Hope you donāt get the following wrong.
@Andy_Wismer
Of course. Not.
Lot of customers we have (DAX, MDAX, DOW, ā¦), do work with SAP, oracle, salesforce, or any kind of āTOP LIGAā ERP and BIG IT infrastructure. I cannot compete. I really try hard to match their standards. Not only in IT. Iām only a very little supplier.
As I already stated: things you canāt do for your own, you have to pay for.
In this very moment, Iām still able to do my IT for my own companies. Besides other things in the administration and production. Over 20 years with NO serious break in production. Did I miss an argument of a security point of new NS8 vs. NS7 structure? What coming up security dangers for NS7 do you see? Could you please be precise. Of course right now, for NS8 you need a (hardware) firewall. Easy to configure. Ehh?
Even before. Anybody remember DEC? I was dealing with NOVELL, yellow cable, with fibre lines, opto electronics and interfaces (inside different branches of a company, in different countries, with MODEMS) and PCās in a time, and CODING, that I donāt want to miss for learning.
To be clear - Iām happy that this is the past. Beside the SPEED of connections (time is money), the NEEDS of a SME are nearly the same. The bottom line for a company seems to be: less money more profit. To translate in IT - less efforts (by matching the needs) means more time for core business. Whatever this might be. Did I miss the point? Does NS8 give me more time to take care for my core business, i.e. for a SME to make money?
I KNOW ABOUT THE GOLD STANDARD. Sorry for being loud.
In this very moment - as a company producing goods in Germany for over 70% export - our products do not allow the overhead for an IT department. If Iād have a choice Iād really like to have it in another way. Iām not doing IT for my personal fun. No, really not. Thatās why I stated ānever touch a running systemā.
Again and again - Iām talking about SMALL MEDIUM ENTERPRISE and ONLY for myself. MITEL, SME, KOOZALI or NS7 is why Iāve chosen SME software a long time ago. BUT STILL VALID for me.
Mhmm, I got it: move, move, move. Click, click, click. āSME over 20 years in nearly the same way - donāt you think itās time to MOVE?ā Come on, letās do something NEW.
Iām old enough to realize if things have no benefit to my needs and are trying to drive me in a direction I donāt want. In other words - as long as I donāt see any improvements from the standard and needs we now have, Iāll not follow.
No - please donāt tell me again - I really like to test new products. In fact itās a part of my job. And not only in IT. I donāt want to live in the past. But Iām old enough to judge careful.
Thereās always a choice. Again - this is my very personal opinion as being responsible for a SME.
Period. No more post from me.
