Law Firm Finds Extra Workstations in Contempt and Wins Enhanced Remote Access

Overview The 70 employees at Quattlebaum, Grooms, Tull & Burrow PLLC offer legal services for individuals and businesses from the firm's main office in Little Rock, Arkansas, and branches in Johnson and Jonesboro. QGTB wanted a system that would provide a smooth presentation of applications for end users. In addition, they wanted to centralize resources for both local workstations and remote access. QGTB purchased a new server to run Windows Server 2008 Terminal Services in parallel during the transition, with a plan to use the Terminal Services features for application virtualization. The firm considered the 32-bit version, but chose the 64-bit for its increased memory limit and as a forward-looking choice.
