CougarNet
has been developed by Cougar Technology Ltd
for use by educational and commercial
establishments where efficiency, reliability
and affordability are of paramount
importance.
CougarNet
provides a centralised management basis
offering simple installation of software to
a single unit. This drastically reduces the
amount of time required for the initial
configuration of the system and enables
software to be updated for use across the
network in a single exercise.
CougarNet’s
unique configuration allows users to employ
less powerful and relatively outdated
workstations thereby allowing the recycling
of older machines without loss of the
facilities offered by the latest software.
CougarNet
has the ability to provide access to all
resources across the Internet thereby
allowing workstations to operate as if they
were actually part of another school’s
network infrastructure. This unique
feature can provide off-site ICT resources
to ‘feeder schools’.
CougarNet can
offer
a true Gigabyte Network Infrastructure with
low maintenance at an affordable price.
