-- Greater consistency. Command bundling helps all IT and help desk staff
use the same methods to perform administration tasks.
-- Faster responsiveness. Messaging managers can delegate certain
operations to junior-level staff, which speeds user requests. Some
operations can even be made self-service.
-- Higher availability. Unify guards against common configuration errors
that can harm performance or cause servers to crash.
-- Stronger security. It also guards against configuration errors that
open exploitable security holes.
Ensim Unify automates day-to-day administration of mission-critical
infrastructure applications by allowing IT managers to delegate
administrative tasks to employees based on their role, thus freeing up IT
resources and decreasing help desk calls.
"It's a good idea to implement a framework for managing AD, Exchange, BES,
and the like, using repeatable, expert-defined processes with rollback and
task delegation," concludes Jennings in the report. "For organizations
without such a framework, Ensim offers the opportunity for organizations to
buy such a framework, probably at a lower cost than building the in-house
equivalent."
"We are pleased to have a highly respected firm such as Ferris validate our
Unify technology," said Francois Depayras, vice president of marketing and
alliances at Ensim. "The report acknowledges the compelling benefits and
impact that come from implementing such a framework, especially when it
comes to protecting and maintaining the health of an organization's IT
infrastructure."
