Single Sign On (SSO) Managed Services

PRODUCT SUMMARY

Managing user passwords involves unnecessary cost, aggravation, and lost productivity for most organizations. Yet many IT departments have given up hope of achieving single sign on due its complexity and perceived cost.

SSO doesn’t have to be expensive or time-consuming, especially if your network includes a Windows domain along with applications running on IBM i (AS/400).

Single Sign On Managed Services eliminates up to 80 percent of an organization's password management costs within one day—using technology they already own—with positive ROI typically achieved in 4–12 months. This is sensible single sign on at its best.

What you get:

1. SSO implementation between Windows-based work stations and IBM i systems.

2. Hands-on implementation training with an experienced SSO expert.

3. On-going tech support to proactively address issue introduced by application or OS updates.

Immediate, Tangible Results

Text

Unlike most IT projects, the positive impact of SSO is immediately evident across the enterprise. End users no longer have to log in to applications they use every day, the number of help desk calls drops, and password-related distractions decline. The best part is that most organizations achieve positive ROI within the first 12 months, and the savings continue year after year.

No New Software Required

Text

If your IT network includes a Windows domain, you’re already using and managing the software you need to implement SSO for many of your systems and applications. Most IT professionals just need experienced guidance on how to configure the complex software on non-Windows systems in their specific environment.
