Rome, Italy, March 23, 2009 – NoMachine, creator and global provider of
NX desktop and application delivery software, today announced that NX
is being deployed by Software Consulting Service's (SCS) customers to
ensure software availability and providing remote access to newspaper
industry programs on Linux servers in the customers' data centers. SCS
develops, delivers, and supports computerized publishing systems via NX
technology.
Newspaper customers of SCS across the world use NX
to remotely and reliably access software they need to aid them with the
design and layout of their papers. Sun Media Group of Ontario, Canada
and The Derrick of Oil City, PA are only a couple of the many SCS
customers using NoMachine NX. SCS provides their customers with Layout
8000, the leading newspaper ad dummying system, along with AdMAX for
retail and classified advertising management and accounting,
SCS/ClassPag for rapid classified pagination and SCS/Track for
integrated ad tracking. Their newsroom systems include SCOOP for
editorial and news pagination and Fotoware's products for image
archiving. NX provides a reliable connection to these indispensable
resources for SCS customers with multiple locations allowing them to
use the applications on a centralized server.
Founder and
co-owner of SCS, Martha Cichelli, said, “NX has a highly noticeable
speed performance difference compared to other remote access
solutions. We include NX exclusively in all of our proposals for the
Linux Server because we want to offer our customers the best solution
possible. We even use NX ourselves here at SCS to connect to our
internal network remotely to provide support for our customers and
perform other important tasks while traveling or at home.”
Sun
Media Group, one of Canada's leading publishers of daily and non-daily
newspapers, magazines, and specialty publications, is deploying NX in
over 30 Linux-based publications. In a 24-hour, 365-day,
deadline-driven environment, flexibility is a top priority. With the
SCS and NX software combination, Sun Media production staff can lay out
any paper from any of their four sites, quickly and securely from
wherever they might be, resulting in efficient, profitable and
well-designed editions.
Jon Mosley of Sun Media said, “With
Layout-8000 from SCS and NoMachine NX we are able to lay out our papers
faster without the need to travel. Everything we need is at our
fingertips, no matter what our location is, creating an easily
manageable network. NoMachine NX's seamless training and set up makes
it easy to use and make adjustments along the way as well.”
The
Derrick is another publication customer of SCS using NoMachine NX daily
to access AdMAX and Layout-8000 applications on the Linux host from
users' desktops. Users can easily access the NX Server from various
locations to run any application on any PC. The Derrick also found
NoMachine NX to be cheaper than competitors creating an affordable
remote access solution.
Jon MacPherson of The Derrick, said
“NoMachine NX allows us to efficiently and effectively run publishing
applications that drive our business. While out of the office and
outside normal business hours, we can connect to the server and work
just as if we were there. This flexibility has also benefited IT staff
in their trouble shooting efforts from remote locations. Any system
challenges that arise can be managed immediately on the server
infrastructure remotely.”
