What customers are saying about QED Connect and Omni Manager!
“We had severe spam issues that were preventing us from operating our business efficiently. Employees were wasting hours sifting through junk e-mail, and an IT staff that’s busy enough already was draining resources trying to keep it all under control. Within two days of its implementation, Omni Manager had filtered out over 30,000 spam messages. This is an affordable, all-in-one tool that enables us to benefit from the latest Internet and e-mail security technologies - without me having to buy, install and manage a myriad of boxed security products.”
- John McLean, IT Manager, I/OMagic Corp.
Werner Automotive
“As a business owner, I am very pleased with the return-on-investment Omni Manager has delivered. The cost of keeping up with new security technologies is high, especially when you need to purchase multiple packaged software products to accomplish the required tasks. With Omni Manager, we cost-effectively acquired the latest and most essential technologies in one hosted service. My IT staff can now devote time to other critical projects to support our business. And with the great visibility into employee activity I’ve gained, I can now control productivity losses and better focus on growing our dealerships. “
- Bob Werner, founder and president of Werner Dealerships.
“As a company serving the aviation industry, it is critical that we maximize employee efficiency to deliver quality services. With hundreds of computers spread across the U.S. and Canada, our IT staff faced a significant challenge in enforcing acceptable use policies and controlling Internet abuse. Omni Manager is a great tool for Internet filtering and monitoring. It provides quick, at-a-glance reports on sites that users are visiting or attempting to access, and I can easily set or change policies for specific users or groups in real time. The product is easy to install, configure and maintain, and we are also very impressed with the high levels of service and support we’ve received from QED staff.”
- Pauline Murphy, Manager of IT for Airport Terminal Services, Inc.
“As a hosted application, Omni Manager lessens the burden on our IT staff and lowers our operating expenses since I don’t need to maintain a server or software on my end. The product was very simple to implement and the interface is easy to understand. I was able to identify the use of inappropriate web sites within the first 24 hours of using Omni Manager. I am confident that its implementation will help us achieve the greatest benefit from the use of educational technology.”
- Randy Backus, Director of IT, Wallingford Public Schools.
“QED’s Omni Manager has really helped us protect our children from the ‘dark corners’ of the Internet. It allows our program coordinators to see exactly what the computers are being used for, so we can prevent Internet abuse and keep our children safe. We are very pleased with the overall functionality, simplicity of use and price point. QED is really leading the way in making enterprise security technologies available to nonprofits, which is critical to youth-focused centric organizations like ours. We anticipate implementing Omni Manager on the remainder of our computers in the coming months.”
- Mike Meakes, Director of IT, Living Classrooms Foundation
“With computers spread over five locations, it was becoming challenging to enforce our security policies and control inappropriate Internet and IM use. By implementing Omni Manager, I can now get visibility of my infrastructure. The information is ready to use, easy to understand, and accessible via web interface 24 hours, seven days a week. Omni Manager helps ensure a safe and productive learning environment by protecting our students from offensive and potentially illegal areas of the web.”
- Jay Bosworth, Technology Director for Pinconning Area Schools.
“Omni Manager enables me to have centralized control and real-time visibility over my infrastructure. One single solution combines asset management, license tracking and Internet blocking and filtering for a great value. Additionally, Omni Manager is administered through a web-based console, so I can deploy and enforce new policies at any time without having to travel to each of our locations.”
- Todd Blake, Director of MIS, YWCA of Central Massachusetts.
“We were concerned about our ability to manage employee Internet use and prevent network security breaches across 30 sites statewide. Omni Manager was the only solution we found that was feasible to administer on all our computers without requiring manpower at each site. It enables me to centrally manage and enforce organizational security policies on systems at different locations with different connections that aren’t on the same network. We’ve been very pleased with the visibility it’s given us into employee production.”
Scott Butler, IT Manager for Marrakech
