(Nasdaq: ATRS), a leader in systems management solutions that reduce the total cost of owning information technology, today announced the opening of a regional office in Stockholm, expansion of local service and support, and continued growth of a network of business partners to support the growing Scandinavian customer base. Altiris® IT lifecycle management software is successfully implemented by Scandinavian customers such as Telia, Ericsson Mobile Communication, Navision, Telenordia and others. In an effort to consolidate IT resources, manage hardware and software assets, and maximize software application usage, Orange Denmark, one of Denmark’s top three mobile service providers, implemented Altiris solutions to manage over 1700 workstations. Claus Nørtoft Thomsen, Orange Denmark client team manager, welcomes the regional Altiris presence. Thomsen said, “Altiris Client Mgmt Suite™ and Asset Mgmt Suite™ are the most important part of our IT management infrastructure. Altiris solutions allow us to manage IT assets, limit support costs, and efficiently change desktop software configurations. We save money with Altiris software through the optimization of help desk operations and the harvesting of unused software licenses.” Altiris has established business partnerships with key systems integrators in the region including HP PSG. Kjell Jørgenrud, HP Norway, PSG senior systems engineer, said, “An Altiris office in Sweden allows better coordination of joint sales opportunities and the ability for us to provide truly integrated systems with Altiris. For instance, we provided HP workstations with Altiris software to create a complete managed environment for Orkla Media in Tønsberg, Norway. We look forward to working even more closely with Altiris in the future.” “I see a definite demand for client management solutions that save time and money for IT departments by automating and simplifying day-to-day processes” said Volker Wiora, Altiris EMEA managing director. “Altiris IT lifecycle management solutions provide immediate ROI as evidenced by many happy Scandinavian customers.” Lars Norballe, Altiris Scandinavia regional manager, sees great market potential in the region.
