eiPower Saver Solution
Symantec’s “Magic Quadrant” product investment just got much more valuable. eiPower Saver Solution is heavily integrated into the Symantec Management Platform, so customers do not have to stand up a whole new architecture for a point solution. Use your existing Symantec/Altiris server, network, and architecture to leverage significant cost savings. Administrators can use the same familiar policy techniques, reporting methods, and roll out policies. eiPower Saver Solution was developed with the Symantec Development Kit, which means it looks feels, and acts like any other Symantec solution.
List of integration points
Forrester study: “59% of IT Managers want to buy from their CMS vendor, 13% from their security vendor. 72% on all Symantec users prefer to buy their power management from their CMS vendor”*, here is why:
-
Integration means savings - no need to stand up a new architecture, buy a new server, retrain employees, or learn a new GUI for a point solution. Reduce the complexity of your IT environment by using a proven, mature Symantec Management Platform integrated solution.
-
If administrator enabled, eiPower Saver Solution scans the SWD and Patch job queues and inserts a Wake on Demand entry to bring the PC out of low power mode (standby or hibernate) 5 minutes before the jobs is scheduled to run. This makes Patch and Software Delivery jobs 100% effective.
-
eiPower Saver Solution optionally uses Inventory Solution for make/model information to keep reporting data consistent.
-
Have Symantec Asset Management Solution? eiPower Saver Solution integrates by using existing location and Asset Owner information. Integration makes eiPower Saver Solution set up even faster!
-
Why keep PCs on 24x7 to ensure remote access? eiPower Saver Solution uses Remote Power On (RPO) to securely power on or bring PCs out of low power mode without using WOL. RPO uses existing Asset Ownership or Primary User to present list of PCs user logs on to or owns. Other Symantec Management Platform integration includes built in WOL to contact filters of PCs without Task Server.
-
Have Symantec IT Analytics or other SQL Reporting Server applications? eiPower Saver Solution uses the same SQL Reporting Server for graph reports. Nothing new to buy, nothing new to learn. eiPower Saver Solution does not require ITA for graph reporting.
-
100% Compliance? Symantec End Point Anti-Virus (SEP) is the most popular Anti-Virus in the industry. Make your updates and scans 100% compliant by using eiPower Saver Solution scheduled policies to create a maintenance window. Integrated with FREE Symantec Endpoint Protection Integration Console (SEPIC) will make your updates and scans 100% effective – exactly what you want to hear from your security company.
