Austin, Texas and Donegal, Ireland - September 26th 2005
Iontas, a global provider of business and IT alignment solutions, today announced that its Focus solution has been implemented by University College Dublin, the largest university in Ireland. University College Dublin (UCD) has over 21,000 students and is committed to providing the highest standards of IT service and support. The University invested in Focus to build upon this approach by analyzing and managing how its student open access labs are used. This allows the University to maximize availability of the required IT infrastructure, ensure technical support, services and training are directed to the software applications in demand and to reduce the total cost of ownership of the complete IT infrastructure.
Caroline Hackman, UCD's Student Services Supervisor said "Focus allows us to analyze the demand for computer resources, both hardware and software, across the University's student open access labs. With this precise knowledge, we can then tailor the applications and services we offer to deliver maximum benefit to our students." Martin McCreesh, Iontas CTO commented "UCD's endorsement of our Focus technology re-enforces our entry into the education market in mid 2004. Second and third level colleges such as East Tyrone College and Letterkenny Institute of Technology are already maximizing the alignment of their IT systems with their end user requirements and in the process cutting the cost of their IT infrastructure."
