Tarantella, SiS Deliver
Server-Based Solution In Asia
Tarantella Inc, a leading supplier of secure application-access software,
announced that is has signed an agreement with SiS Technologies, one of the
largest distributors of computer systems, software, peripherals and networking
products in Asia. SiS Technologies will distribute the New Moon Canaveral iQ
software from Tarantella in Hong Kong and Singapore.
New Moon Canaveral iQ from Tarantella is an application management platform
that allows both expert and novice IT managers to centrally deploy and manage
Windows-based applications. In the past few years, Canaveral iQ has garnered
significant worldwide attention as a simple to use, intelligent and
cost-effective application management solution.
Enterprises and government agencies large and small throughout Asia are
embracing server-based computing for the value it contributes to the bottom
line. Canaveral iQ reduces the time associated with managing and upgrading
remote worker's systems and provides detailed, real-time reporting about
application usage. By centralizing applications, administrators can easily
manage the network and the timing of upgrades as well as allocate the ideal
number of software licenses based on actual usage.
"Our reseller community has a dire need for products that both maximize
budgets and ease burdens for our customers," said Kiah Meng Lim, North Asian
president of SiS Technologies. "Canaveral iQ fills the void perfectly by
providing an easy to manage and cost effective solution."
"Enterprises in Asia are rapidly turning to application management
solutions
and thin client devices to maintain peak IT performance at a reasonable cost,
but also to address the pain points faced by employees and system
administrators," said Edmundo Costa, vice president of worldwide sales of
Tarantella. "We are delighted to work with SiS Technologies to expand our
presence in Asia."
New Moon Canaveral iQ from Tarantella takes full advantage of the power of
server-centric computing. In addition to reducing PC support costs, Canaveral
iQ provides a centralized and highly scaleable way of managing software
licensing and monitoring application usage. IT managers gather important usage
information needed to help reduce the overall cost of excess PC software
acquisition and service-level agreements.
