Now Records
I think Ashwood is very fortunate to have a person of Bob's caliber on staff. This has been by far the easiest and least problematic of any conversion I have been involved with in my 30 years in this industry. Bob has the rare and elusive combination of excellent technical skills combined with excellent communication skills that I thought only existed in theory. Throughout the entire conversion process, Bob kept me informed of where we were, let me be involved in any decision that would effect our business and answered all of my questions concerning new features on the new system.
Again, thanks for all of Ashwood's help with this transition. I look forward to continue our working relationship as we go forward with our system development and continue to grow our business.

Speaking of Bob, I wanted to take a moment to tell you how incredibley please I was to have had Bob on site to get our new server up and running. Bob's knowledge and skill-set are matched only by his constant professionalism. It's such a great feeling to know that someone really knows what they are doing is there to help us when we need it. We enjoyed his visit and just can't say enough about how nice it is to work with someone as competent and professional as Bob Wyatt.

It has been a pleasure working with Ashwood Computer's techs, Don Robinson and Tom Dodds. They have been assisting Utilities, Inc. with the legacy portion of our conversion to Oracle, and have worked diligently to be on-time with each project deadline. They have also come in under budget. In a complex conversion such as this to be on-time and under budget is a rarity and most welcomed.
We look forward to working with Ashwood in the future as additional project present themselves.

Ashwood Computers, Inc Migrates and Upgrades American Red Ball Transit Co’s Business Systems
Ashwood Computer, Inc. working with William Horton, director of Information Technology for American Red Ball Transit Co., Inc. proposed they upgrade to a new IBM pSeries UniData server and upgrade their UniData database and associated systems software.
“We were running an IBM P-Series 7025 server that was about eight years old, along with AIX 5.2 and UniData 5.4 and SB Plus 5.2.” said William Horton. “Ashwood recommended a replacement server that would yield four times the memory and disk and more than triple the processor power. We agreed to the upgrade and performed the transition and upgrade over a three week period in December.
“We have been very pleased with every aspect of the contract deployment, including hardware delivery, setup, testing, migration, upgrading products, maintenance transition, and most of all, the upgraded software products, AIX 6.1, UniData 6.1 and SB 5.4.2. “The upgrade was thoroughly tested by all departments and approved prior to go-live. Upon live migration, a number of people stated that they didn’t realize anything had happened. That is the best remark that an IT Director could expect to hear after a major system upgrade and migration. “Ashwood’s personnel insured that every aspect of this migration was thoroughly completed and working according to our specifications also insuring that every point of connectivity and output had been tested and addressed. The effort was kept direct and minimal with the result being a satisfied company. “We would not hesitate to recommend Ashwood Computer for
any upgrade, migration, platform change that you may have to do.”
William Horton, Director, Information Technology
