Los Angeles, CA (October 27, 2009) – SmallCart Systems, a provider of optimized IT infrastructure solutions, has announced a strategic partnership with Symantec–a global leader in security, storage, and systems management solutions–to integrate Symantec’s Altiris IT lifecycle management products into SmallCart Systems’ solutions developed for small-to-medium sized businesses.  SmallCart Systems will bundle consulting and implementation services, and other third-party software where appropriate, with Altiris endpoint management technology to create a small-scale ITIL capability that delivers systems stability and security, lower costs, and easy updates and migrations.

SmallCart Systems CEO Jon Unger describes the resulting synergy: “Historically, large enterprise software publishers have struggled to service SMBs cost-effectively.  As a result, these customers have higher IT costs and significant competitive disadvantage.  We have streamlined implementation of the Altiris solution for SMBs to create a small-scale ITIL capability that meets the needs of a huge market.”

Altiris Total Management Suite is the industry’s most comprehensive tool set for managing IT infrastructure.  SmallCart Systems will wield these tools to reduce the cost and complexity to SMBs of owning and managing IT assets, including desktops, servers, notebooks, and handheld devices.  The SmallCart SMB Value Solution will reduce our clients’ operational costs, increase operational efficiencies, and create long-term stability and cost effectiveness.

The SmallCart SMB Value Solution has been proven effective in customer trials and is now available for all small-to-medium sized businesses that need to control IT costs and improve performance. Learn more at www.smallcart.com.
