System Center Online Desktop Manager beta is available soon

  • Article

We are excited to offer an exclusive opportunity for customers to participate in an upcoming Microsoft beta program. In the coming months, a new Microsoft desktop management service will be made available to a limited number of customers to obtain their feedback and input.  We are seeking customers primarily in the core midmarket space, but are also interested in recruiting customers from the enterprise space as well.  Prospective candidates must be based in the US, Canada, Mexico, or Puerto Rico.

Microsoft System Center Online Desktop Manager is a hosted IT management solution based on Microsoft System Center management technologies that provides the capability to secure, update, monitor, configure, troubleshoot and collect inventory from a single, Web-based console.

This new IT management service is designed for customers who want an integrated desktop management solution without the overhead associated with installing and maintaining an on-premises management infrastructure.

Features for this initial beta include:

· Anti-malware protection

· Microsoft updates management

· Desktop configuration

· IT asset inventory and software license management

Additional features and capabilities will be introduced in later beta releases.  More information about System Center Online Desktop Manager can be found here (https://www.microsoft.com/online/system-center.mspx).
