IBM are hosting an excellent LotusLive / Cloud computing event in Edinburgh on the 25th February if anyone in our area is interested.

Details are as follows

Cloud Computing is the hottest IT topic for some time,  everyone's talking about it and justifiably so, never before has there been the opportunity to reduce cost whilst removing complexity and risk from your business so easily and efficiently .  IBM is already a pioneer and leader in this field with numerous offerings and awards won.  LotusLive, our eMail and Collaborative Cloud based solution is  Winner of the Enterprise 2.0 Cloud Computing  Choice Award by  Technology Buyers and was recently voted CRNs “2009 Best Product for Cloud Computing”.

With prices starting from only £2 per user per month why don't  you find out for yourself what all the fuss is about?  I would like to personally invite you to attend a free Software as a Service (SaaS) seminar to see how IBM's LotusLive Portfolio can help enable your business for online email and collaboration techniques.

Enabling your business to operate smarter by delivering critical business services via cloud computing, IBM offers you a full range of collaboration and communication solutions, with a spectrum of integrated technology capabilities, providing access to resources via the IBM cloud, your private cloud, or an integration of both to suit an on-premise/cloud hybrid model, if preferred.

This workshop introduces LotusLive, IBM’s cloud based portfolio of corporate social networking and collaboration services designed to help simplify and improve your business interactions with customers, partners, suppliers and colleagues both inside and outside your firewall. LotusLive has been designed with your business' security, flexibility and growth in mind and includes business critical features such as e-mail, web conferencing, instant messaging, corporate social networking, activity management, file sharing & control and more, delivered through models that enable your business to work smarter.

Come and see how LotusLive, *IBMs award winning e-mail and collaboration software, can help you to achieve the benefits that cloud based solutions can deliver, such as:
  • A reduction of your IT costs
  • An improvement of your capital utilisation.
  • A reduction in your provisioning cycle time from weeks to minutes
