Hornbill and FastPassCorp announce OEM Partner agreement
April 21st, 2010 -- Automation of password resets brings efficiency benefits to Supportworks users
The partnership gives Hornbill customers access to the FastPass leading edge technology for enterprise password self-service. There is huge potential in the marketplace today for self-service solutions and password self-service is a logical area of focus.
Forgotten passwords rank highly as one of the most frequent calls to the IT service desk. The FastPass enterprise password self-service enables end-users to swiftly and securely overcome a forgotten password situation and continue their daily work.
Jesper Østergaard, Founder of FastPassCorp commented, "FastPassCorp's worldwide customers have realized significant cost savings and productivity gains by partnering with us and adopting our enterprise self-service solutions. We are proud that Hornbill has chosen FastPass and feel confident that the joint solution will bring significant growth to both companies, but most of all, customers will reap the benefit of a solution that leverages two best–of-breed technologies".
Hornbill's Supportworks IT Service Management software provides the optimum combination of business process automation, functionality and flexibility, delivering a comprehensive ITIL-compatible solution that satisfies most IT service management requirements out of the box. Supportworks' integration with FastPass results in seamless management of forgotten password calls, their logging and resolution, without the intervention of service desk staff.
Gerry Sweeney, Hornbill CEO, commented "Automation of password resetting is a valuable addition to Supportworks' capabilities. Hornbill strives endlessly to improve the experience for its customers and our partnership with FastPass provides a simple solution that reduces the burden on the service desk and boosts end-user productivity. We’re delighted to be offering this enhancement to our customers."
