Vector Networks Launches PC-Duo Enterprise, a Desktop Management
Suite with Web-based Capabilities
PC-Duo Enterprise Can Be Deployed Within Days- Not Months Like
Traditional Tools
Duluth, Georgia and Tamworth, England - April 30, 2002
Vector Networks Inc. launches PC-Duo Enterprise, an integrated suite
of desktop management software that provides centralized desktop management.
Designed to run out-of-the box, PC-Duo Enterprise is easy to implement
and can be deployed within days, not months like traditional systems
management tools. PC-Duo Enterprise offers an enterprise framework
without the complexity or high price tag of other products in the
market.
PC-Duo Enterprise has a unique, modular architecture allowing IT organizations
the flexibility to purchase and implement functional modules as required.
The suite includes: Inventory Management, Software Metering, Software
Distribution, Diagnostics, Remote Control, and Web-based Help Desk
Issue Tracking modules.
Milind Govekar, VP & Research Director, Gartner comments,
"It is important today to keep the IT infrastructure up and running
to prevent loss of revenue for organizations where IT and business
processes are increasingly becoming inseparable. However, IT infrastructure
components such as servers, databases or desktops have a habit of
failing, so organizations should ensure that they invest in technologies
which help diagnose the root-cause of the problem quickly to restore
business process availability to minimize the cost of downtime."
PC-Duo Enterprise Modules:
Inventory Management centrally audits software and hardware
asset information enterprise-wide using multiple interrogation techniques
for unrivalled accuracy. Customer surveys reveal that consistent usage
of PC-Duo Inventory Management increased productivity of audit and
inventory management staff by up to 90% and virtually eliminated non-license
compliance.
Software Metering identifies unused and disabled applications.
By redistributing unused licenses and renewing maintenance only for
those licenses still in use, IT organizations save money. Additionally,
by highlighting usage patterns with its detailed reporting, PC-Duo
Software Metering supports training and help desk initiatives and
allows IT organizations to better forecast future software requirements.
Software Distribution enables staff to install new software applications
and updates throughout the network within minutes, eliminating the
need to visit the networked PCs and servers. PC-Duo Software Distribution
allows IT organizations to save up to 90% of the time spent installing
software.
Diagnostics automatically protects and restores critical desktop
applications, collects configuration diagnostics and performs change
analysis. By comparing system and software configurations in real-time,
critical applications can be restored within minutes, minimizing work
disruptions and maximizing help desk efficiency.
Remote Control enables IT organizations to remotely control
any Windows PC or server via LAN, WAN or Internet. It offers an industry-leading
feature set designed for help desk support, training and telecommuting.
PC-Duo Remote Control allows IT organizations to increase help desk
service quality by improving response times and increasing first-call
problem resolution.
HelpDesk is a Web-based system that centralizes issue and call
tracking for the help desk department. PC-Duo HelpDesk deployment
costs are minimal and allow access from any browser, anywhere, any
time. PC-Duo HelpDesk works like a Windows application and dynamically
updates its interface. It is fully customizable to meet corporate
needs.
