| About SAAS |
In the beginning every user used a terminal connected to a server.
Then a revolution, the P.C. This created an administrators nightmare. Processors, memory and
hard disks on every desk. 3 versions of office, Email everywhere, a support and backup disaster!
|
With advances in CPU core technology and fast networks the cycle is complete. Either by moving
your current servers or migrating your system into our server farm you can effectivly consolidate
your applcations and users into the one environment. This provides you with one system, in one place,
with one Backup for one monthly price. Fully scalable to accommodate your growth paterns.
|
All users connect to the system either via PIP's specialised leased lines or standard Internet
connections from anywhere in the world 7 days a week 24 hours a day.

| By utilising PIP's hosting solutions for your business this provides you with unlimited expansion posibilities without the need for capital outlay. It provides you with a growth path that is not limited by capital expenditure. |
| The best example of this is a company that desires to open multiple branches or franchises and utilise the same stock control/accounting system. As the number of branches grow they simply pay for the number of licences they require on a monthly basis. Each branch only requires an Internet connection (wired or Wireless) and a thin client device (PC or Thin Client Terminal). |

| Although most Enterprises maintain their own networks and servers there is still some advantages to utilising hosted technology for particular pilots or projects. |
| A typical example would be - A corporation runs its own IT department and infrastructure but has a special application that requires access from a large number of remote locations. In many cases it is more effiecient and cost effective for these locations to connect to this application via our data centre. The front end of the application may have a web interface which requires infomration to be uploaded and downloaded to legacy databases. We curently perform this task to one of Australias largest Universities. |
