On Thursday, Redstor welcomed a selection of our education partners and resellers to our 8th annual education forum held at the Museum of Science and Industry in Manchester. Redstor kicked off proceedings with a hearty welcome breakfast of tea, coffee and bacon rolls which provided the perfect opportunity to catch up with customers old and new. Presentations  began with a look at key trends for the education market in 2013 and beyond as well as highlighting some upcoming challenges including end of life for Windows XP, Office 2003 and a variety of other applications.

The day featured presentations on existing services including our backup for schools service; RBUSS, Safeguarding for Schools, Centrastage and also introduced new services including Virtual DR. In addition, interactive break out sessions were organised enabling attendees to discuss their thoughts, challenges and ideas amongst industry peers and with Redstor product managers. Initial feedback suggests the day was informative and enjoyed by all.  Images from the event are now on uploaded to our Facebook album.Please feel free to browse these at your leisure.

Planning is well underway for the Southern education forum which will take place on October 31st at Jericho Farm in Buckinghamshire.
