Client
Most IT organizations struggle with the complexities of managing and supporting their client computer resources. A lack of standardization, management tools, and processes translate directly into higher support costs and loss of end user productivity. This has a measurable effect on the business bottom line. A consistent and automated process is the single most important factor in the success of managing the client computing environment.
Gartner Research found that leveraging best practices leads to an 18% - 26% reduction in total cost of ownership. However, most companies do not take the time to define best practices and processes to manage their client computing environment. That’s where Nirico can help. Nirico assists its customers in building and maintaining processes, selecting appropriate tools, constructing automation scripts, and providing detailed documentation to build and deploy standardized configurations and processes. This reduces support overhead with its associated costs and increases end user productivity.

Server
Businesses
rely heavily on server and application
access for business systems, critical
data, and communication and collaboration
capabilities. Messaging and workgroup
collaboration have become a crucial
element in enabling employee productivity.
In many organizations, e-mail communication
is more important than the use of a
phone. The bottom line – users need
persistent access to their data and
applications to do their job. And with
the growing use of mobile/wireless technologies,
the expectation for ‘anytime, anywhere’
is becoming routine. To support these
growing demands and expectations, a
robust, scalable server environment
is required. Nirico specializes in server
design and deployment services that
allow organizations to rapidly deploy
new technology to support their business.
We concentrate on deploying solutions
correctly the first time in a manner
that reduces the ongoing management
costs for the organization – and our
experience makes it a low-risk endeavor
for the client.
File and Print
Businesses still devote a majority of its server infrastructure to traditional File and Print services that have existed for years. Nirico adds value in helping customers apply best practices in designing server architectures that incorporate intelligent file system designs, standardized naming conventions, robust WINS and DNS architectures. Nirico then provides the customer with a management framework and toolset to ensure that the File and Print environment is manageable and continues to meet the performance requirements of the end user.
Nirico also has experience in migrating File and Print services from one network operating environment to another. Nirico has migrated organization from Novell to Microsoft networks and Windows NT to Windows 2003.
Enterprise
Messaging
Messaging has become a “Mission
Critical” application in most
organizations. Not only does it
facilitate communication,
collaboration, and scheduling within
your organization, it also enables
workers to conduct business with
clients, customers, suppliers and
partners.
Power of real-time communication,
knowledge sharing, and collaboration,
Exchange 2003 is one of the most
feature-rich products Microsoft has
ever developed. At the same time,
upgrading your messaging system and
installing Windows 2003 Active
Directory makes Exchange 2003 one of
the most challenging Microsoft
products to implement. By realizing
the benefits of enhanced messaging and
collaboration that Exchange 2003 can
provide means effectively integrating
Exchange 2003 with Windows 2003 and
finding the technical resources with
the time and the skills to configure a
solution that meets your specific
needs - getting it right the first
time.
Nirico's Exchange 2003 services
provide a comprehensive strategy for
developing a reliable, scalable,
easy-to-manage messaging and
collaboration infrastructure. The key
to a successful Active Directory
implementation is planning. That’s
why Nirico’s Exchange 2003 services
use a systems lifecycle approach – to
ensure proper planning, design, and
ultimately, deployment of your
Exchange 2003 solution.
High Availability
Customers have increasingly deployed mission-critical applications on server-based computing devices to leverage the cost advantages of relatively inexpensive technologies. However, this cost savings often came at the price of increased downtime and unreliability, impacting business operations. Combining with
Nirico's experience in technologies such as clustering, RAID, failover, redundant systems, SAN and NAS technologies, etc. allow our customers to have very high uptime and availability for critical business systems.
