Bowling Night
Advantage Technology Blowing night

Friday night was bowling night for Advantage Technology!

The Advantage Technology crew met up at Venture Lanes in St. Albans at 7:30pm and bowled all night long. One thing we’re constantly grateful for is the fact we all get along so well and enjoy each other’s company.

We weren’t all the best bowlers in the place, but I guarantee we had the most fun.

Server Consolidation at KCEAA
Server Consolidation

Server consolidation is a trending movement in IT and for good reason. Server consolidation reduces the physical footprint of servers, reduces operating costs and energy costs, decreases downtime and improves reliability. Rather than operating, managing and powering a variety of physical servers, server consolidation can provide a single point of contact to manage an entire data center.

It was a bright, sunny day. The creek was running cool, and the breeze was refreshing. In the air hung the smell of hot dogs and freshly barbecued pulled pork. Welcome to the first official Advantage Technology Company Picnic!

Hey, even IT professionals need to unplug from time to time. And what better place than Kanawha State Forest?

We had the sounds of children laughing and splashing and some classic rock on the stereo. All of those amazing homemade dishes we brought. It was wonderful!

This challenge is where Advantage Technology steps in with ShoreTel Enterprise Mobility.
