SyAM Software Power Management qualifies for Connecticut Energy
Efficiency Fund (CEEF)
(Dateline, April 23, 2007 – North Haven, CT)
IFS is announcing today that their SyAM Software product qualifies for
Connecticut Energy Efficient Fund (CEEF) incentives. As a result,
businesses and school districts receive up to 50% funding assistance
when implementing SyAM Software to reduce their Desktop PC energy
costs. Proposed projects are simply submitted for approval by the
respective Connecticut utility company, and if they meet required
energy saving criteria, then they qualify for the incentive.
Since most people leave their computer on overnight, businesses and
school districts are paying substantial amounts of their budgets on
wasted electricity, even at non-peak rates. These needless costs
accrue not only from the computers but also through building cooling
costs. SyAM Software’s System Area Manager enables IT Administrators
to create power policies and enforce them without any end user
intervention. It gives administrators the ability to schedule specific
managed systems to remotely power on or off at user specified times,
seven days a week. All settings can be made across a large network
within a couple of hours, saving power and the associated costs.
Compelling ROI
Through energy savings just from the PCs, the $39 cost of the
application is quickly returned within 6 months with substantial
energy cost reductions continuing thereafter.
“SyAM Software enables our customers to pro-actively manage their IT
assets from any remote location using a web browser. The power
management capabilities allow administrators to save money and helps
the utility companies recover previously wasted energy.” says Michael
Mazzariello, Director of Business Development – Alliances at
Integrated Financial Systems. “Using SyAM Software’s solutions, we’ve
been able to provide easy to implement solutions that quickly achieve
substantial and tangible results for our customers. In this era of
shrinking IT budgets and increasing management expectations, a clear
and substantial return on investment helps all involved parties
benefit.”
Robert Giesen, Business Manager for Region 12 School District,
Connecticut had the following to say.
“Our school district would rely on the employees to manually shut down
every computer system at night and then power them on again each
morning in order to save money and energy. However, this was not
efficient and inevitably many systems were forgotten and left on, at
times machines were left on even over weeklong school breaks. We
needed something with the ability to power systems off but without any
user intervention. SyAM Software’s System Area Manager and power
management utility did that and more. It helps us save energy while
allowing us to configure exactly when we want systems to be powered
off at night, seven days a week. So even on weekends or weeklong
school breaks we don’t need to worry about wasting our district energy
budget. With the ever increasing electrical energy costs the savings
have allowed us to maintain our technology budget for the students of
our district. If you need to look at creative ways to maintain your
annual budget for technology, it’s is a win/win achieving the savings
year after year.”
