InteQ Introduces First On-Demand Solution Designed to Unlock the Full Potential of Customers’ HP OpenView Deployments
Solution helps HP OpenView clients worldwide accelerate time-to-value, improve return on investment and maintain control of staff and infrastructure costs
Bedford, Mass., March 27, 2006:
InteQ Corporation today announced the first on-demand solution designed to rapidly enable HP OpenView clients worldwide to extend the value of their existing HP OpenView investments. By providing extensive event correlation, InteQ On-Demand Solution for HP OpenView helps enterprise customers extract more meaningful information from their HP OpenView implementations, and release the full potential of their investments. This information encompasses precisely targeted and correlated alerts, and enhanced reporting that helps enterprises respond more quickly to business drivers including:
7/24 visibility into the performance and availability of IT infrastructures;
return on investment for HP OpenView implementations;
Spend IT dollars for the right business reason
demands to reduce ongoing IT support costs; and
compliance with governance objectives such as Sarbanes-Oxley.
Meet Compliance Standards with Enhanced Reporting
In the past, IT organizations used a number of point solutions to manage their network, server and application environments. Today, stringent compliance standards are interrelated to a well-integrated infrastructure monitoring solution and are not mutually exclusive. Successful HP OpenView implementations serve as a strong foundation for developing and executing a strong compliance strategy in addition to providing greater visibility and control over IT assets. InteQ On-Demand Solution for HP OpenView helps bring enterprises to the desired level of visibility in a quick, efficient and cost-effective manner.
“The InteQ On-Demand Solution plugs into existing HP OpenView implementations to enable enterprises to quickly unlock the full value in a very cost-effective manner,” said Santhana Krishnan, co-founder, chairman and chief executive officer, InteQ Corporation. “Our commitment to providing innovative infrastructure management solutions based on HP OpenView is unwavering, and this solution is a direct result of listening to our customers and partners.”
The solution is designed to allow implementations in three to four weeks with the ability to produce benefits that can normally take many months of extensive planning and dedicated resources to achieve. To engage the solution, enterprises select from a suite of modules designed to meet the organization’s specific business requirements. Modules include best practice monitoring metrics; event correlation; reporting; and problem identification, diagnostics and resolution. To create the modules, InteQ relied on its 11 years of experience in IT infrastructure management and its status as an HP Gold Business Partner and HP OpenView Authorized Services Integrator.
“InteQ is an HP OpenView Elite Partner with a decade-long track record as a consistent and valuable resource to enterprise customers,” said Scott Strubel, director of Software Partners - Americas, HP. “With the InteQ On-Demand Solution for HP OpenView enterprises can better achieve their IT service management objectives by more fully utilizing the powerful capabilities of their existing HP OpenView implementations.”
Accelerate Time to Value
“For years, implementations of Network and Systems Management (NSM) solutions were well intentioned but woefully inadequate,” said Eric Goodness, Research Vice President at Gartner. “Gartner research shows that these implementations failed for two reasons. First, a lack of resources to address the complexity of the integration, and second, a lack of cultural affinity to use the solution because tactical day-to-day firefighting creates an IT culture that is reactive and anarchic.”
Goodness continued, “Any solution that helps organizations become proactive and accelerates the ROI of NSM investments is of great significance to enterprises. Established infrastructure management solution providers have a great opportunity to provide value beyond cost savings, as they link NSM benefits to strategic business drivers such as service level management, operational efficiencies and IT governance.”
InteQ On-Demand Solution for HP OpenView is available worldwide through InteQ. Resellers interested in selling the solution can contact InteQ directly.
