October 30, 2003DataArt has launched an additional high-speed channel with a capacity of up to 10 Mb/sec. Due to the fact that our company is quite spread out (New York, Silicon Valley, London, and two major development centers in St. Petersburg), high-speed communication between departments is an obvious necessity.
This also allows us to have much closer contact with our clients. Such a communication investment will quickly and generously pay itself off.
