TORONTO, ONTARIO — (Marketwire) — 10/11/11 — Compugen Inc., Canada-s largest privately owned IT solutions and services provider, is pleased to announce major peer recognition at 2011 Channel Elite Awards ceremony held in Toronto on 29 September 2011.
Winning Gold in the Enterprise Solution category, Compugen-s managed desktop solution for a Western Canadian enterprise was delivered by Compugen-s Managed Services Team. Its purpose was to allow 4000 users in 60 locations in Northwestern Canada to experience more reliable computing, and it encompassed the complete lifecycle of an asset from acquisition through end-of-life disposition, assisted by an innovative leasing arrangement negotiated through Compugen Finance. Aggressive service SLAs and planned refresh cycles have improved the customer-s efficiency and saved considerable time and money.
Winning Gold in the Services Organization category, Compugen-s end-of-life asset disposition program for a large Canadian enterprise permitted the customer to address its requirement for rapid redeployment of assets to be cascaded (wiped, recertified for use, and distributed to new employees in as-good-as-new condition) as well as for secure disposal to third parties (for resale or recycling) of assets to be decommissioned. The solution increased reliability of recertified assets and permitted the safe, environmentally sound and secure disposal of other assets to reduce long-term warehouse costs without incurring new business risk.
Winning Silver in the Enterprise Solution category, Compugen-s VDI solution for a Western Canadian School Division enabled access by end users to a pool of virtual desktops, accommodating the unique requirements of frequent bursts of log-in activity throughout the day as students move from home to school, to library, classroom, and back. Driven by a need to control costs associated with managing the desktop images while making access available to all qualified users, the school division used Compugen-s VDI solution to achieve its interim objectives along the road to full end-user access within its budget constraints, at approximately half the anticipated fully burdened cost per end-user desktop.
In response to this recognition, Harry Zarek, Compugen-s CEO and President, said, “We acknowledge with pride the peer recognition that our industry partners provide through these awards, which recognize a number of significant achievements for Compugen and its customers. These achievements represent the work of talented teams of great individuals, with the backing of the whole Compugen organization. A special thank you to our vendor partners who work with our specialist teams to design the solutions, and to our services and managed services organizations that deliver them.”
Other recent industry recognitions for Compugen include an by Hewlett-Packard and a from Cisco and an from Microsoft.
