Subaru Canada, which distributes vehicles to dealerships nationwide, wanted to improve its employees’ communications productivity—especially for its mobile sales staff, who frequently had to check in for voice-mail messages. With the help of Navantis, a Microsoft® Gold Certified Partner, Subaru Canada implemented Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 Enterprise as part of a unified communications strategy. Subaru Canada will use Exchange Server 2010 to save mobile employees more than 15 minutes a day, while also saving money on phone charges, because the employees no longer have to dial in to check voice-mail messages. The company will also take advantage of Exchange Server 2010 to provide users with larger mailboxes at a lower cost, deliver a highly available solution while improving IT efficiency, and more easily comply with regulations.

Each of the organization’s hospitals has its own IT department and multiple ways of delivering applications to its multi-user desktops. VCH deployed Microsoft® Application Virtualization (App-V) and, as a result, accelerated application deployment, improved application access, and simplified recovery. It will continue deploying virtual applications and adopt virtualization as its deployment strategy.
