OS Migrations
Maintaining up-to-date operating systems via upgrades and migrations is sometimes a daunting task. With the right product and partner, you can eliminate the anxiety of the unknown and rest assured that your systems will be as up-to-date and efficient as possible.

ExpressAbility has been on the front line of major migration efforts that encompass over 50,000 nodes. From design and proof of concept, to pilot and then production implementation, our engineers have the experience to reduce the time it takes to conduct OS or application migrations. This background allows us to bring advanced techniques and technologies developed over years of managing similar projects to bear as a solution for you.

Disaster Recovery
System crashes can be one of the most disruptive and costly events in modern business. Even the threat of losing key servers or other systems causes a continual resource drain to enact and manage prevention measures. We can help minimize the negative effects of both, so when accidents happen and mistakes are made don’t be caught unprepared. ExpressAbility can help you design, test and implement proven disaster recovery methods or evaluate your existing recovery strategy to ensure a rapid return of services productivity.

Training
Occasionally you need to employ new IT management capabilities, but your in-house engineers don’t have the full expertise to make it happen efficiently. Making sure your staff has the knowledge and skills to confidently execute the methods and techniques required to achieving the high levels of efficiency and automation within today’s challenging IT environments is essential. Our Engineers have “seen it all” from working in a diverse mix of organizations and we have learned that there is no such thing as a “cookie cutter” model for training. Your enterprise is unique and it demands specialized training to help you achieve faster ROI and eliminate the challenges of introducing a complex management system. ExpressAbility will work closely with your organization to assure that they have the tools to best solve your business challenges both now and in the future.

Wise Packaging
It’s become obvious that with the increasing number of IT security threats, enterprises have an urgent need to prepare and protect servers, desktops and mobile users. There is a constant pressure on system administrators to quickly deploy patches to resolve the issue. However, deploying patches without testing can have unintended consequences. How can you maintain quality applications and still ensure a secure, stable environment? With as critical as this need has become, Wise has kept up the pace and the key is automated and efficient processes that allow you to quickly analyze and test patches before deployment. The new Wise Package Studio 5.5 offers everything you need to quickly test and prepare patches for deployment, so you can maintain quality applications at all stages of the application lifecycle. ExpressAbility has the resources you need to reduce the complexity of packaging patches and applications for release into your environment.
