'Managed service providers' system administrators respond to a number of change requests every day that can include provisioning new users with multiple applications, editing existing configurations for users, groups as well as answering numerous help desk phone calls - just to name a few. Today, these changes are often made manually, a process prone to errors. By automating the provisioning of users, applications, and devices, Ensim Unify significantly reduces errors and the cost of administration. Automation of rich client, IP, and mobile devices also allows users to be setup quickly and to become productive immediately. Unify Enterprise enables:
Provisioning users in seconds while eliminating errors
With Unify, managed providers can provision as many applications as required via the web management center or directly from their ERP systems. Administrators can even automate group and user provisioning via customizable templates.
Consistent provisioning policies
By managing infrastructure through a single portal, providers can ensure that policies are maintained throughout the environment.
Track and enforce capacity management
Robust resource allocations and tracking allows providers to easily manage their infrastructure: if a server or mailbox is about to reach capacity, administrators can elect to automatically receive threshold and alerts notifications. Additionally, the system can keep provisioning users to new resources based on pre-selected preferences.
Error Recovery & Roll Back
Each action taken through Ensim Unify is tracked and can easily be monitored by administrators. If an error has been made, Ensim can be restored to a previous safe state thereby maintaining transaction integrity.
Key Benefits
- Flexibility: enable speedy, secure and auditable provisioning and de-provisioning
- Repeatability: enforce reliable, consistent and repeatable processes across multiple environments
- Consistency: Gain consistency across disparate environments
