NTRglobal, an international provider of enterprise-grade, on-demand IT management solutions, today announced the North American release of NTRadmin(tm) with NTRadmin Bots. NTRadmin software-as-a-service (SaaS) helps IT system administrators control, monitor and secure hardware and software assets regardless of geographical location, enhancing productivity, security and cost savings.

Commenting on the release of NTRadmin, influential SaaS and IT trend strategist Phil Wainewright said: "NTRadmin brings much-needed relief to hard-pressed IT managers and managed service providers (MSPs). Its on-demand army of automated Bots helps them regain control of daily tasks, such as monitoring computers and servers, checking inventory, or diagnosing potential problems such as lack of disk space, underperforming CPUs, outdated anti-virus control versions and other unguarded security risks."

Extending Network Control with NTRadmin Bots -- Unlimited IT Task and Automation Capabilities

Unlike any other competing products, NTRadmin utilizes Bots, fully customizable virtual robots that automate critical IT administration jobs across workstations, laptops, and servers. Bots can be borrowed from the NTRglobal Bots library or easily custom-programmed to execute tasks automatically inside or outside the LAN, whether they are online, offline, or only accessible after-hours. Additionally, they can inventory all company assets, check hardware and software status and perform upgrades, patches, and file distributions without end-user coordination or disruption. Bots can also be programmed to power-down idle, unattended machines to reduce energy consumption.

Wainewright added, "IT management today is accountable for the performance and availability of increasingly complex distributed client and server populations. Robust software-as-a-service solutions such as NTRadmin help them achieve more proactive fault resolution without increasing overall support costs or workload."

Increased Security and IT Capacity

"NTRadmin's ability to easily streamline IT processes gives our enterprise customers unlimited capabilities to take command and control of devices on the network and even beyond the WAN," said LAus Font, CEO, NTRglobal. "Because of our extensive global experience with organizations in Europe, the UK, the Middle East, Russia and Japan, we have proven SaaS for IT network management with NTRadmin and NTRsupport. Extending our platform to the Americas, offers even greater global capabilities and performance to enterprises doing business in the U.S., in the Americas and everywhere on the Web."

NTRadmin enhances security by allowing IT system administrators to manage and monitor security settings across the WAN by deploying automated Bots to perform regular hot-fix and virus updates. Delivering more than 10 million sessions annually to companies in government, healthcare and financial services among many other security-sensitive sectors, data is protected through secure storage and encrypted transmissions. NTRadmin prevents unauthorized users from accessing computers, without the need to open special ports or change network or Firewall configurations.

A Vote of Confidence from Toshiba Spain

"Toshiba Spain needed a high-availability solution that works across its ITC platform to ensure business continuity, boost productivity and accelerate its business processes," said Miguel Garcia, ICT Manager, Toshiba TEC Spain. "Remote office connectivity delivers significant cost savings and a huge business advantage. We now serve our customers promptly, efficiently and individually in a more flexible way than before."
