Learn Something New Every Day

By Stephanie Jones | February 21, 2008

VISI is bursting into the webinar world with three new webinars during the month of March. And the chance to win a Nintendo Wii! More details about the Wii in a bit. We’ve been busy launching new products and we want to make sure you know about them. To facilitate this, we set up webinars.

Title: “Unwanted Guests: Best Practices for Network Security”.
Date: Wednesday, March 12, 2008
Time: 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM CDT

Most network security solutions, including IDS/IPS appliances, do not meet the needs of small and medium sized businesses. They are simply too complex, too costly and too difficult to maintain. Alternatives exist to address the unique needs of the SMB market through the three essential cornerstones of a successful yet practical network protection solution: people, process and technology.

Reserve your webinar seat now for the Managed Intrusion Detection Service webinar.

Title: “Exchange 2007: Revisit Your Email”.
Date:Thursday, March 20, 2008
Time: 12:00 PM - 12:30 PM CDT

Without collaboration, it’s just email. Email alone is simply not enough. In short, you need to collaborate.

VISI now offers the ability to share addresses, schedules, files and tasks in a single feature-rich email client from Microsoft: Hosted Exchange 2007. Learn more about VISI’s Hosted Microsoft Exchange 2007 services in this 30-minute webinar.

Title: “Microsoft SharePoint: Spreading Corporate Knowledge”.
Date: Wednesday, March 26, 2008
Time: 12:00 PM - 12:30 PM CDT

Join us for 30 minutes to learn how Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services v3.0 can help your company improve organizational effectiveness, facilitate information-sharing across department boundaries and establish corporate intra- and extranets. Hang on tight as we take you for a tour of what’s possible.

Now for the Wii. Attend any of the VISI webinars and you’ll be entered into a drawing for a Nintendo Wii!

11 Non-Profits Chosen

By Stephanie Jones | February 19, 2008

Eleven non-profits were announced yesterday as being the recipients of brand new websites - at the cost of losing one night of sleep. As mentioned in a previous post, VISI is a presenting sponsor of Sierra Bravo’s F1 Overnight Website Challenge, so we are thrilled for these non-profits getting the websites and tools needed for their organizations.

Check out more about the non-profits chosen here.
