The Problem
Government modernization should not mean giving up control
Before choosing a modern communication system, government agencies need to ask the right questions.
- Who controls data?
- What happens during a network outage?
- Shared or dedicated infrastructure?
- Who controls system updates?
- What happens when an employee leaves?
With E-MetroTel, communications can keep running during outages using Galaxy appliances and alternate servers. Agencies get dedicated infrastructure, control their own update schedule, and keep their data when an employee leaves.
