Ensim Announces Support for Google Apps With Launch of New Unify Service Manager

SANTA CLARA, CA, Feb 03 (MARKET WIRE) --
Ensim Corporation, the leading provider of change management, user
provisioning and access control software, today announced support for
Google Apps(TM) with the release of a new connector for its award-winning
Ensim Unify Enterprise Edition. Ensim Unify Service Manager for Google
Apps enables enterprises to seamlessly manage both their on-premise and
cloud environments through a single management console.

"Many organizations are actively pursuing cloud-based computing
initiatives in an effort to lower IT costs and improve flexibility," said
Scott Young, vice president of marketing and product management at Ensim
Corporation. "For most of these organizations, it's not an 'all or
nothing' proposition. They need to be able to smoothly integrate
cloud-based services with their existing IT infrastructure. Our Ensim
Unify Service Manager for Google Apps removes the complexity and overhead
costs associated with managing two distinct environments, and instead
allows peaceful coexistence while ensuring compliance with existing
security, access control, and compliance audit requirements."

Using Ensim Unify Service Manager for Google Apps, IT administrators can
seamlessly, provision, de-provision, manage access and configure Google
Apps accounts for any user within their existing Microsoft Active
Directory and Exchange infrastructure -- all from a single web-based
management console. The new connector reduces administrative overhead
costs by allowing IT administrators to extend role-based administration
to other groups from help desk staff and human resources all the way to
end users. Tasks such as email list and nickname management can be
delegated to end users, allowing them to set up owners for each email
list and delegate membership management to the respective owners.

"Like many academic institutions, we have Active Directory, but we are
also implementing infrastructure using Google Apps, and would like to
simplify the management of this mixed environment," said Umesh Reddy,
Manager for Systems Team at Jackson State University. "Ensim Unify
Service Manager for Google Apps provides a more efficient way to meet our
students' and faculty's IT demands because it removes the risk and burden
of having to make manual updates, while letting them manage certain tasks
on their own in one place."

The key features of Ensim Unify Service Manager for Google Apps include
the ability for system administrators to configure IT policy including:

-- Suspend users
-- Restore users
-- Reset passwords
-- Manage nicknames and distribution lists

Self-service options available for Google Apps include:

-- Management of Distribution Lists (may be subscription-based)
-- Password Management
-- Management of Nicknames

"We see universities considering hosted solutions, and many are going
with Google Apps for Education," said Scott McMullan, Google Apps Partner
Lead. "Solutions like Ensim's make it easier for academia and enterprises
alike to get the most out of their hosted solutions."
