LAS VEGAS, NV.- Microsoft Management Summit 2009 - April 28, 2009 -Silect Software, Inc., a leading provider of deployment and management solutions for Microsoft System Center environments, today announced its latest releases of MP Studio for System Center Operations Manager 2007 and CP Studio for System Center Configuration Manager 2007 and its Desired Configuration Management capabilities. Silect has enhanced its MP Studio product offering to include an intuitive Management Pack development center and Workflow Automation. Silect's CP Studio solution will now include robust version management for Desired Configuration Management (DCM) Configuration Packs. Together, these new products further Silect's commitment to helping customers simplify the deployment and management of Microsoft System Center.

Silect will be exhibiting its product solutions including MP Studio and CP Studio at the Microsoft Management Summit (MMS) in Las Vegas through April 30th. "Companies are searching for ways to reduce costs, increase efficiency and improve the effectiveness of their IT infrastructure," said Harold Dyck, President, Silect Software, Inc. "The offerings announced today bring extensive improvements in the efficiency of managing IT environments with System Center Operations Manager 2007 and Configuration Manager 2007 DCM environments, while utilizing existing resources to perform tasks that would otherwise require more in-depth skill sets regarding the internal structures of Management Packs and Configuration Packs."

"Microsoft System Center delivers broad management capabilities and partners, such as System Center Alliance member Silect Software, are critical to deeply extending those capabilities for IT environments," said Ryan O'Hara, Director, System Center Product Management, Microsoft. "Silect's product offerings can help customers more quickly and easily author new System Center management packs and configuration packs for deeper monitoring of their specific IT environment."

Included in this release, Silect's new "MP Studio Development Center" facilitates the simplified, yet rich authoring of new Management Packs using intuitive wizards, as well as the editing of existing Management Packs in a fraction of the time it would take if done manually. Limited availability of knowledgeable IT professionals familiar with the complexity of Management Packs can lead to storms of unwarranted alerts and delayed implementation time. MP Studio greatly reduces the complexity of Management Pack authoring and customization while maintaining flexibility and control through an intuitive, easy-to-use interface.

MP Studio then facilitates the management of these Management Pack changes throughout the lifecycle, with extensive capabilities for testing, tuning, version control, documentation and audit tracking. MP Studio's new workflow automation capabilities announced today provide integrated guidance on Silect's Best Practices Methodology for Management Pack workflow. These enhancements help companies bring ITIL/MOF best practices to Management Pack implementation and change management and achieve greater efficiency in managing Management Packs.

For Configuration Manager/DCM environments, this new release of CP Studio will include a primary repository of Configuration Packs for centralized version management as well as backup and change history. These new capabilities help companies bring ITIL/MOF best practices to Configuration Pack implementation and change management and maintain a complete audit trail of all Configuration Pack changes.

Silect's MP Studio and CP Studio enable a marked reduction in the deployment time and ongoing maintenance of Operations Manager and Configuration Manager DCM environments throughout their lifecycle. When looking at a standard deployment, using MP Studio and CP Studio typically yields an annual savings of well over 50% of personnel time - allowing re-allocation of valuable IT staff to other important tasks, thus greatly increasing the efficiency of IT teams as well as the overall System Center deployment.

"Silect's MP Studio and CP Studio are key components of managing any System Center environment," said Robert McBride, Managing Director of Dilignet Pty, Ltd. "As an implementation services provider specializing in System Center Operations Manager and Configuration Manager, we are very excited about the new features of MP Studio and CP Studio. They will help us in the development and management of custom Management Packs for our customers, as well as managing Configuration Packs throughout their lifecycle, thus maximizing the time to value in realizing the benefits of Microsoft System Center."
