Microsoft System Center 2012 is an all-embracing platform that enables you to manage your IT environments with drastic improvements in simplicity and gain tremendous efficiencies – both server infrastructure and client devices.
System Center 2012 pushes a shift in paradigm, allowing the customer to focus on value of IT services to the business. System Center 2012 handles the traditional tedious/repetitive tasks, and enables self-service, automation, & cloud management (public, private and hybrids) from a single administrative interface. Perficient is a Microsoft partner which has dedicated specialists for this field of technology; enabling clients to effectively manage and control the technology they already own – and adhere to best practices.
Perficient engineers have a wealth of experience implementing these products; although some are new, they are viewed as mature via their previous iterations. One of the key elements in this release is the opening up of controls against non-Microsoft products (a unique element with competitors do not allow). This simplifies management of the organizations IT vastly – allowing a complete view via a “single pane of glass” to all systems managed.
