Auconet Fills Technology Gap between Legacy ITOM Suites and Single-Purpose Tools
June 24, 2014 – San Francisco, CA and Berlin, Germany – Auconet, the visionary leader in next-generation IT Operations Management (ITOM), has received market validation that its BICS platform fills a huge gap in IT infrastructure management. Presentations by Gartner analysts and discussions with CIOs, at the Gartner IT Infrastructure and Operations Management Summit last week, outlined the existing gap between widely-deployed legacy suites from the "Big 4," and a broad variety of single-purpose tools offered by specialized technology vendors. This problem has been definitively solved by Auconet for global, enterprise customers like BASF, Deutsche Bahn, and Siemens. The recent acquisition of ASDIS Solutions, a leading system management provider, strengthens the Auconet Business Infrastructure Control Solution (BICS) for next-generation ITOM.
"Due to BYOD and the Internet of Everything, the challenge and risk for enterprise IT management is at an all-time high," said Frank Winter, CEO of Auconet. "During the summit, we were amazed to hear recommendations to select best-of-breed tools from multiple vendors, and integrate these tools, by yourself, to resolve ongoing ITOM problems. With Auconet’s proven and sophisticated BICS platform, there is no longer a need for a homegrown or ‘do-it-yourself’ approach. Auconet’s Global 1000 customers are using the solution to improve productivity, reduce risk, and save money."
Prospective customers visiting Auconet’s booth at the Gartner event were excited to find an integrated solution providing the full range of ITOM capabilities. Several prospects commented that with Auconet they had finally found a complete data center-to-endpoint management solution with centralized and automated control that they were afraid did not exist. Auconet BICS was designed from the ground up to provide a complete platform for the next generation of IT Operations Management, supporting the real-world needs of vast enterprises for today’s and tomorrow’s ITOM challenges, including BYOD and the Internet of Everything.
