  3. What is Parallels Operations Automation Parallels Operations Automation is an Operations Support System for Service Providersthat enables delivery of any application or service in a hosted environment which increases revenue per user, decrease costs and shorten time to market

  4. Why do you need Unified Platform • Automate FULL lifecycle • Deliver FULL range of services • Integrate deliver and back office • Provide a SINGLE point of access for staff • Provide a SIGNLE point of access for customers 1/14/2009 “T1R believes the future of hosting in the mass market is about being a one-stop shop for delivery of a wide range of hosted services. As we argued recently, hosting is now as much about the overall package and suite of product and services as it is about core stand-alone products such as Exchange or shared hosting. Without a unified platform, customers will not be able to access multiple products and services from a single interface. …A unified platform helps position the hoster as a true one-stop shop, and it allows customers to add on product and services easily and efficiently – contributing to the hoster's bottom line. Provisioning times will also be greatly improved as customers can log on with a credit card, purchase what they need in a few clicks and have what they purchased up and running literally within minutes. It is this kind of speed and efficiency that the sector must continue striving for.”

  5. Build vs. Buy • Development of the system – is never ending process.. • Complexity of the system constantly grows • Invest more and more into development and maintenance • System covers too many areas - need experts in dozens of areas • System is not static • New OSs • New Technologies (Windows Server 2008, Exchange 2007, WSS3 – in 2008 alone) • New Service Offerings
