A pro-active IT department thanks to the Desktop and Workspace management solution of Scense
The migration yielded many advantages, both for end-users as the system administrators. "Our end-users logon, using a dynamic logon/logoff script, at any workstation they want and can request the most up-to-date applications at the Scense database. If an application is not available, they will receive a notification of this (instead of an error message or a crashing system). The stability has been improved because the Scense repository compares different files from different versions to avoid application conflicts. End-users are no longer obligatory to work on a fixed workstation, the usage of the dynamic logon/logoff scripts ensure all settings are transferred to any workstation." Before the deployment of Scense the IT department spent 80% of their time at workstation- and application management. Now this is reduced to 20%.
"The IT department has become more pro-active and since the implementation of Scense a number of strategic projects have been realized that otherwise could not have been implemented with the same number of FTE’s." - Evert de Rijke, System Administration Coordinater at Waterboard Schieland & Krimpenerwaard.
