KEANE eHOST SERVICES

As an Application Service Provider (ASP), Keane brings VistaKEANE software to your desktops without the applications being loaded onsite. Subscribers pay a flat fee, instead of purchasing software licenses and setting up networks.

Here is the route your data follows in the fraction of a second it takes for a keystroke to get an online response through eHost services. Data travels from your PC through your LAN connection to an onsite router. The router directs your data to the eHost services network. On the other side of the network, the router in the Data Center directs your data to switches that identify your server. Every night your server is backed up on high-speed RAID (Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disk) storage.

Lower Total Cost of Ownership

Keane eHost™ Services reduce the total cost of owning a computer system. We do this by combining into one affordable flat fee the cost of software, software update service, customer service, and network services. This fee is an operating budget expense, rather than a capital cost.

Also included is use of the Keane eHost Services Data Center and the high-speed network that transmits data between the facility and the Data Center.

Is an ASP Right for Your Organization?

Long-Term and Post-Acute Care providers in all settings can benefit from Keane eHost Services:

• Multi-Facility Organizations

  ASP is the solution for organizations that want the advantages of a wide-area network (WAN) without hiring their own Information Technology staff to manage the system. It gives central control over the applications used, when software updates are installed, and when data is backed up.

  Corporate offices have instant access to all of their facilities' databases with the ability to run reports on demand and drill down to the status of a specific resident or financial transaction.

• Single Facility

  For independent facilities without an IT department, Keane eHost handles issues like modem problems and software conflicts in a timely way. Daily backups and software updates occur on schedule. Keane's IT professionals take care of daily backups, troubleshooting, and system maintenance.
