LAS VEGAS -- Rimini Street, Inc. (Nasdaq: RMNI), a global provider of end-to-end enterprise software support and innovation solutions, the leading third-party support provider for Oracle, SAP, and VMware software, announced Rimini Connect™ Console, a single-pane-of-glass management tool that unifies and simplifies the administration and monitoring of Rimini Connect™, Rimini Street’s industry-leading suite of interoperability solutions.

Immediately available for Rimini Connect™ for Browsers and for additional Rimini Connect solutions in the future, Rimini Connect Console is the latest advancement in Rimini Street’s interoperability solutions suite which are designed to extend the useful life of existing systems by insulating applications from changes in dynamic technology stacks and compatibility standards that may otherwise require costly upgrades or custom development.

Rimini Connect Console unifies and automates several important capabilities into one centralized management tool, including:

· Simplifies monitoring, management, and configuration of Rimini Connect services from a central dashboard
· Provides a real-time view of full deployment of Rimini Connect services and related system resources
· Enables in-depth analysis and diagnosis of logs and alerts from all related servers, offering enterprise-wide single-pane-of-glass visibility
· Streamlines routine administration tasks, such as inspecting and installing new digital certificates

“Maintaining application interoperability with constant updates to dynamic technology stacks is a challenging, costly and never-ending effort that consumes potentially millions of dollars in forced software upgrades or development of custom, highly technical solutions,” said Desmond Whitt, vice president & general manager of Rimini Connect, adding that “Rimini Connect solutions future-proof your enterprise software against interoperability issues and Rimini Connect Console is designed to unify and streamline the monitoring and management of Rimini Connect solutions at scale, beginning with Rimini Connect for Browsers.”

Rimini Connect Helps Businesses Achieve Modernization Without Disruption

Built on Rimini Street’s experience of successfully resolving thousands of compatibility issues for clients since 2005, Rimini Connect provides a suite of seamless interoperability solutions that can resolve compatibility issues without requiring an upgrade of your core enterprise software.

For example, Rimini Connect for Browsers enables IT teams to implement the latest releases of browsers without delay or worry of negative impact to current application releases. It also strategically decouples existing enterprise software from technology stack version dependencies, providing the flexibility needed for organizations to take control of their IT roadmap.

Officeworks, a leading Australian retailer with over 167 stores nationwide and already a Rimini Street client for support of their SAP systems, deployed Rimini Connect for Browsers when Microsoft announced it would retire Internet Explorer 11. They needed to ensure their mission-critical applications would not be jeopardized by the change in browser availability or require an expensive, disruptive upgrade to maintain compatibility.

“This project really was a collaborative experience with the Rimini Street team…. For us, it was about making this transition as seamlessly as possible without any interruption to business, and Rimini Street helped us achieve that,” said Michael Howard, chief operating officer at Officeworks.

“Rimini Connect Console is the latest of our continuously expanding offerings to help organizations achieve their goal of growth and profitability while reducing risk,” said Whitt. “We not only help extend the life of systems, we also help make it easier to manage them, lessening overhead costs and freeing teams to focus on higher value priorities for the business.”
