SAManage and go-ESI Partner to Help Enterprises Migrate to SaaS IT Management

Alliance Provides New Options to Companies Currently Using On-Premise Legacy IT Service Management Tools

SEATTLE, WA, June 7, 2010 -- SAManage, a leading provider of on-demand IT management software, today announced a strategic partnership with go-ESI, a partnership of ex-BMC executives, to support the expansion of it's sales and marketing programs in North America and Europe.

SAManage is a leading global provider of on-demand IT management solutions that help organizations better control their IT assets, and deliver an ITIL-based enterprise IT service desk. Delivered via software-as-a-service (SaaS), SAManage empowers companies of all sizes to easily automate and simplify the daily tasks associated with establishing IT governance, control, compliance, and user satisfaction.

Through the partnership, SAManage and go-ESI will target companies currently using legacy on-premise enterprise IT service management solutions.  These organizations face tremendous challenges, such as a vicious cycle of expensive and time-consuming upgrades “forced” by the vendor, as well as high total cost of ownership.  By making SAManage’s solutions more readily available to companies like these, the alliance will allow them to achieve the same level of functionality, at a fraction of the cost and burden they are stuck with today.  

"Many organizations today are finding themselves in the position of being forced to upgrade these legacy enterprise IT Asset and Service Management solutions to meet vendor requirements" said Darroll Buytenhuys, a managing partner with go-ESI.  "More and more, they are looking to SaaS-based solutions as a viable alternative, and SAManage is uniquely positioned to take advantage of this opportunity in the marketplace."

Doron Gordon, CEO of SAManage, said "We are confident that the combination of the SAManage SaaS offering and the experience that go-ESI brings to the table, will quickly allow us to introduce our solution to enterprise customers in North America and Europe.  We look forward to adding to our growing family of customers."

SAManage’s innovative approach to delivering a true multi-tenant SaaS-based IT management solution provides a unique opportunity to meet the growing requirements of companies of all sizes.  With SAManage, they are benefiting from an easy-to-use IT management system and are empowered to free themselves of the complex and costly task of managing legacy on-premise ITSM and ITAM solutions.
