LANDesk


Bump from speedy. I cleaned up the adcopy, so it's no longer spam. Borderline notability though. —Quarl (talk) 2007-02-18 09:40Z 
 * Delete for no assertion or citation of notability. Given good references, I'd be happy to change my "vote", but as it exists, no reason to assume this is anything but a tiny unit of a large company. -Markeer 13:40, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep changed my vote based on Crypticfirefly's added citations, although I'd still like to see more (or, arguably, any) assertion of notability per WP:CORP -Markeer 14:56, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Looks good enough to me per WP:CORP "A company, corporation, organization, group, product, or service is notable if it has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works...." There are many, many product review articles about this company. Crypticfirefly 13:27, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete no assert of notability, no external references, now owned by Intel anyway --Steve (Slf67)talk 08:38, 19 February 2007 (UTC) Weak keep dull as dishwater, enterprise computing product but the added information means it can stay --Steve (Slf67)talk 22:23, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. I've heard of this company, and since I am not an IT professional, perhaps this is evidence that it is a large & well-known company.  Also, according to the linked company website it is not owned by Intel, it is now owned by Avocent. Crypticfirefly 06:18, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Followup: I did some checking, and this is indeed a well-known company with a worldwide presence. The reason some people may not be familiar with it is that its products apparently are used for managing large corporate computer networks.  I found references to several articles on it in German and Spanish on top of a vast number of articles in English in various IT publications.  An Amazon.com search shows that a couple of books have been written about how to use some of their products and LANDesk is referenced in many others. Crypticfirefly 04:38, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
