Whaddaya Mean the Software Just Works?
Hubworx launches server software with proactive pay-as-you-go support to prevent IT problems while keeping costs predictable and manageable.
Ayr, United Kingdom (PRWEB) June 30, 2005 -- Hubworx, provider of open source
based business solutions, today announced the immediate availability of Hubworx
Integrated Appliance Software. The new offering is an all-in-one server software
solution that provides network security and management, web-based collaboration
tools, and a thin client server complete with Open Office. The platform is also
available as a pre-installed hardware solution. A free evaluation version is
available for download at www.hubworx.com.
Hubworx Integrated Appliance software
is designed to allow customers to focus on running their business instead of
worrying about IT. That’s why it has built-in intelligence with the ability to
correct many common problems itself. Also included in the offering are
monitoring tools that continually assess the health of the system. If a problem
occurs that can’t be fixed by the system itself, remote support staff will be
alerted to the problem. They will notify the client and ask their permission to
access the system remotely. No confidential data is ever exposed to the support
staff. In most cases the remote support team will call before any user notices a
problem, and the problem is corrected before it has any impact on the
organisation. This saves the client time and significantly reduces the number of
onsite emergency visits required to support the system. Hubworx Integrated
Appliance software does not distract them from the successful running of their
business.
To further prevent IT distractions encroaching on the business
Hubworx bundles a powerful firewall and security software such as server side
antivirus, antispam and web content filtering. Automatic daily updates ensure
the system is always protected against the latest security threats.
“Your
IT system is only as valuable as the productive time you spend using it,” said
Graeme Millar, Managing Director of Hubworx. “Our latest offering allows our
customers to get the most productive use out of their systems by eliminating as
many headaches as possible. Our pay-as-you-go pricing means that our customers
are free to go elsewhere if we do not fulfil that promise, so it’s definitely in
our interests to keep them as satisfied as possible.”
The Hubworx
Integrated Appliance software includes everything needed to manage a network and
create a collaborative environment to boost productivity. The software itself is
free; customers need only pay for Hubworx Managed Support services to guarantee
the continued health of the system, but there are no contracts or commitments
required. Subscribers can choose to activate the combination of modules most
suited to their unique requirements and can cancel at any time. The available
modules are:
Hubworx Network Manager: The Network Manager enables the
sharing of files, printers and Internet connections among multiple users, while
offering the protection of advanced firewall technology. Built-in antivirus,
antispam and content filtering are constantly updated to protect the integrity
of the data on connected PCs.
Hubworx Web Office: A customisable
intranet portal containing a collaborative suite with email and calendaring,
time management and billing, online courses, and a trouble ticketing system. Web
Office allows Hubworx Integrated Appliance users to access their data securely
outside the office from any Internet enabled PC.
Hubworx Thin Client
Manager: The Hubworx Thin Client Manager provides everything required to connect
thin clients to the network, or convert obsolete PCs into thin clients. It
contains a full Linux Graphical Operating System (with similar functionality to
Windows) as well as a suite of Open Source Office Applications.
Hardware
Platform: Hubworx Integrated Appliance software is also available pre-installed
on a powerful hardware platform for those who wish to skip the initial
installation and configuration steps.
