Logicalis Opens Expanded U.S. Enterprise Business Operations Center; New Facility Provides Maximum Flexibility to Managed Services Environments.

MASON, Ohio -- Logicalis, an international IT integration company, announced today the May 5 opening of its new Managed Services Enterprise Business Operations Center (EBOC) in Mason, Ohio. Due to substantial increases in Logicalis' Managed Services business, Logicalis outgrew the original EBOC location.

As Logicalis' primary United States EBOC, the facility is designed to offer heterogeneous environments, broad technology knowledge, and access to best-in-class technology experts. The new multi-million dollar facility features flexible and reliable management and monitoring with 24x7 support and preemptive services to meet growing customer requirements.

Logicalis' EBOC is a fully functional operations center that manages and maintains clients' infrastructure environments from the clients' chosen location. As a result, the new center allows Logicalis to offer prospective customers an opportunity to identify areas of business that might benefit from these offerings as well as an assessment to determine overall return on investment. Customers no longer need to build their own operations center to support their growing business and can now select what level of support is necessary to best achieve their business goals.

Logicalis EBOC offers its customers the following benefits:

--24x7x365 Management and Monitoring: Complete management offerings to maintain systems availability and minimize downtimes

--Reporting: Provides convenience and accessible reporting through a Web-based reporting portal

--Alarm Notification: Alerts and notifies customer when service issues arise

--Application Management Services: Offers full suite of application specific services

"Logicalis' EBOC was designed to help customers better understand how to focus on their core business while learning how to keep pace with ever-changing business requirements," says Terry Laber, CIO and EVP, Logicalis Solution Services Group. "Logicalis encourages current and prospective customers to take advantage of this new state-of-the-art facility and leverage the staff's unparalleled knowledge and world class technology capabilities."

"We have been thrilled with the service the Logicalis managed services EBOC offering has provided to us over the past year," says Steve Seidlitz, IT Infrastructure Manager, APW. "Logicalis' advanced remote management capabilities, coupled with our company's cost savings and time reduction to implement this system internally, resulted in a highly successful solution for our business."

On May 5, press are invited to attend an exclusive tour of the new facility and the opportunity to speak with senior level Logicalis executives. Logicalis also has EBOCs operating in the UK and South America. Together the Logicalis EBOCs deliver optimal technology and business solutions that maximize return, extend each customer's budget, and enhance overall business performance.
