Toshiba surges to 2nd place market share in IP Telephony for Q3/2008!
 
Toshiba LOGOInfotech reports Toshiba garnered 16% market share for IP-enabled business phone systems delivered to US businesses in Q3/2008.  (Toshiba is second only to Cisco.)
 
 
High market share indicates buyer confidence in brand and product - and provides assurance that you won't be stranded with a technology orphan whose maker operated unprofitably, leaving unsupportable dead-end orphaned systems in its wake - like Comdial, Dash, COM21, Panasonic DBS, Vodavi, and many others.
 
Survive the recession by equipping your business with affordable & powerful communications tools to let you accomplish more - in less time, with less staff, and less effort!  Remote workers (home-shoring), 1 number access, mobility integration, unified messaging, call center, hot-desking, fax-mail, and presence management are just a few ways we can help you be more productive.
 
Let Synertel and Toshiba equip your business with a flexible, forward-looking IP/digital/Analog/SIP enabled communication platform today!

Synertel Managed WorkPlace -Proactive Recession  Cost Savings!
 
When times are tough, businesses look to control operating costs and reduce risk. Synertel Managed Workplace is a powerful tool for proactively detecting and avoiding network, server, printer, and workstation problems - BEFORE they impact productivity.  SMW provides monitoring, alerting, proactive network tuning, plus remote and onsite services to detect and solve problems before they become catastrophes.
 
Monitoring can detect hundreds of things - and make as big or little a deal about them as you want.  Examples include
 
- low disk space,
- printers about to run out of toner
- security patches that didn't apply
- viruses found and quarantined
- LAN traffic jams,
- if your website is ever down
-   if an employee installs personal software on a company PC.
 
 
SMW can serve as a radar screen for your existing IT staff - with all alerts and tickets flowing to your staff, or we can take shared or full responsibility for monitoring, managing, and intervening.  Every minute of IT downtime costs your organization in lost productivity -- even before the cost of solving the problem. Let us help trim those costs.
 
If you think network management is a luxury in tough times -- you may be thinking tactically, not strategically! A small wise investment in proactive monitoring avoids larger (and more variable) costs of being reactive.
 
SMW can even monitor your telephone system and voicemail!  For more details, call 415 746 1811 or email managedworkplace@synertel.com.
