]]> Computer Hardware Computer Networks Computer Software Mobile Communications Telecommunications WebWireID152195 Article Multiven Files Antitrust Complaint Against Cisco Systems with Swiss Competition Commission http://www.webwire.com/ViewPressRel.asp?aId=152133 Mon, 30 Jan 2012 11:14:24 EST ZURICH, Switzerland. – Monday, January 30, 2012, Multiven GmbH ('Multiven') today filed an antitrust complaint against Cisco Systems ('Cisco') with the Swiss Competition Commission, in an effort to open up the network maintenance services marketplace for Cisco equipment, promote free and fair competition while enhancing consumer choice and value. Multiven's complaint alleges that Cisco abuses its dominant position to harm consumers by bundling and tying software bug fixes, patches and updates ("software updates") for its operating system and application software to its maintenance services ('SMARTnet') and through a series of other illegal exclusionary and anti-competitive acts designed to maintain Cisco's monopoly in the network maintenance services market for Cisco networking equipment, which represents 75% of the world's Internet infrastructure.



The complaint recites that instead of making these necessary software updates available to all customers that have purchased its operating system and application software licenses, as does Apple, Hewlett-Packard, Microsoft and many others, Cisco makes these software updates only available to those customers that have purchased its SMARTnet service.

The complaint further alleges that Cisco also engages in a series of illegal exclusionary and anti-competitive acts such as (but not limited to);

  • Cisco coercing its 52,000 reseller partners to refuse-to-deal with Multiven and not resell better quality and/or lower cost services from Multiven – an Independent Service Organization ('ISO') – that competes with Cisco SMARTnet,
  • Cisco voiding the software licenses of customers that install their valid Cisco software on genuine Cisco equipment procured from Cisco-independent sources.


 
These acts aimed at preventing competitors like Multiven from servicing Cisco networking equipment have had the following anti-competitive and injurious effects in the Swiss marketplace for Internet network services:

  • Competition in the market for service and maintenance of Cisco networking equipment has been suppressed and virtually eliminated. Additionally, ISOs have been effectively precluded from competing for and earning profits on the servicing of Cisco networking equipment.
  • Customers have been deprived choice and forced to purchase Cisco SMARTnet maintenance services over that of substantially better quality and/or lower priced maintenance services from ISOs like Multiven; and
  • Consumers have been harmed because supracompetitive prices have been maintained and increased, and the quantity, quality and choice of service offerings in the marketplace has been reduced and constrained.


 
Multiven's requested remedies are intended to give consumers greater freedom, choice and cost savings while ensuring that the network maintenance services marketplace develops into an open, fair and competitive industry where Cisco competes solely based on the quality and value of its services.



Multiven is represented by Schellenberg Wittmer - led by Dr. Jürg Borer and Dr. Juhani Kostka.



About Multiven

Headquartered in Zurich, Switzerland, Multiven is the leading provider of affordable maintenance services for all Internet networks. Through its advocacy group, Multiven is leading a global industry-wide effort to open up the multi-Billion dollar per annum Internet network maintenance services marketplace to free and fair competition which will lead to lower operational and capital expenditure for network operators and a reduced Internet voice, video, TV and data costs for consumers.

DES MOINES, IA, January 25, 2011 – LightEdge Solutions is pleased to announce that it has completed the necessary network egress to allow HealthNet connect-affiliated hospitals and clinics to access enterprise-grade Cloud Computing services over the fiber-optic network initiated by Iowa Health Systems.  HNc members can now leverage the true potential of this high-speed network by tapping into secure, managed cloud IT services, such as, Virtual Servers, Data Storage and Backup platforms, Unified Communications and Network Security hosted from LightEdge's state-of-the-art data center in Altoona, IA. LightEdge is currently the only certified vendor able to offer managed IT services over the HNc network. 

HealthNet connect offers hospitals and clinics bandwidth speeds up to 100 Mbps to ensure that rural and urban healthcare facilities alike have access to the necessary infrastructure and bandwidth to readily exchange healthcare information, images and video to provide collaborative care for patients.   The ability to utilize such a network allows care groups involving multiple locations to make better decisions about how to deliver IT services and the location of data storage.

'With the sensitivity and high availability needs of the data related to healthcare,' said Jeff Springborn, president and chief operating officer of LightEdge Solutions. 'The physical and virtual security methods implemented at our data center facilities give LightEdge a unique position to impact the medical community of Iowa by offering access to secure and less costly IT platforms that can be shared across a multitude of clinic sites.'

The 3,200-mile fiber optic network provides services to Iowa Health System's 11 largest hospitals and some network rural hospitals, operating at a 99.999 percent reliability rate and processing more than 8 million transactions per day. The network runs throughout Iowa and spans four states, with direct fiber connections to major metropolitan cities such as Chicago and Denver.

'I was very impressed with how quickly (LightEdge) configured the HNc connection, said Dennis Blazek, IT manager for Clarke County Hospital. 'Their whole technical team has been easy to work with and actually working at the (LightEdge data center) has been much easier than I thought it would be.'

LightEdge has also been selected as the data center to house the infrastructure for Iowa's Health Information Exchange.  The synergy related to LightEdge's involvement with both HIE and HealthNet connect will, over time, enable healthcare entities in Iowa to become more progressive with the use of Information Technology.  The result of which will be an increase in shared medical information, better patient outcomes and reduced costs through shared IT platforms.

]]> Computer Networks Electronic / Internet Commerce Internet Technology WebWireID151490 Article SP Home Run Inc. Evaluates Computer Consulting Conferences and Trade Shows http://www.webwire.com/ViewPressRel.asp?aId=151445 Thu, 12 Jan 2012 01:00:27 EST LAKE WORTH, FL -- Industry experts recommend that owners of computer consulting firms, VARs, and MSPs attend at least two conferences or trade shows per year. There are many conferences to choose from, but some are definitely more relevant than others. SP Home Run Inc. scoped out seven valuable and consistently well-attended conferences in the white paper "Top 7 Computer Consulting Conferences and Trade Shows for Building Great Relationships and Forming Strategic Partnerships." 

The white paper is available for free on the SP Home Run Inc. website at www.sphomerun.com/top-7-computer-consulting-conferences-and-trade-shows


This guide to IT conferences and trade shows was published to help owners of computer consulting businesses, VARs, and MSPs narrow down their short-lists to the most valuable events and choose mandatory sessions. It also explains the benefits of attending these events such as professional development, networking, and raising a company's profile. In addition, the "Top 7 Computer Consulting Conferences and Trade Shows for Building Great Relationships and Forming Strategic Partnerships" white paper includes important details such as:

  • How often each event is held
  • Where each event is normally held and the length of the event 
  • What to expect from each event in terms of keynote speeches, peer-to-peer discussion groups, educational sessions, and technical presentations
  • Costs for attending each event
  • Who should attend each event
  • How to register for each event


"Choosing which conference and trade shows to attend each year can be tricky because events are typically expensive and time-consuming, especially when travel is required," says Joshua Feinberg, Business Development Director of SP Home Run Inc. "However, the benefits of going to even as few as two events per year far outweighs the time you spend away from your business. Regardless of whether you own a computer consulting business, VAR, or MSP, the 'Top 7 Computer Consulting Conferences and Trade Shows for Building Great Relationships and Forming Strategic Partnerships' can help you choose the events that are right for your specific business needs and prepare for attending."

KANSAS CITY, MO, January 11, 2011 – LightEdge Solutions is pleased to announce that it has expanded its full-breadth of managed IT business services and consulting solutions into the Kansas City market.  As the trend of cloud-based IT adoption continues to grow and high bandwidth opportunities become more readily available, LightEdge is confident that it can add valuable Information Technology services to businesses in Kansas City and surrounding suburbs. 
 
Headquartered in Des Moines, IA, LightEdge Solutions was founded in 1996 and subsequently purchased in 2008 by Qwest-founder Phil Anschutz, through his Anschutz Investment Company.  The company began as a traditional Internet Service Provider (ISP), but quickly transitioned to a cloud-based service model when the current management team was added in 2004.  LightEdge was one of the first providers to offer Hosted Voice-over-IP services and was ranked as a 'visionary' in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Unified Communications-as-a-Service for two successive years.  LightEdge was also the nation's first provider of an   integrated BroadSoft VoIP infrastructure with Hosted Microsoft Office Communications Server (OCS) unified communications solution.  Most recently LightEdge has launched a Public/Private/Hybrid cloud server solution based on a Cisco UCS computing environment and VMware.

'The timing for this market expansion could not be more perfect,' commented Jim Masterson, chairman and CEO of LightEdge Solutions. 'We're approaching a convergence of a fundamental adoption of cloud services by the business IT community and an incredible ability to access very affordable high-speed bandwidth through Google's Kansas City fiber initiative.'

During the latter half of 2011, LightEdge added a local sales staff, data center colocation space within the Bryant Building and developed an enterprise-grade Cloud Computing platform based on Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS) and VMware virtualization software in the Kansas City market.  This platform can be used in conjunction with a similar environment located in LightEdge's state-of-the-art, free-standing data center facility located just outside of the Des Moines metro area or as part of a hybrid cloud solution with on-premise compute/storage environments. 

'What we're bringing to the market is a real game-changer for the way businesses look at delivering IT services,' remarked T.J. Bangs, regional vice president of sales for LightEdge.  'Through a consumption-based model we're offering the businesses of Kansas City the ability to simply 'plug in' to enterprise-grade IT services like Cloud Computing, Voice-over-IP, Managed Security and Unified Communications with minimal capex and maximum flexibility.'

In addition to cloud-based IT services, LightEdge has a full-service consulting group and is certified to sell, implement and manage premise-based Cisco and EMC devices.  This unique ability allows LightEdge to fulfill the role of Public, Private and Hybrid cloud, giving a business the ability to leverage compute and storage in the Public cloud to ensure optimal performance during temporary or seasonal usage bursts.
 
For additional details on LightEdge's managed IT service offerings and consulting services for the Kansas City Market please contact LightEdge Sales at 877-771-3343, e-mail info@lightedge.com or visit www.lightedge.com.

]]> Advertising / Marketing Business Announcements Computer Networks Internet Technology Multimedia / Online / Internet WebWireID151372 Article SEH Technology Introduces myUTN-120 SDCardserver http://www.webwire.com/ViewPressRel.asp?aId=151315 Mon, 9 Jan 2012 10:35:37 EST Access and Share Storage Media Across Networks

PHOENIXVILLE, PA (January 9, 2012) – SEH technology, an intelligent network solutions provider, extends its USB device server product line series with the myUTN-120 SDCardserver, a virtual solution for accessing and sharing storage media. The product contains an SD card reader and USB high speed port enabling secure remote access to a number of USB devices via the network. The IPv6-enabled myUTN-120 SDCardserver operates in all Ethernet networks including Gigabit with Windows XP and higher. The myUTN-120 SDCardserver is now available at your reseller for $399.99.

Often in server-based computing (SBC) and desktop-virtualization environments there is no ability for the local usage of SD cards and storage media, making it technically difficult if not impossible. By allowing the controlled use of such storage media and USB devices via a safe point-to-point connection across the network, the myUTN-120 SDCardserver closes the gaps between enterprise IT infrastructures and the world of USB.

'Many enterprise security policies do not allow the utilization of USB devices and SD cards,' states Mike Majewski, President of SEH Technology. 'By offering a broad security package with access control, device assignment, encryption, password protection, port key control and port deactivation, myUTN-120 makes using these devices safer. Network administrators have complete control over accessing USB devices and SD cards in the network.'
