LVBusinessDirectory.com upgrades Internet connectionUpgrading in the Messenger office is deemed a winner By Emma Lewis - 12th October 2000 - Back to News Messenger - the masterminds behind the creation of the LVBusinessDirectory - have spent the last week feverishly upgrading and implementing their Internet equipment and connection.
The demand for our on-line services has been so great that we have had to scale up three months ahead of schedule.
The LVBusinessDirectory now has over 500 users. Further, we have increased our capacity to cope with the expected peaks during Christmas so the exercise was like a double upgrade.
Apologies for the bumpy ride of about 18 hours. The new upgraded system is a corner stone to improved efficiency and effectiveness with even better service.
With the internet in their hands it seems the door to the world is open.
