Managed Workplace® 2013 debuts at Synaxon UK 2013 National Conference

AVG Technologies (NYSE: AVG) today announced that it will this week introduce Managed Workplace® 2013 to partners attending the Synaxon UK National Conference in Cheshire taking place 18th -19th July.  It is also the first opportunity for partners to learn about the enriched support resources they can now access following AVG’s acquisition of the business of Level Platforms in June.

At the event, Synaxon will launch AVG’s Managed Workplace 2013 remote monitoring and management (RMM) platform, with advanced automation features and exclusive per-device pricing to help its 600-plus members cost-effectively enter the managed services market.

On the opening day at 12:15pm Dave Sobel, Director of Partner Community, will present a keynote session on the managed services opportunity – including how resellers can develop new revenue streams as mobility, cloud, voice, video data and other technology trends converge. On the second day AVG will host two conference workshop sessions (10:00am to 11:15am and 11:45am to 13:00pm in the Stapeley room) that will demonstrate how Synaxon members can use RMM technology to help position services to prospects, expand offerings to existing clients and maximise performance, improve productivity and business results for end-users.

Specifically, the workshop will cover how top MSPs use network audits to build successful and growing business. It will also explore how new automation capabilities help IT service providers proactively address issues, enforce usage policies and improve security for clients while freeing internal resources from manual configuration and maintenances tasks.

“Managed Workplace streamlines time-consuming tasks across all aspects of a managed services offering — from customer acquisition and onboarding to ongoing monitoring and services expansion — to increase productivity, lower operating cost and drive revenue growth,” said Sobel. “The ability to see and manage an end-client’s entire IT environment from a single dashboard, combined with flexible pricing addressing requirements for smaller and micro end-users in the UK, makes it easy and affordable for Synaxon members to add revenue-generating managed services to their portfolio.”

Managed Workplace is the RMM platform of choice for Synaxon members. Expanded capabilities in Managed Workplace 2013 automate installation, device discovery, network audits, alerting and routine maintenance and security tasks to improve monitoring, rapidly resolve issues and more easily identify new revenue-generating opportunities.

“Our members understand and appreciate the importance of having the right managed services tools to help them successfully grow their business in this market,” said Nathan Addison, Synaxon UK Channel Manager.  “Now, with the added reputation and resources of AVG behind them, Level Platforms is not just a compelling product for our members in Managed Workplace 2013 but provides a phenomenal global support network too.”
