CollegeNET Helps Higher Education IT Departments to Manage and Audit Services
PORTLAND, Ore.-(Business Wire)-September 21, 2009 - Leveraging more than 30 years of experience in the higher education industry, CollegeNET, Inc., a provider of Web-based, on-demand technologies, today announced IT Impact™, the easy-to-use, Web-based change and configuration management tool. As a 100 percent Web-delivered solution, IT Impact enables IT departments to manage and audit their operations following Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL®) standards without installing complicated, expensive software.
Hard-hit by budget cutbacks, the higher education industry is in search of improved operational efficiencies—particularly as it faces spiraling demands for IT services. IT Impact delivers change and configuration management without injecting another layer of installed software; it erases the costs and effort associated with local setup, installation and maintenance while enhancing accountability and transparency in IT operations. An ability to define and automatically track costs associated with IT resource operations; business logic to proactively alert organizations of key upcoming license expiration dates; robust centralized calendaring to inform employees of scheduled downtime; and illuminating matrices to help IT departments understand the full impact, cost and risk associated with changes are some of the beneficial features provided by IT Impact.
“To achieve widespread adoption, change management has to be practical and easy,” said Emil Izunagbara, associate vice president, business development, CollegeNET, Inc. “Although ITIL is a great concept, stakeholders in IT operations must be willing and able to apply these standards to their real world experience—without necessitating a ‘PhD in ITIL.’ CollegeNET’s deep experience providing usable Web-based services has put us in the perfect position to create a highly intuitive, drag-and-drop change and configuration management environment that even occasional users can approach with confidence.”
CollegeNET’s IT Impact is available now. For more information about how IT Impact can enhance your IT operations, please contact the CollegeNET sales team at 503.973.5200 or sales@collegenet.com.
