“It looked like the Sun Startup Essentials program was designed with ONEIS in mind. Apart from the great discounts on Sun technology and the fact Solaris makes the software transition across platforms easy, we have a Sun account manager who gives us the confidence that whatever Sun equipment we order will be with us fast - a must for any new business.....Our core aim has always been to help small companies. If we can help our clients as much as Sun is helping us, we should be fine.”
— Ben Summers, Technical Director, ONEIS
