industry-leading desktop management solution
ON Technology Corporation (NASDAQ:ONTC - news) and Klein Technologies, Inc. (KTI), a leading provider of enterprise-wide IT solutions for commercial and federal customers, today announced that ON Command CCM(tm) is now available on KTI's General Services Administration (GSA) Schedule for purchase by U.S. Government agencies. ON Command CCM is the leading desktop management and continuous configuration solution for enterprise networks. ON Command CCM allows KTI and its agent partners to accelerate strategic initiatives such as new PC roll-outs, operating system migrations, Y2K remediations, and outsourced seat management and Help Desk operations.
ON Command CCM allows IT organizations to manage explosive PC growth rates and deliver a higher quality of service while minimizing the need for scarce resources such as highly-skilled technical personnel. ON Command CCM's unique network booting technology allows software to be automatically installed and configured on multiple PCs simultaneously over high-speed networks, from centralized UNIX and NT servers which can be managed over LANs, WANs, and the Internet.
''Our partnership with ON Technology allows us to deliver reliable and advanced desktop management solutions to the Federal government,'' said Ken Napier, KTI's vice president for business development. ''ON Command CCM's continuous configuration capabilities support the trend towards desktop standardization while allowing a high degree of customization and user profile management that has never been possible in the past. This allows IT organizations to more efficiently manage constantly-changing environments in the face of critical shortages of skilled technical resources.''
KTI is an information technology systems integrator (SI) providing technology and services to both commercial and federal markets since 1991. The company was awarded the Virginia Fast 50 Five Year Growth Award in 1998, and the National Technology Fast 500 Award and Washington Technology Fast 50 Five Year Growth Award in 1997.
''ON Command CCM offers PC configuration management capabilities that will help government agencies manage the dynamic nature of their networked PC environments,'' said Roy Sanford, vice president marketing and alliances for ON Technology. ''Through the use of ON Technology's products government agencies are now capable of greatly reducing the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of their PCs.'' biz.yahoo.com |
