Do IT Smarter Selects Shavlik to Deliver Simplified and Streamlined System Management and Security Through Their MSP Partner Network

Shavlik’s Integrated AV, Patch, and Asset Management in a Single Agent Provides Do IT Smarter with Best in Class at Lower Cost

San Diego, CA, November 12, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Do IT Smarter, a Master managed services provider (MMSP) and Shavlik Technologies, LLC, the market leader in simplifying and automating critical IT operations, will launch a new initiative to deliver Shavlik’s systems management and security solution to Do IT Smarter’s customers to better secure and manage small/mid-size (SMB) IT environments. The partnership will be announced at MSPWorld in Las Vegas, November 12-13, being held at the Venetian Hotel.

The Shavlik and Do IT Smarter partnership adds a critical security and system management resource for MSPs and customers already leveraging Do IT Smarter's comprehensive support package that includes help desk services, on-site services, and remote monitoring and management services. Shavlik delivers industry-leading patch management and antivirus + antispyware in a single agent that is fast and light on system resources. By adopting Shavlik’s single-agent approach, Do IT Smarter customers can eliminate bloated, resource hogging AV-only solutions in favor of a more comprehensive solution that reduces help desk costs by ensuring systems are fully patched and that AV is running and up-to-date.

"We're pleased to partner with Do IT Smarter to provide all the benefits of Shavlik NetChk Protect through their managed services platform," said Mark Shavlik, CEO, Shavlik Technologies. "The MSP model works especially well to deliver Shavlik’s enterprise-class services to the SMB market, but it takes the right partner with the right combination of technology and expertise to succeed."

The two companies will each be presenting at the MSPWorld Conference. For more information visit the conference web site.

"Making security simple for our managed services customers meant finding a partner who offered a complete solution that was compatible with our model for operational efficiency. Shavlik was a perfect fit because they offer a lightweight, multi-functional agent, allowing us to leave a smaller footprint on our customer’s networks," said Lane Smith, CEO, Do IT Smarter and member of the MSP Alliance Board of Advisors. "We are able to offer SMB customers a more efficient and effective way to deliver the benefits of Shavlik's management and security solutions to their environments.
