Alberta Agriculture, Food and Rural Development Ministry
The Alberta Agriculture, Food and Rural Development Ministry (AAFRD)
launched a 30,00-page Web site, “Ropin the Web” which supports the
province's expansive farming community by providing essential
information and services on topics ranging from marketing and
engineering to crop management. Ropin' the Web hosted 1.7 million
visitors last year, however their previous Token Ring/Ethernet
network suffered from repeated breakdowns, causing delays for
researchers and impeding postings of farming developments to the Web.
To restore the efficacy of its operations and its Web site, AAFRD
sought an affordable, higher-speed network solution.
ecwebworks
ecwebworks, a web-based service company, was growing and relocating
to a new facility and decided to evaluate their communications system
for their new offices. The old legacy phone system was unreliable,
costly to maintain, and lacked the features required for delivering
customer service. ecwebworks decided to implement the 3Com® NBX® 100
Communications System for its simplicity of operation and cost while
delivering dependable, 24-hour support to its clients.
Accounts Recovery Corp
Accounts Recovery is a long-established, privately-held collection
agency. By early 2001, the company’s phone costs, including charges
for local Centrex services and long distance calling, had ballooned
to more than $45,000 a month. By implementing the 3Com® SuperStack® 3
NBX® Networked Telephony solution, Accounts Recovery Corp. has
already almost halved its telephone costs – a total projected savings
of more than $20,000 a month.
Travelodge
The Saskatoon Travelodge Hotel has one of the highest occupancy rates of any hotel in western Canada, accommodating thousands of business travelers each year. However, the Saskatoon Travelodge was only
providing traditionally slow dial-up Internet access to corporate travelers. The hotel was able to bolster customer service by deploying 3Com® product to create a high-speed wireless Internet connection for guests.
OnlineConservatory.com
OnlineConservatory.com is redefining the way music is taught and played by hosting live lessons over the Internet. 3Com's SuperStack® II Switch 3300 and OfficeConnect® Firewall DMZ provide the start-up with an affordable solution for a secure corporate network.
CancerCare Manitoba
CancerCare Manitoba is a government-sponsored organization responsible for cancer detection, treatment and research in the province of Manitoba. They have more staff than they can reasonably house in the space available, therefore a new building is under construction next door to the original facility. CancerCare wanted a solution that would supply fast, reliable technology and provide all of their staff with access to the CancerCare patient databases as they moved from building to building. With 3Com's AirConnect® Wireless LAN, CancerCare staff have instant access to crucial patient information while allowing them to spend more time with their patients.
