AdventNet Upgrades Desktop Central to Support Managing Desktops in WAN -- Branch Offices & Roaming Users

PLEASANTON, CA, Aug 05 (MARKET WIRE) --
AdventNet Inc. today announced the new release of Desktop Central, a
Windows Desktop Management software, which helps enterprises in managing
their desktops spread across the globe from a central location. Now, it
is easy to patch, deploy software, take control of remote computers, and
manage assets of all the branch office computers. The new release helps
administrators to secure and standardize desktops from a single point
irrespective of their physical location, thus saving huge time and effort.

Some of the highlights of this release include:

-- Central management of desktops across branches and of roaming users.
-- Uses secured communication via HTTPS/SSL -- No dedicated VPN
connection is required
-- Enables users to make help desk requests directly from their computers
without requiring them to send an email or by logging into the help desk
application

"We have more than 250 users with 7 branches. It was a difficult task
to support those users desktop by a limited number of technicians. Using
Desktop Central's WAN solution it has become easy to support the users
across all branches for trouble shooting, software installation, asset
management, or patch management -- it is like instant support to the
users, which helps our IT department keep our users smiling. Now we can
support our users instantly whether they are in Head office, branch
office or in roaming," says Akthar Gerab National Enterprises, a
satisfied customer.

"Adding support for managing desktops in WAN is a significant milestone as
it helps enterprises to avoid having multiple instances of Desktop Central
thereby reducing the total cost of ownership," said Mathivanan
Venkatachalam, Director - Product Development at AdventNet. "As many
organizations have a global presence for their business needs, the new
release of Desktop Central will help them to manage their desktops with
ease," he added.
