Heads up IT Staff: It's Time to Start Roving with Your iPad

Taking full advantage of the iPad's portability, large multi-touch screen and Apple's Push Notification Service, Rove Mobile Admin provides users with immediate notification of issues, and access to the industry's most comprehensive suite of functionality for incident notification, diagnosis, triage and resolution from a mobile device.

"Rove Mobile Admin on my iPad lets me check into things extremely quickly and diagnose problems right on the spot, so no matter where I am I never have to worry about finding a computer or a network to get the essential details of an incident," said Erik Woodland, Technical Support Supervisor and Network Administrator for Fenner Drives, a leading manufacturer of products for industrial power transmission, motion transfer and conveying applications. "We can respond faster and be more productive with Rove - we have it loaded up on our entire IT staff's iPads!"

"Rove Mobile Admin combined with an iPad is a real game changer for the IT support discipline," said Russell Ure, President and COO, Rove. "Rove gives users much improved situational awareness plus the power to address issues and requests as they arise from wherever they are. Many of our customers are looking to realize this immense potential for improved efficiency and effectiveness in short order and are rapidly adopting our solution for this purpose."

Users with an iPad plus a smartphone are free to access their network with whichever device they are carrying at the time. Their Mobile Admin user profile remains the same, enabling them to transition seamlessly between the devices used during their work day and off hours.
