Business Connexion will launch Africa's first EMC Velocity Signature Solution Centre in May 2008. The centre is being equipped at the Business Connexion Midrand Offices, Block D.
As our clients demand best-of-breed solutions that are integrated and expertly supported, Business Connexion and EMC have consistently demonstrated information infrastructure solutions that meet these needs.
The launch of the EMC Signature Solution Centre within Business Connexion is an additional valuable tool which will allow us to demonstrate exactly how the solution is going work in the client's environment.
According to Vic Booysen: "We are giving our clients real choice and the best of both worlds - the chance to see how the solution would work, without them having to commit any money at all. They can visit the solution centre and see a live demonstration of a similar-sized environment to their own. Giving them the peace of mind that the solution will work when deployed at their organisation.
This is a way for Business Connexion to showcase client-oriented, application-critical solutions that help our clients handle tomorrow's business information challenges. Initially, we will be showcasing solutions that streamline information management in a Microsoft Exchange environment.
Our new Solution Centre will provide convincing proof of our high competence in the implementation of service-oriented IT infrastructures in the Microsoft solution-based environment.
The launch of the Solution Centre ensures our years of experience and successful strategic partnership with EMC and Microsoft is taken to a new level. The application scenarios for various Microsoft Exchange-based environments mean that our clients will discover the advantages of dynamic IT infrastructures. We will also offer migration plans to these dynamic IT solutions which we have developed together with EMC and Microsoft. After all, the centre will not only showcase solutions, but also run scenarios that replicate our clients' environments.
Our EMC Velocity Signature Solution Centre will be equipped with a state-of-the-art briefing room and is designed to host a series of activities that will complement the Solution Centre's value proposition, namely:
* Customer briefings, seminars and workshops
* Live hardware and software demonstrations
* Training and EMC Proven Professional Accreditation
* Execution of complex proofs of concept
* Migration planning
* Benchmark and performance testing
Business Connexion is honoured to be the first EMC partner in Africa to establish a Solution Centre that will represent a framework of technology that demonstrates EMC Proven Solutions backed by implementation methodologies which reduce client risk and ensure faster deployment.
