ManageEngine continues our weekly blog series called Talk to ME Tuesday. Each week we discuss interesting topics from the world of technology with you, the people that live and breathe it everyday. 

Years ago, Scott Rich, now VP of IT for Avantguard Monitoring Centers, a wholesale alarm monitoring central station, started a company of his own. It was then he learned about ManageEngine which was at that time in its infancy. As he came into his new position at Avantguard, he looked back at ManageEngine and really liked the way the company had grown.

“For the price and features that you get, you can’t beat it,” said Rich in conversation with Arvind Parthiban, Senior Product Manager of ManageEngine at the 2012 Interop conference in Las Vegas.

To oversee their infrastructure Avantguard uses ManageEngine’s products ServiceDesk Plus, OpManager, and ADSelfService Plus, said Rich who admits to loving the simplicity of the products.

“I don’t have to go through a huge manual to learn how to use it,” he said.

“There’s only two of us in the IT department and we handle the entire infrastructure,” said Rich. “With the infrastructure we have today, we just couldn’t do it with just two of us without the ManageEngine product.”
