Hardware Supplier Maintains Competitive Edge With New Computing Environment | 0000-00-00 | Microsoft |
| Like all traditional hardware suppliers, Hanneke Industrial Supply faces a competitive challenge from the large nationwide retailers. To survive and thrive, Hanneke stocks more than 40,000 separate products and uses the Internet to access 20,000 more. In the early 2000s, however, this became a challenge, because the firm's computing environment couldn't keep up. Different software versions on desktops made file sharing difficult, and a lack of centralized server tools posed obstacles to efficient management and administration. Working with J&B Technologies, a Microsoft Certified Partner and Intel reseller, Hanneke upgraded its systems to include Intel Pentium 4 processors at the desktop and a server based on dual Intel Xeon processors running Microsoft Windows Small Business Server 2003.
