NETCB

D esigning Business Solutions using Technology is really a process of providing Answers to Business challenges.  NETCB provides a range of solutions that addresses a range of critical business issues most organisations are facing today. By using a carefully selected best breed of technology providers, NETCB provides simplified solutions to often complex business requirements.

NETCB's solutions can be classified under the following disciplines:

• Data Protection
  
• Virtualisation
• Collaboration
• Security and Compliance

These solution disciplines also complement each other without being dependent on one another.  If you implement a document management solution (Collaboration) you need to ensure that a flexible and optimised infrastructure is in place (Virtualisation), you need to ensure that the data is protected and highly available (Data Protection), you also need to ensure that the security and roles provisioning and auditing of access (Security and Compliance) is properly managed and controlled.  You can also implement our solutions as point solutions and develop your maturity of deployment over time.

Often our entry point with a customer will be through one of our collaboration solutions.  Collaboration is about your business and the way you work and get productive to ensure success.  To provide a comprehensive turnkey solution to the customer, we often need to get other critical dependencies resolved through solutions from other disciplines in our total solutions offering

Each one of these disciplines that forms part of our solutions offering solve a range of business critical issues, such as:

• Centralised and Distributed Backups to Disk and Tape across all Operating System, Database and Messaging platforms
