Guest Presenters
Citrix, What’s the Big Deal?
Presented by TEBA and The 3 Amigos
Craig Stones, Steve Psaradellis, Christian Mudd
Everything new and old that is worth knowing about Citrix.
Most people think of Citrix as Terminal Services on steroids; well it is much more than that. Teba will go through all the technologies that Citrix offer and where to use them, as well as allow a little time for technical questions.
This will be fast paced and full of useful real world use cases of the dozens of technologies in the Citrix Suite.
TEBA is a SMBiT Professionals Business Member.
TrustedCloud / TPG Telecom Dealer Partner Program
Presented by Bryant Haslam, BDM, TPG Telecom Group
TrustedCloud is the leading provider of high availability On-Demand Information, Communication, Technology & Telecommunications (ICT & T) services to small/medium sized businesses as well as corporate & enterprise organisations within Australia.
The first 15 minutes or so of the presentation will be focused on the background of the TPG group and how it got to this point. The second half of the presentation will be specific to Melbourne and what has been happening here recently. From there Bryant will shift the focus on to the dealer partner program. He will be seeking to get members who currently use these services to have an informal discussion about what he has worked on with them and getting them to provide feedback to other attendees about what TrustedCloud can do to meet their needs moving forward.
TrustedCloud is a SMBiT Professionals Gold Sponsor.
As time permits, Bryant's discussion will lead into
Roundtable Discussion
Unique problems and issues ....
