                                      We looked at several tools like IBM but found that Novell ZENworks ™
                                      Configuration Management offered the best scalability and
         5K devices                   manageability. - May 2010


                                      With the old [Microsoft] solution, it could take up to two hours to install a
                                      new application...Novell ZENworks Configuration Management can get
                                      the same job done in just 30 minutes. - Jan 2010
     4K workstations



                                      Using the asset management capabilities of Novell ZENworks
                                      Configuration Management, we can quickly identify which workstations
     14K workstations                 are ready to handle the migration to Windows 7. - Jan 2010


                                      We selected Novell® ZENworks™ Configuration Management because
                                      its patch management and asset management capabilities were far
       2K employees                   superior to those of the Altiris solution. - Nov 2010


                                      The real cost savings are in license control and management. ZENworks
                                      Asset Management gives us a true indication of the licensing
                                      required, so we no longer over-provision. - Jun 2009
