Here at CentraStage we peddle the concept of ‘one-to-many’ IT device management. All very well in theory, somewhat harder to do in practice. So what does this mean in CentraStage’s world?
It means that wherever possible IT tasks and jobs, whether one-off or recurring, should be automated and centrally deployed. Whether it is a simple server defrag, a PC clean-up or a complex software installation, CentraStage allows you to centrally deploy and automate pretty much any IT task.
Whilst a whole host of options allow you to build in layers of sophistication, we are particularly proud of how simple we have made it (in fact the chap who writes our user manual moans that no-one ever reads it) – in essence CentraStage allows fully centralised device configuration and deployment, regardless of where the devices are and what network they are on. Critically, the system also reports back to tell you if there were any problems, and where they are, so you can manage your IT estate ‘by exception’.
Why is this important? It saves you time, it reduces downtime, it ultimately saves you money somewhere down the line. It might even save your bacon.
