Roaring Penguin Software Announces Hosted CanIt Integration with Autotask - Integration simplifies billing and anti-spam management for MSPs

OTTAWA, Feb. 4, 2014 /CNW/ - Roaring Penguin Software Inc., makers of the acclaimed CanIt line of anti-spam solutions, today announced that they have completed integration of their Hosted CanIt anti-spam software service with Autotask, the world's leading IT business management platform delivered from the cloud.

CanIt now tightly integrates with Autotask, allowing MSPs and IT Service Providers to bill anti-spam users from within Autotask. The MSP can identify how many e-mail addresses have been seen for each domain filtered through CanIt within Autotask.

"We are very excited about this integration," said Leonard DiCostanzo, Senior Vice President, Community and Business Development at Autotask. "Our joint customers can now easily set up a link between Autotask and the Hosted CanIt anti-spam service and bill their clients directly from Autotask. This gives MSPs the ability to better respond to and service clients'anti-spam needs across their networks."

The completion of the Autotask integration allows MSPs to use the Practice Management Automation tool that they prefer. All the RMM tools that Roaring Penguin Supports are also integrated with Autotask giving the managed solution provider a single command and control center to protect, monitor and manage their clients' networks.

"Fighting Spam is a key deliverable for every MSP.  Being able to remotely monitor and manage a client's email communications infrastructure gives our MSPs and their clients peace of mind, especially when you're talking about the negative impacts of malicious emails and spam," said David Skoll, Roaring Penguin's President and CTO.  "This integration is a first step in reducing the costs that MSPs face in delivering anti-spam."

Autotask and Roaring Penguin Software will be hosting a webinar sharing security and other issues around spam, and how the integration operates on March 5, 2014.
