Businesses with only basic desktop, server, and device management capabilities lack the technology for widespread use of automated patch management and server monitoring, do not have a consistent plan for managing multiple operating systems, and do not have an imaging strategy or mobile device provisioning.
By optimising these areas, you can reduce the burden on your IT departments and make management of the core infrastructure more efficient and cost effective.
Challenges IT professionals face:
- Keeping the network running and available
When the network is not well monitored, problems can become disasters if they cannot be found, diagnosed and fixed. Having insight into the state of all systems and services makes this job much easier.
- Being proactive instead of reactive
Centralised administration can enable you to detect and remedy server, client and other problems proactively, before they impact network performance.
- Keeping systems up to date with the latest software patches
Security threats are a constant concern, but patching each is system time consuming and expensive. When standard versions of an operating system are used, applying software patches is much easier.
- Tracking hardware and software assets
Unused or lost hardware and software assets cost your company money. You need to know what the assets are, where they are, and how to help workers use them productively.
