The Brief
Shaw and Underwood are a long standing (having been in business for over 50 years),
well respected company in the field of advertising and public relations. Their Macintosh
and PC computer systems were showing signs of age. The company needed to update
and to utilise a central storage server. Anova was the only firm that suggested a cost
effective solution as an option, rather than immediately looking to install a full
Microsoft enterprise server
The solution
As it transpired after an initial survey replacement of the Windows 95/98 systems was
clearly the best option and Anova was briefed to install seven new Fujitsu Siemens
Windows XP Pro computers, a Workgroupmail Server, an ADSL line
(to replace the existing ISDN), the central storage with back up and to manage the
transition to the new set up and the integration with the Mac systems
The outcome
Anova worked long hours to ensure little downtime, installation of the new system
took just three days. Features of the system particularly appreciated by
Shaw and Underwood are the stability, speed and ease of administration
Ongoing
Shaw and Underwood have just renewed their Anova on-site service / support
agreement, had their Macintosh systems upgraded and tackled some
frustrating Spyware issues
