Benefits of Windows EBS
Mid-size businesses can benefit from the following features:
• Simplified installation and configuration—Windows EBS installs and licenses Windows Server 2008, Microsoft Exchange,
and several other essential security and IT management products. This simplifies installations and quickly implements
networks.
• Simplified management—From a central administration console, IT administrators can add users or review and respond to
system alerts. This console provides a consistent interface from which to perform most management tasks.
• Enhanced security—The Windows EBS Security Server employs the latest Microsoft technologies to reduce network security
risks and help block unwanted "spam."
