A recent press release describing 1102 GRAND’s successful work with FishNet Security was posted on Datacenterjournal.com. 1102 GRAND, Kansas City’s data center and Internet Hub, created a case study focusing on the money it saved FishNet Security.
Barry Cooper, vice president of education services for FishNet Security, was grateful that 1102 GRAND was able to help him improve his products and save money. “What I needed was a solution of scale. Now, we have a Remote Training Environment (RTE) that can deliver 60 different vendor courses and computer-based training with pre-recorded content delivered to customers. It is all hosted from 1102 GRAND. With the development of the RTE, the customers did not have to wait, and the company reduced its overhead by $140,000 a year. Along with decreased shipping costs, the machinery breakage costs also decreased,” said Cooper.
