Computer Configurations appoints integration partner

Johannesburg, 19 Oct 1999

CCH enterprise platform solutions company, Computer Configurations (Pty) Ltd has appointed MIP as its first solution integration partner. MIP, a specialised software development house, commands a dominant position for Progress-based solutions in the health care management, property management and financial administration markets. In terms of the partner relationship, MIP will bundle its Astragen solution on a Sun hardware platform sourced from Computer Configurations (CC). MIP customers will have access to the service and engineering support from CC.

"The Sun platform has proved to be most successful for MIP`s software solutions," says MIP Holdings MD, Don Elliott. "The Astragen solutions operate in mission critical environments, which makes the support of a robust and powerful platform such as Sun non-negotiable."

CC`s integration partner will see the company in further co-operation with software solution providers in industry niches, says CC sales director, Jim Jeffrey. "MIP is a company delivering quality software applications that are critical to its clients` business. By providing an integrated, fully supported solution, these mission critical environments are with proactive system monitoring to ensure disk and memory capacity, on-site support from trained engineers, system tuning and performance maximisation, and training for operators."

MIP sought a Sun supplier that could provide a higher level of support than conventional resellers, says Elliott. "The value offering that CC and the CCH group can provide our customers is unmatched. Not only will they provide proactive on-site maintenance, but will also be able to make available to our clients a range of services including recovery, desktop integration, storage solutions and systems integration."
