 With corporate users worldwide staying entrenched in the XP world through Vista's unglamorous rise to mediocrity, Microsoft knew that there needed to be some compelling reasons to move to Windows 7 for business users. Forget the fact that it's simply a better operating system (as was Vista), why would businesses actually want/need to move from good 'ol XP?
The release of the Windows 7 RC (Release Candidate) has sparked a flurry of interest from the corporate world, by comparison to the launch of Vista. This time around, Windows 7 is poised to provide real, tangible benefits to home and business users alike. When you couple it with Server 2008R2, a raft of fantastic new features emerge. In coming weeks and months we'll be aiming to keep this news flowing through our site, so corporate Australia can make an educated decision on when (not if), to upgrade to Windows 7. As a primer, Microsoft has released THIS useful client feature comparison showing some of the key capability differences between XP, Vista and Windows 7. DOWNLOAD IT now and see for yourself. If you haven't already installed the RELEASE CANDIDATE, grab a spare PC or a Virtual Machine and have a go yourself! |

JASCO's Microsoft/Polycom/NET Unified Communications Pilot Program  Unified communications help businesses of all sizes streamline communications and information delivery, delivering higher efficiency and performance. Delays in the chain of collaboration are minimized or eliminated, resulting in better, faster interaction and service-delivery for the customer, and cost savings for the business. Unified communications allows for easier, more direct collaboration between co-workers, suppliers and customers, regardless of their location. Multi-party video communications and conferencing can deliver significant reductions in business travel, while at the same time increase the frequency and quality of collaboration. This has the effect of increasing the productive time available, while reducing an organization's associated carbon footprint.
Realising that such revolutionary technologies are often difficult to visualise, JASCO has teamed with Microsoft, Polycom and NET to create 3 pilot offerings that will allow you to trial the technology in your own workplace for 30 days. Read on for full details and pricing, or DOWNLOAD a PDF brochure. |

Data Protection, Not Data Backup.JASCO is excited to announce the launch of the e-fort Effortless Data Protection hosted service. e-fort is the first fully Australian, secure hosted data protection and recovery service, specifically designed with Microsoft server and application requirements in mind. e-fort is designed and built to provide a realtime, seamless, non-invasive data protection solution; based on the best technologies and services currently available. For as long as computers have played a part in business, effectively protecting corporate data has been an ongoing issue. More often, this responsibility has fallen to legacy tape backup solutions, themselves plagued by a wide array of problems. We have all heard the stories; "Sorry, but I cant restore your data because the tape is corrupt...". With e-fort, you never have to worry about this again. e-fort is built using the latest in software and hardware technologies, eliminating the need for tape backup. Using the latest in redundant hard disk storage systems from EMC, coupled with Microsoft's Data Protection Manager 2007 and secured by the power of CISCO secure networking devices, e-fort provides total security and protection of today's business data. e-Fort is not a backup solution, it offers much, much more. e-fort provides a true data protection and recovery service that ensures all stored data is available and retrievable with exactly the same attributes with which the data was originally stored. e-fort enables world-class levels of data protection to be offered, for the first time, to all organisations that use Microsoft Server and application software; from the largest Enterprise to SME customers, traditionally unable tim implement reliable data protection solutions because of budgetary constraints. To get a full understanding of the e-fort hosted data protection service, please visit www.e-fort.com.au |
