Kaseya Wins THINKstrategies' Best of SaaS Showplace (BoSS) Award 

 

On-Demand Automated IT Systems Management Accelerates Deployment, Reduces Costs

 

Wellesley, Mass. - June 21, 2011 - THINKstrategies, Inc., the leading strategic consulting company focused on the business implications of the on-demand services market, announced today that Kaseya has been named the latest winner of the Best of SaaS Showplace (BoSS) Awards program, which is aimed at promoting the measurable business benefits being delivered by today's Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solutions.  

 

The BoSS Awards is an ongoing program of THINKstrategies' new Cloud Computing Showplace which recognizes SaaS companies that are producing tangible business benefits for specific user organizations. These benefits can include increased sales, lower costs, higher customer satisfaction, faster operations and greater profitability.
 

Kaseya is a leading global provider of IT Systems Management (ITSM) software. Kaseya solutions empower everyone from individual consumers to large corporations and IT service providers to proactively manage and control IT assets remotely, easily and efficiently from one integrated, Web-based platform. Kaseya IT Center saves users valuable time by helping them make sure all their patches are up to date quickly and efficiently.

 

Green IT is a Managed Service Provider (MSP) located in Plantation, Florida, which started using Kaseya IT Center in November, 2010. At the time, company consisted of four employees supporting 10 customers. Using Kaseya IT Center, Green IT can monitor its customers remotely in just a few clicks. Within 45 minutes of setting up one client monitor, Green IT received an email notifiction from IT Center that a customer application had unexpectedly crashed and that the print spooler service had been stopped. In 39 seconds after receiving the email alert, Kaseya's IT Center notified Green IT that the print spooler service had been successfully restored. The issue was resolved so quickly that the customer was unaware of the problem. Green IT now uses Kaseya IT Center to manage all its customers and scale its business.

 

It is for these reasons that Kaseya has been named a Best of SaaS Showplace Award winner. A summary of the company's winning BoSS Award submission can be found at http://cloudshowplace.com/awardSummary.php?key=2204.

 

"We are very pleased to receive this industry recognition from THINKstrategies' Cloud Computing Showplace," said Dan Shapero, Executive Vice President and General Manager of Kaseya's On Demand Division. "We created our Kaseya On Demand platform to provide IT professionals with an affordable and pay-as-you-go option for enterprise-class IT systems management."

 

"Organizations of all sizes are increasingly dependent on their IT systems and business applications to conduct their business and cannot afford extensive service disruptions," stated Jeffrey M. Kaplan, the founder of the SaaS Showplace which is now a part of the new Cloud Computing Showplace, and Managing Director of THINKstrategies, the strategic consulting firm which conceived and administers the Showplace. "MSPs can leverage SaaS-based Kaseya's IT Center to proactively support their customers and scale their businesses."
