n·fluence Conference in New Orleans to highlight how 'Easy' Nimsoft products deliver value

Redwood City, California – 29th May, 2008 –Nimsoft, Inc., the “Big 4” alternative provider of IT performance and availability monitoring, announced today that Gartner analyst Ray Paquet will serve as the keynote speaker at the Nimsoft customer conference in the United States, this year located in New Orleans. The n·fluence annual user conferences showcase how Nimsoft offerings help dramatically cut costs, sharply increase IT operational efficiencies and are ‘Easy’ compared to alternatives. The U.S. conference will take place Oct. 6 – Oct. 10 in New Orleans and the EMEA conference is scheduled for Oct. 20 – Oct. 24 in Amsterdam.

The keynote speaker at the n·fluence customer conference in New Orleans is Ray Paquet, managing vice president of Gartner Research. He is responsible for IT Operations and Enterprise Management research, which includes asset management, change management, configuration management and problem management, as well as desktop, server, application, network and database management. The keynote will offer attendees insight on ways to maximize IT operations to reduce costs, increase efficiencies and achieve bottom-line business value.

New Orleans and its reputation as “The Big Easy” is the perfect place to showcase just how easy Nimsoft is for customers to deploy and realize value from.  Requiring few professional services, offering a short time to deploy and install, and a rapid ROI Nimsoft is actively replacing and winning against all of the “Big 4” monitoring providers, including BMC Software, CA, HP and IBM. In 2007, Nimsoft gained 139 new brand name customers and continues to build its momentum in the marketplace.

“As Nimsoft continues to win against and replace the ‘Big 4’ solutions, it is becoming more and more evident that Nimsoft offerings are ‘The Big Easy’ when compared to the ‘Big 4’,” said Gary Read, president and CEO, Nimsoft. “We have designed our annual conferences to serve as forums where customers can share best practices, access hands-on training to more effectively show value and learn what new capabilities are coming. Our customers continue to reinforce that while the ‘Big 4’ promise, Nimsoft delivers.”

It’s a tradition in New Orleans to present visitors with lagniappe, which means “a little something extra.” Nimsoft will follow suit by offering multiple modular training tracks that enable attendees to focus on what is important to them and their companies.   The Two Day Training Track will provide attendees advanced course work intended to extend and elevate existing implementations and showcase the value delivered to the business.  The Three Day Training Track is intended for new users to gain a broad overview of implementation best practices for rapid ROI and specific topics for quick adoption and configuration. 

Both tracks will offer modules on hot new topics including how to effectively monitor virtual machine environments, unified communications and advanced dashboard design.

Early bird registration is available at http://www.nimsoft.com/nfluence/. Attendees can save $300 or €200 by registering before August 15. Volume discounts also available.
