Graham Wayne
Resource Manager at Canadian Department of National Defence

When one of our administrative staff printed a report that used to take 30 to 45 minutes to generate and it came out instantaneously, she wondered if there was a problem with the system. I had to tell her there wasn't: the system was just that much faster.

Sammy Richmond
Systems & Networking Manager at The City of Hammond in Louisiana

Our employees were enthusiastic about jobs that used to run eight hours now being done in ten minutes.
