Getting IT right for the recoveryNever let a serious crisis go to waste … now is the opportunity to do things you couldn’t do before”. So said Rahm Emanuel, President Obama’s Chief of Staff. Well financial institutions have certainly had their crisis and any organization that uses the economic slowdown to upgrade and standardize its IT systems is bound to be far better placed to make a fast recovery when the time is right.

Scense en DHS Informatisering sluiten reseller overeenkomst Luc Prenen, commercieel directeur DHS vertelt: “Sinds 2008 hebben wij een zeer sterke focus op het ontwikkelen en aanbieden van het VDI-concept. Zoals bekend is de Virtual Desktop Infrastructure een tegenhanger van het Citrix concept. Naar onze mening heeft VDI zeer veel voordelen, voor zowel de ICT-afdeling van onze klanten, als de eindgebruikers zelf. Klanten zijn meestal niet genoodzaakt bestaande apparatuur, zoals desktops en tokens, te vervangen en eindgebruikers kunnen voortaan écht altijd en overal op een veilige manier bij hun applicaties en informatie. Dat is wat je wilt.” Scense 7 launchedScense, the Netherlands’ fastest-growing provider of User Workspace Management solutions, launches Scense Release 7.Rotterdam, March 2010.
