REDWOOD CITY, CA, Jun 01 (MARKET WIRE) --
Nimsoft, Inc., the Big 4 alternative for IT performance and availability
monitoring solutions, today announced that ENKI has deployed the Nimsoft
Monitoring Solution (NMS) to centrally monitor and manage its dynamic
cloud computing environment. ENKI, a managed service provider of cloud
services for more than two-and-a-half years, chose Nimsoft because it was
the only provider that could easily and cost-effectively monitor and
manage the performance of both the physical and virtual components within
its complex infrastructure. Because ENKI focuses on customer
satisfaction, it was critical for the company to have the visibility and
control required to deliver service-level commitments to its customers.
"At ENKI, we deliver more than just cloud computing resources -- we
deliver fully managed cloud services," said Dave Durkee, CEO of ENKI. "As
a result, we needed a sophisticated solution that could penetrate the
cloud and deliver performance data at a very granular level. Nimsoft is a
critical component of our high-value delivery systems that enables us to
ensure we are delivering on our Service Level Agreements while overseeing
a virtual infrastructure that is highly complex and extremely fluid."
To monitor and manage ENKI's multifaceted environment, the NMS provides a
range of critical features:
-- Comprehensive infrastructure coverage - Nimsoft enabled ENKI to
centrally monitor and manage every key component of its cloud environment,
including both virtual and physical elements.
-- Robust remote-monitoring capabilities - ENKI uses Nimsoft to remotely
scan servers in the cloud for faults and application issues. Nimsoft
provides ENKI the scalability it required, scaling to hundreds of clients
and tens of thousands of devices.
-- Streamlined architecture - Nimsoft's efficient architecture offers
unprecedented ease of use and deployment, negating the need for expensive
consultants and/or training.
-- Intuitive dashboards - Nimsoft's customizable dashboards offer
intuitive insights for ENKI, enabling it to adjust and tune applications or
troubleshoot issues to ensure the ultimate customer experience.
"At Nimsoft, we understand the Managed Service Provider model and
what it takes to become a trusted partner for our customers," said Gary
Read, president and CEO of Nimsoft. "From the initial engagement, we
worked with ENKI to understand their priorities and customize a solution
that addressed their specific business requirements. Through this
collaboration, we provided ENKI with a service level management solution
that helped the company gain complete visibility and control over their
cloud infrastructure without the cost and complexity they would have been
forced to contend with if they had chosen a larger, legacy vendor."
Before selecting Nimsoft, ENKI had evaluated competing solutions but
ultimately chose Nimsoft for several reasons, including the Nimsoft
Monitoring Solution's unprecedented ease of use and flexible deployment
and because Nimsoft understood ENKI's business model. More importantly,
Nimsoft proved to be the only vendor equipped to monitor and manage a
range of critical aspects within ENKI's complex infrastructure, including
physical machines, virtual servers, applications, and end-to-end
response. As a result, ENKI has access to the performance information it
needs to confidently offer enterprises a fully managed virtualized
service with service level guarantees.
"We are now able to gather quality of service metrics and provide these
directly to our customers," said Durkee. "Armed with this information, we
can work with our customers to tune and adjust applications for optimal
cost/performance tradeoffs and resolve issues more rapidly. Nimsoft has
enabled us to increase customer satisfaction, which in today's competitive
environment is the key to long-term success."
