ON Command CCM (Comprehensive Client Manager), the industry's leading open and scalable desktop management system, allows the Tivoli Management Agent to be installed on pristine PCs for configuration as managed endpoints in a Tivoli Enterprise environment. "Bundling the Tivoli Management Agent with ON Command CCM demonstrates our ability to distribute sophisticated desktop solutions in a simple, single step," said Herman DeLatte, president and CEO of ON Technology. "Our partnership with Tivoli Systems furthers our mission to provide customers with enterprise solutions that combine high levels of efficiency and productivity with ease of use and manageability." "Our goal is to make systems management as easy as possible," said Mike O'Rourke, vice president, Enterprise Management Solutions, Tivoli Systems Inc.
