概述
“We have a lot of responsibilities when it comes to the oil and gas industry, with our overriding vision being to enhance the performance of the world’s energy industry,该公司的数据经理说. “We provide quite a bit of support for the oil and gas industry around the world.

In addition to global reach, Park Place provides us with significant cost savings.
“It’s really straightforward when it comes to the difference in cost of maintenance contracts for OEM support compared to the cost of Park Place support. I’d say pretty much in every case that we’ve had an opportunity to evaluate cost, we easily save 50 percent from the OEM cost, 在某些情况下, 更.”

Parkview的单窗格玻璃
公司利用 侨福硬件监控™, which identifies hardware events, opens tickets and triages the issue.
“我们一直在使用ParkView, predominantly supporting our storage subsystems with NetApp and EMC, 我们的两个主要存储提供商. ParkView is the proactive monitoring that gives us a single pane of glass for all of our systems that are under third party support,数据经理说. “Park Place will notify us for issues with systems that are being monitored through ParkView. Generally, in those cases we find out about problems that we didn’t know about. 不管我们用什么机制, whether it’s through the online Central Park portal tickets, or admission escalations through our account management team, the support is always fast and very consistent.”
