RMM/centralised management for MSPs – stay tuned

ManageEngine has made an exciting announcement. In the next few months, their first iteration of a fully-fledged RMM central platform will be released. It combines 3 of their industry leading platforms; OpManager MSP, Desktop Central MSP and ServiceDesk Plus MSP.

Combining the management of these dashboards into a single pane will simplify deployment, configuration, visibility and ensure MSPs (or distributed architecture customers) have more options, when considering what solutions to use. We don’t have more details yet, but watch this space!

ManageEngine recognised as top 10 PIM vendor

Due to the pandemic, remote working has shifted network boundaries. This intensifies the problem of privileged credentials being abused. Such credentials have been a hot target, for both malicious insider threats and external hackers. Stealing such sensitive data grants access to critical systems.

The Forrester Wave: Privileged Identity Management (PIM) report for Q4 2020, recognised ManageEngine as one of the top vendors in the privileged management space.

ManageEngine’s PAM360 has very high customer satisfaction. The report named its ease of use, solid integration across diverse platforms, and great customer support as key benefits.
