SPAM (unsolicited bulk email) has become a huge issue for all connected businesses. Not only does it represent a massive inconvenience, but there are real costs associated with it in the form of increased Internet data costs, unproductive time for staff as they deal with the barrage of junk and the potential for important emails to simply get lost in the fray.

While JASCO has always used and recommended the best in Anti-Spam technology from vendors such as Trend Micro, we still find the need to re-visit the problem time and again for both ourselves and our clients, each time more closely.

The commonly-implemented policy of Delete only the mail that you are 100% certain is SPAM, and tag-and-deliver the rest for closer human inspection, is deemed necessary to avoid too much good mail getting lost, but it also creates an administrative nightmare with at least some members of staff having to wade through 300-400 messages each morning, looking for the proverbial needle (the good message) in the haystack (the junk mail folder).

There simply had to be something else we could do...  

Since attaining Microsoft GOLD Certified Partner status, the team at JASCO has continued to strengthen our relationship with Microsoft as a strategic partner.

One of JASCO’s recent goals has been to extend our skills in VoIP technology and qualify as one of only a handful of Microsoft partners worldwide to achieve the status of “Voice-Ready”. We are now proud to announce our recent achievement of entry into the Unified Communications Voice Partner Program (UC VPP). 

We hope our newly acquired “Voice-Ready” status will highlight to the Microsoft and client communities our willingness to not only adopt and embrace emerging technologies in the exciting new field of Unified Communications, but be a leader in production deployments of them.   As a member of the UC VPP we have access to a wealth of internal Microsoft resources designed to help JASCO to build our skill set, which in turn benefit our customers by providing them with the right answers when it comes to Unified Communications.
