There are indeed some drawbacks (performance, price, learning curve…),
but the Cloud evolves so fast, that those disadvantages will soon be close to none.

Some interesting reading about Cloud hosting vs dedicated servers.

Inzenet has joigned eTIC

eTIC is supported by major actors of the IT sector in Belgium (AWT, ABE, UCM, UNIZO,…), and contains a list of key points that any serious IT Company should address and clarify with its customers before signing a contract.

Those key points, if they are not clarified at the beginning of a contract, could be the source of future disputes. (costs, planning, intellectual property, scalability, adequacy of the service, …..).

The eTIC code simply requires registered companies to address those key points when they make an offer, thus leading to the establishment of transparent and balanced contracts, with a clearly identified scope.

The eTIC code can help customers to identify reliable companies out of the jungle of IT providers (or said-so).

Here is a summary of the code:

  • service adapted to the customer
  • the joint definition of the scope of the project (content, limits and exclusions)
  • cost control and lead time management
  • responsibilities
  • available resources and qualifications brought to bear to accomplish the project
  • sustainability/transferability of the solution or the service
  • intellectual property rights

Inzenet has joigned eTIC on October 19th (details here).

Hosted Exchange at affordable prices

We are really excited to propose a new product, at a bargain price: hosted exchange.

What is hosted exchange ?

Hosted exchange is a collaborative solution to manage and share your emails, calendar, contacts…
With hosted exchange, you use Outlook as email client as usual, but you also get ALL your emails (sent and received), and your calendar, tasks, ect on your iphone, your ipad, on your other computer,via  webmail… and more..
Also, you can share calendars, contacts, tasks… with your collegues.
Exchange is THE professionnal emailing and collaboration software.  Unfortunately, it has always been inaccessible for most small companies, because of its hefty price (maintaining an exchange server cost an arm and a leg…)

Is it Secure ?

Sure, and certainly more than your current solution.
All emails are stored online in the Cloud, on mirrored servers.
If your hard disk crashes or your laptop is stolen, you do not loose your emails…
Can you say the same right now ??

Isn’t it slow ?

Absolutely not, because outlook synchronises things in the background.

How much does it cost ?

The standard mailbox package includes:

  • 25GB of storage space
  • UNLIMITED archiving space with UNLIMITED retention policy (yes you read correctly)
  • Antispam & antivirus included (Barracuda antispam with a very convenient dayly digest, allowing you to easily manage the firewall).
  • 5 aliases
  • Blackberry connector free
  • 1 FREE resource/ room mailbox per account
  • shared folders, distribution lists

7.5€ /mailbox / month !!! 6.8€/month on yearly basis…

Such package uses to cost around 25€/month on the belgian market…

Outlook licence is available as option: 1.85€/month
(= licence to install the latest version of Outlook on your computer + updates to new versions when available !!!)

Hidden costs ? installation ? maintenance ?

No again… it’s easy to install, easy to transfer your current emails, no maintenance…
(Well, i f we need to come at your office to install the computer, that’s of course extra !)

What about Open Source?

After years of big custom applications development, we wished to extend our services offer to smaller businesses. In the meantime, some open source applications have gone very mature, to provide a fantastic code base for small websites: Drupal, Joomla, wordpress, opencart… It’s good, flexible, reliable, and can be cheaper than proprietary solutions…
