SAN DIEGO, April 5, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Cireson today releases the free Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager Ticker app as the most recent addition to the company's Configuration Management offerings. Based upon customer feedback and input from the community, admins can now create and deliver announcements from the Configuration Manager Console to be displayed in real time to all clients specified. This announcement can be technical or non-technical in nature and alert organizational members of important announcements.

This free app was inspired by a need for customization options in the current out of the box Configuration Manager. Now, admins can create any kind of announcement desired, such as "Servers going offline at midnight tonight for maintenance" or "Windows 10 upgrades begin Monday at 5:00pm". These announcements can appear in whatever text color and background color desired to make them stand out on the end user's display. Priorities can be set as well to help the end user identify the importance level of the announcement. With very easy installation and use, important messages can be delivered in real time, as well as appear according to a configured schedule, to a desired audience.

Commenting on this new free app, Wally Mead, Cireson's Principal Program Manager explains, "I'm extremely confident that the Configuration Manager community will find the Ticker app of great benefit to them in keeping their end users informed of important issues and notices, thus helping increase end user satisfaction and reduce help desk calls." Wally Mead is considered one of the foremost experts on Configuration Manager after 20+ years working with Microsoft and focusing on this technology.

This app represents the latest free solution by Cireson that was built with the community in mind. As the eighth free app available and the second free Configuration Manager app developed by the team, Cireson is extremely excited to continue to innovate and develop new solutions within the configuration management space in their drive to make your working life ridiculously more productive.
