| Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 is
here!
Vitale Caturano recently participated in
Microsoft's Boston CRM 4.0 launch event. Sue
Bernier, director of Vitale Caturano's ERP and CRM group
and Mike Williams, manager, hosted a lunch meeting with
clients to discuss how CRM can be integrated into their
existing accounting system and how CRM can further their
business goals. Dynamics CRM can help sales,
service and marketing professionals remain
competitive. Benefits include: growing your sales
pipeline in a challenging economy, enhancing customer
service capabilities, and eliminating re-keying sales
orders into your accounting systems.

| Virtualization |
|
|
If you want to significantly lower your IT costs by
reducing the number of servers and related IT hardware
in the data center, Virtualization is the
solution. Virtualization makes it possible to
break the legacy "one application to one server"
model. This solution can also help IT
administrators spend less time on repetitive tasks such
as provisioning, configuration, monitoring and
maintenance. And, you can eliminate planned
downtime and recover quickly from unplanned
outages.
Vitale Caturano offers a low cost, low risk program
to introduce your organization to virtualization
technology built on VMware. As a VMware Enterprise
Partner, we bring a wealth of experience, and through
our partnerships with Cisco, HP, and Dell (EqualLogic)
we can handle the end to end aspect of virtualization
including networking and storage. Our engineers
have experience implementing solutions around disaster
recovery, high availability, application delivery,
etc.
In addition, we're offering a Virtualization
seminar on May 13th at 4:00 p.m. Specialists from
our firm, as well as Dell (EqualLogic), and VMware will
share their insights and provide demonstrations.
Together we can help you determine if Virtualization is
for you. We hope you will join us for cocktails
and hors d'oeuvres following the event. Register
