Remote Access SolutionsTailored remote access solutions are specific network configurations that utilise the advantages of remote access software in an office environment. Remote access software allows a user to log on to, view and use their office workstation from another computer located anywhere in the world. Australian Networking Engineers have used this readily available technology to provide advantages for not just clients who travel frequently and require remote access to their office workstations, but also to provide cost effective solutions for use with in the office environment it's self. One example of such a solution was a publishing company running seven workstations using older computers which all needed replacing. Australian networking engineers assessed the situation based on the clients needs and provided two options. The first option was a quotation to replace all seven machines with new machines sporting the latest technology at a cost $11200 for the hardware plus soft costs, individual licensing and installation. The second option was to buy one high end workstation onto which is installed all the programs the business will use including the remote access software. The remaining older workstations are then used to access the central machine which functions as a terminal server. Because the workload is carried by the more robust central machine the older workstations are used to simply view and operate the various applications on the central machine where each individual has their own partitioned workspace. The final cost of this solution including the installation and set up was less than half that of replacing all seven workstations saving the client thousands of dollars while achieving the same result with the added bonus world wide access. Some additional benefits of a remote access solution may be the ability for a book keeper or accountant to work on the company accounts with-out visiting the premises and needing to take up a workstation for the duration of their stay. Our simple solutions mean that it is no longer necessary to send important company accounting data files back and forwards to accountants and the risk of data corruption is thereby greatly minimized. Another option available to business through our remote access solution is that staff can be employed interstate or internationally as in many cases they no longer need to be present in an office to complete their days work. All data remains securely located in the central office so there need for concern about the loss of information when a staff member moves on to other opportunities. In today's tight labour markets these options can be beneficial to a business being able to find available staff as the geographical limitations are removed. Australian Networking Engineers has extremely cost effective remote access solutions that can be deployed quickly and effectively regardless of whether a business is running a server or not. |
