IDSync® Releases New Lync and AutoBuy Features for Parallels® Automation
Perrysburg (PRWEB) November 05, 2013 -- New Features Increase Service Provider Revenue and User Convenience
In addition to the ability to provision and synchronize users from Active Directory to PA for Microsoft Exchange and SharePoint, IDSync® is also now capable of auto provisioning and synchronization of Lync users. The new AutoBuy feature allows an AD administrator the ability to easily and efficiently provision new users to the limits of their hosting plan without delay or service provider intervention. The real benefit is faster availability of service for end users and reduced administrative costs and enhanced revenue for service providers.
The revenue enhancing capabilities of AutoBuy are based on tight integration with Parallels Automation Software and thereby maintains the high level of back office efficiency expected and valued by Parallels service providers. When a new user license is requested by the AD administrator for either Exchange, SharePoint or Lync, and resources in the PA subscription are insufficient to fulfill the request, a purchase order is generated by IDSync® which then purchases the resources from the service provider and auto provisions the resource to the user.
Service Provider Brand – Directly Within Active Directory
Identity Syncronizer™ extends the standard Active Directory property pages to provide centralized management of a user’s credentials, meta-data, and application configuration information in a single location that drives the provisioning process.
This is accomplished by inserting the Parallels AD connector directly within Active Directory making it easy to manage user provisioning from a single security database. With Identity Syncronizer™, the branded Service or Cloud provider extends their brand presence INSIDE the customer AD environment by having a dedicated tab, complete with logo for their product offerings directly within the customer’s Active Directory environment.
Maximize Service Revenue
IDSync® reduces the on-boarding complexity and the costs associated with the initial provisioning for new clients AND the on-going labor required to maintain and support accurate application, password, and personal information. Identity Syncronizer™ seamlessly integrates standard Active Directory features with Parallels Automation (PA) including Windows Security Groups, Contacts, Distribution Lists and Application Level Privileges.
Add New Clients Quickly
“Service providers need to add new clients to their business management platform as quickly as possible to maximize their service revenues,” said Marty Rini, IDSync’s Chief Operating Officer. “Our goal is to deliver on the promise of Active Directory so that it can truly become a single source of identity information for both Cloud and On-premise applications. With this Identity Connector for Parallels®, we’re simplifying the administrative time and efforts for our service providers making it easier for them to work with their end-user’s identity information both during on-boarding as well as during on-going daily maintenance.”
