Case Study: Woodgate Fulfilment achieves improved IT flexibility and better ROI with Ericom Software's PowerTerm WebConnect

Woodgate Fulfilment - Customer Case Study

Woodgate Fulfilment, a UK fulfilment house serving time-sensitive mail-order, database and direct-mail operations, needed a host access solution to replace costly, inflexible Microsoft desktops and to bridge SCO OpenServer connections for new SuSE Linux workstations. To solve rising licensing costs and connectivity issues, Woodgate engaged Ericom Software and selected its PowerTerm WebConnect thin-client solution.

Ericom Software deployed PowerTerm WebConnect on Linux to provide browser-based, cross-platform host access with a single-server install, centralized management and no extra server software or hardware required. The solution delivered faster, straightforward deployment, tighter access control, reduced implementation and IT costs (no additional hardware needed), improved productivity and a better return on IT investment; Woodgate has completed phase one rollout across company workstations with plans to expand further.
