From InSight to Optimiser+: A Smarter Way to Elevate Your NonStop Environment

For years, TCM InSight has helped organisations understand their NonStop systems with clarity and precision. But as the needs of system managers evolve — and as the demand for continuous improvement grows — it’s time for the tool itself to evolve.

Introducing TCM Optimiser+: the next generation of NonStop system assessment.

This isn’t just a name change. It’s a shift in mindset. A move from fault-finding to future-building. From audit to optimisation.

Why the Change?

We listened. System managers told us that while InSight was valuable, the language around it sometimes felt like a judgement. Red flags. Broken files. Risk ratings. Even when the findings were constructive, the framing could feel critical.

That’s not what we intended — and it’s not what Optimiser+ delivers.

“We have observed how Nonstop customers can benefit from having a tool that, separate to all other middleware, utilities and subsystems in daily use, independently validates their presence in terms of resources used while delivering an expected level of service.”

Optimiser+ is built to empower, not expose. It highlights strengths, validates good practice, and identifies high‑value opportunities to refine and elevate your system. It’s a collaborative optimisation cycle, not a compliance checklist.

What’s New in Optimiser+?

While the core process remains fast, efficient, and minimally invasive, Optimiser+ introduces a more positive, future‑focused experience:

• A new rating model: Enhance → Improve → Excel
• A redesigned report structure focused on opportunity, not fault
• A visual optimisation loop that reinforces continuous improvement
• A brand identity that reflects clarity, confidence, and partnership

And of course, it’s still delivered by TCM, the NonStop experts, in partnership with HPE.

Why System Managers Love It

Optimiser+ is designed with system managers in mind. It helps you:

• Validate your work with independent assurance
• Justify investment in training, tooling, or upgrades
• Communicate clearly with leadership using structured, non‑technical language
• Identify enhancements that align with modern best practice
• Celebrate strengths and build on what’s already working well

It’s not about what’s wrong. It’s about what’s next.

Real-World Impact

In recent engagements, Optimiser+ has helped:

• A system manager secure funding for a backup system after validating DR gaps
• A NonStop team modernise their application stack to attract new developers
• A data centre manager transition into their role with confidence and clarity
• A leadership team align their NonStop environment with wider compliance goals

Each case began with Optimiser+. Each ended with stronger systems and stronger teams.
