TEXAS SCHOOL DISTRICT SELECTS DORADO SOFTWARE’S REDCELL TO CONSOLIDATE IT RESOURCE MANAGEMENT
FOLSOM, CA – January 31, 2008 – Dorado Software, a leading provider of infrastructure lifecycle management software, today announced that Weslaco Independent School District (ISD), has selected the Redcell™ enterprise edition product suite to consolidate the IT resource management and monitoring of their heterogeneous environment – including servers, switches, routers, and printers. The Redcell solution was delivered by Quagga, a Dorado Software distribution partner.
“A key factor in our decision to use Redcell was its ability to monitor all of our data network devices and servers from one platform,” says Juan Barrera, Internet Systems Manager at Weslaco ISD. “Redcell presents a single pane of glass of the datacenter and provides our administrators the power and flexibility to manage it with a customizable permission-based graphical user interface (GUI).”
Dorado Software’s enterprise products: Redcell Management Essentials, Redcell Inventory Manager, and Redcell Change Manager, provide Weslaco with a single unified view for health monitoring, compliance identification & auditing, troubleshooting, and software patching of their multi-vendor network, server, and printer environment which includes equipment from Cisco, Dell, and others. Some of the functions that Redcell provides are deep system discovery, inventory management and reporting, device configuration, health management, remote access and control, software patching & provisioning, topology views, and performance monitoring.
To reduce errors and increase productivity, Weslaco will automate their manual configuration processes with Redcell’s Group Operations (which has one-to-many capabilities). Examples include: automating inventory and change reporting; applying configuration and security changes to groups of systems, updating switch/router OS/Firmware and server OS/driver patches, managing passwords, and many other operations.
“Dorado Software offers a robust, scalable, and cost-effective solution to our customers,“ says Ken Apperson, President, Quagga, “In addition, their ability to manage converging infrastructures of voice, data, and video is an ideal fit in our portfolio of Cisco and Avaya solutions.”
