Las Vegas, Nevada (PRWEB) October 27, 2015
Ascert and Odyssey Information Services announce they are teaming up to provide a unique service in the cloud. The Ascertified Hosted Service provides cloud based certification & testing environments that allow users to benefit from the unique automation characteristics of Ascert’s VersaTest testing products without incurring the time and cost of internal infrastructure changes. Odyssey brings established, professional help desk and system support services to the partnership, resulting in a robust service offering in terms of both technology and customer service. Both Ascert and Odyssey will be attending Money20/20 in Las Vegas, NV to promote their new venture.
Odyssey manages and monitors systems for very large IT operations through its Remote Systems Management service, which is used to support the Ascertified.com site in delivery of world class testing solutions for payments systems. Ascert’s customers include some of the largest financial institutions in the Americas and EMEA.
“Odyssey is excited to participate in Ascert’s innovative industry offerings and solutions,” said Steve Donaldson, VP of Professional Services at Odyssey. “I look forward to a continued partnership with Ascert and I’m excited to see what the future has in store for us both.”
Ascert's growing library of standard testing simulators for customers such as MasterCard, Visa, SWIFT, Faster Payments, American Express, Diners Club, Discover, Apple Pay, Interac, etc., combined with the expertise and support available from Odyssey's extensive pool of consultants, allows targeted solutions to be implemented rapidly and efficiently.
"Our Ascertified Hosted Testing Service has enabled us to help address the issue of rapidly assisting companies to prepare for the implementation of EMV”, said Andrew Mould, Managing Partner at Ascert. "We realized that the EMV mandate would require us to significantly ramp up our on-boarding and delivery capabilities in order to meet the industry's testing need. Odyssey has enabled us to deliver a quality product in a rapid fashion with world class 24x7 support. We've been able to help companies quickly expand from just a few internal testers by tapping into the capabilities of Odyssey's Remote Systems Management.”
