Managed Systems Raises the "Level" on Customer Service for Small and Mid-Sized Businesses

July 23, 2008

NEW YORK, NY- July 23, 2008 - Managed Systems, Inc., delivering proven IT solutions to SMBs, today announced its partnership with Level Platforms Inc. (LPI), the leading provider of remote monitoring and management software, to deliver proactive IT systems monitoring to their customers.

In today's turbulent economy, companies are feeling the pinch. Resources such as time and money are scarce. This is even more apparent for small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs) that take a major hit from any productivity-hindering downtime, the end result being lost revenue opportunities.

To address this issue, Managed Systems is remotely and proactively monitoring their customers' IT infrastructure using Managed Workplace®, Level Platforms' remote management solution. By analyzing network device alerts, pre-failure indicators, performance benchmarks and security issues, Managed Systems is able to identify preventative maintenance opportunities and proactively address issues that eliminate network downtime. This allows SMBs to focus on what's important - revenue-generating activities.

"IT system downtime is simply not an option for any company -- big or small," said Dan Wensley, Level Platforms' VP of Partner Development. "Working with a best-of-breed solution provider such as Managed Systems, empowers SMBs to transform the reliability and performance of their IT network. Maximizing on this new level of productivity ultimately furthers their success."
