"At ENKI, we deliver more than just cloud computing resources -- we deliver fully managed cloud services," said Dave Durkee, CEO of ENKI. "As a result, we needed a sophisticated solution that could penetrate the cloud and deliver performance data at a very granular level. Nimsoft is a critical component of our high-value delivery systems that enables us to ensure we are delivering on our Service Level Agreements while overseeing a virtual infrastructure that is highly complex and extremely fluid."

To monitor and manage ENKI's multifaceted environment, the NMS provides a range of critical features:

--  Comprehensive infrastructure coverage - Nimsoft enabled ENKI to
    centrally monitor and manage every key component of its cloud environment,
    including both virtual and physical elements.
--  Robust remote-monitoring capabilities - ENKI uses Nimsoft to remotely
    scan servers in the cloud for faults and application issues. Nimsoft
    provides ENKI the scalability it required, scaling to hundreds of clients
    and tens of thousands of devices.
--  Streamlined architecture - Nimsoft's efficient architecture offers
    unprecedented ease of use and deployment, negating the need for expensive
    consultants and/or training.
--  Intuitive dashboards - Nimsoft's customizable dashboards offer
    intuitive insights for ENKI, enabling it to adjust and tune applications or
    troubleshoot issues to ensure the ultimate customer experience.
    

"At Nimsoft, we understand the Managed Service Provider model and what it takes to become a trusted partner for our customers," said Gary Read, president and CEO of Nimsoft. "From the initial engagement, we worked with ENKI to understand their priorities and customize a solution that addressed their specific business requirements. Through this collaboration, we provided ENKI with a service level management solution that helped the company gain complete visibility and control over their cloud infrastructure without the cost and complexity they would have been forced to contend with if they had chosen a larger, legacy vendor."

Before selecting Nimsoft, ENKI had evaluated competing solutions but ultimately chose Nimsoft for several reasons, including the Nimsoft Monitoring Solution's unprecedented ease of use and flexible deployment and because Nimsoft understood ENKI's business model. More importantly, Nimsoft proved to be the only vendor equipped to monitor and manage a range of critical aspects within ENKI's complex infrastructure, including physical machines, virtual servers, applications, and end-to-end response. As a result, ENKI has access to the performance information it needs to confidently offer enterprises a fully managed virtualized service with service level guarantees.

"We are now able to gather quality of service metrics and provide these directly to our customers," said Durkee. "Armed with this information, we can work with our customers to tune and adjust applications for optimal cost/performance tradeoffs and resolve issues more rapidly. Nimsoft has enabled us to increase customer satisfaction, which in today's competitive environment is the key to long-term success."
