client-facing service, your employees' and your own productivity will be hit hard if your servers or network go down. Ideally you want to take proactive maintenance steps and prevent them from going down. At the very least, you want to be alerted to any failure immediately, so that your team can attend to it quickly.
