Notes/Domino Implementation

Implementing or upgrading a Notes/Domino infrastructure is something that only occurs every 2 years or so. One of the greatest challenges is developing a successful implementation plan that gets the job done right the first time with adequate performance and functionality.

To do this, you need staff that regularly implements and upgrades Lotus products. This staff is not only hard to find, but expensive and hard to keep as well. Instead of your staff struggling with it, why not use the experienced staff of Groupwave to implement or upgrade your Lotus infrastructure?

Groupwave provide advanced Lotus implementation services for not only Notes and Domino, but also Sametime, Quickr, Connections, Portal and Protector. Our expert Lotus consulting team specializes in migrating clients to the latest release of Lotus Software, including upgrades from End Of Service (EOS) releases. Our team has performed dozens of migrations and has experienced all of the "Gotcha's" that can cause outages and user dissatisfaction.

We can increase productivity by integrating various products and applications, e.g. Lotus Notes/Domino, Quickr, IBM BPM and even non IBM products, into a personalized web experience by using Websphere portal. WebSphere Portal supports workflows, content management, simplified usability and administration, open standards, security, and scalability. By ‘Portalizing’ Notes/Domino applications we can maximize your investment and turn old Notes applications into modern, intuitive web applications.

Collaborative Development

Have you thought about organizing workflow and/or documents in domino, connecting domino to a websphere portal, connecting domino to other applications, connecting your domino applications via web-services enablement., Smart businesses strategically evolve their IT systems rather than leap from one technology to the next. Merely reacting fails to take full advantage of proven legacy systems or promising new technologies.

Groupwave knows how to evolve your systems to make the most of Domino's future. The emergence of sophisticated middleware technologies enables the organization with the right strategy to extract the most benefit from legacy applications and the latest innovations. Indeed, synergies begin to emerge when the two are combined in innovative ways.

Not only can Domino be reused; it can be repurposed. With advanced middleware technology, its reach can easily be extended to devices such as PDA’s and mobile phones. Furthermore, the information and business process assets contained in Domino can be combined with new applications to extend its functionality.

The business benefits of using new technology to leverage Domino into the future include:

  • extending the return on investment from Domino;
  • extending the reach of current technology investments to new devices;
  • enhancing Domino with new technologies such as services and portals.

We have over 10 years experience in Domino, so we know how to get the most out of it. Our combined knowledge of Domino, middleware and standards can help you on many levels.

E-commerce development

E-commerce is one of the easiest and economical ways of getting a business going as quickly as possible. Nevertheless, business owners, be it small or large, should carefully consider the ramifications of basing their business model either partially or wholly on an e-commerce system.

Like any other form of business, e-commerce entails a certain amount of overhead that must be paid regardless of the final results. Owners must consider such fixed costs as hosting fees, database license fees and maintenance costs that are entailed with any kind of computing or internet based service. Patches and software updates must be made regularly and network scans must be done periodically to ensure the privacy and security of your customers and company information.

But, the e-commerce route is much less painful than setting up a traditional brick-and-mortar avenue. Owners who keep in mind the few costs and budget accordingly will be very pleased with their end result. To buy or not to buy? Remove the Shakespearian dilemma from your business decisions with our consulting services for your desired or existing e-commerce systems.

We have years of experience in launching e-commerce websites and that has given us a wealth of knowledge on the pitfalls, opportunities and concerns that can occur as you click your way to online success.
