Aternity
“360° Digital Experience Management for employees and customers.”
What is Aternity?
Aternity is Riverbed’s Digital Experience Management (DEM) platform, delivering visibility into how employees and customers experience digital services.
By combining Employee Experience Monitoring (EXM) and Customer Experience Monitoring (CXM), Aternity provides a unified view of application performance, device health, and end-to-end digital journeys — from the employee’s laptop to the customer’s mobile app.
Integrated into the Riverbed IQ AIOps Platform, Aternity enables IT, business, and digital teams to align on a common source of truth for digital experience, ensuring both workforce productivity and customer satisfaction.
