Wide Area Networks

As companies expand, they often need to connect to branch offices, for both voice and data. The complexity of these connections can sometimes be mind-boggling, and many network integrators are poorly equipped to handle design, installation, and troubleshooting on such systems.

VentureNet is strong at WAN engineering and connectivity. We're a Cisco Premier Partner, which shows the level of technical confidence that Cisco has placed in us. Many of our clients have grown into multiple locations, and have successfully entrusted their connectivity projects to VentureNet.

Internet Connectivity and Security

The Internet has changed the face of business as we know it, and the revolution has just begun. More and more commerce happens across the internet. More and more information is exchanged through internet links. More and more businesses are permanently connected to the internet, both for browser access, e-mail, and information publishing.

Usually, the costs incurred in connecting a business to the internet can be repaid very quickly through time savings, additional sales, more economical purchasing, or improved customer service. VentureNet knows how to connect you to the internet using the right technology for your needs, cost-effectively, and with minimal disruption to your business.

This explosion of internet connectivity also brings higher security risks. Hacking is becoming a full-time sport, and sophisticated tools can help 16-year-olds with an attitude gain access to your sensitive corporate data.

VentureNet can help evaluate your exposure, then design and implement security procedures and firewalls to protect your company from data destruction or theft.

Microsoft Exchange Server

Microsoft Exchange Server has redefined groupware productivity tools. Exchange Server integrates E-mail, Calendaring and Scheduling, Task management, Contact management, and collaborative information folders.

Exchange Server can streamline communication and workflow, both within a company and with clients and vendors.

The majority of VentureNet clients rely on Exchange Server for running their business.

Fax Server Solutions

A FAX server can make financial sense in many companies, allowing users to send faxes from their desktops rather than having to print, look up the phone number of the recipient, walk to the fax machine, wait in line, send the fax, then call to make sure the person received it.

Inbound faxing into each person's e-mailbox is now a possibility, as well. High-end Direct Inward Dial (DID) fax boards, in conjunction with Zetafax software and Microsoft Exchange Server, can provide each user in the company with their own personal fax number. Incoming faxes are deposited directly into the users' inbox for viewing, forwarding, or printing.

VentureNet is a Zetafax partner, and can help you evaluate the costs and returns of an integrated fax solution.

Microsoft Terminal Server

Problem: A company needs to run standard, off-the-shelf software applications across slow (inexpensive) links like dial-up, frame relay, or the internet. Solution: Microsoft Terminal Server.

Terminal Server allows users at remote sites to use standard applications that are located at a central, or host site. Need to enter a sales order into your accounting software when you're in a hotel in Caracas? No problem! How about giving all 10 people in your Toledo office access to your custom database, all over a single 56k frame relay link? Easy!

VentureNet has pioneered Terminal Server for over a year, and can help you design and install a successful project!

Computer Telephony Integration

Voice and data services are converging. Current technology allows users to interact with computers and phones almost interchangeably. PC's can be used to receive voice mail, handle calls, and configure features.

Companies who have data connections via frame relay or leased lines can now piggyback voice calls on those same circuits simultaneously, thus eliminating long distance charges between sites.
