Our patterns of work have changed, and we now travel to meet clients
and suppliers. No longer do we confine ourselves to working just in
the office, and between 9 and 5. We juggle our lives between family
and our careers, and so AM Consultancy have come up with a number of
solutions to let you work when and where you want.
Home working with Virtual Private Networks
With broadband at home, our Cisco VPN solution allows you to securely
connect to your computer at work, and work away just as thought
you were situated at work, but actually sitting at your home.
The solution operates using some of the most advanced encryption
technologies available today. Please call us for a free demonstration
and explanation
as to how it works and how home working solutions can greatly benefit
your business.
Email to mobile device
As well as mobile telephones, GPRS is also available on certain palm
pilots
GPRS / 3G Mobile internet connectivity
General Packet Radio Service is a technology that allows your phone
to transfer data at moderate speeds. – faster then just a mobile
phone, but generally slower then a modem.
To use GPRS, you need a phone that supports it, a subscription from
your network operator(Jersey Telecom in the case of Jersey Clients)
that supports GPRS, and the proper settings.
General Packet Radio Service does what it says: it sends "packets" of
data over a radio wave (on the GSM network). Because of this, you only
pay for the actual data that is transferred, not the time you have
it on. Therefore you can always be ready to receive emails, but only
pay for those emails you receive.
3G is the latest kind of internet connectivity for mobile devices.
It is significantly faster then GPRS, and is comparable with the
lower end of broadband speeds.
Unfortunately it is not yet available in Jersey and is unlikely
to be until early 2006. Our UK clients can benefit from 3G whilst
in
the UK through the operator “3”.
Combining GPRS / 3G with Virtual private networking allows you to
connect to your office system and operate your office calendar / email
system whilst on the train etc. Please call us for a demonstration,
or to know more about how these technologies can fit into your business.
