WebNow Online Solutions Simplified

Yep after 5 years in our current offices we thought it was time for a change.  Well actually we have pretty much outgrown our current offices and apart from starting to stack staff on top of each other (which is not very legal) we had to look for larger space. 

 

I was personally involved in this project and I can tell you it is not an easy process.  The hardest part was not the actual construction and moving but rather trying to find suitable office space.  WebNow has always been based in Cape Town's Northern Suburbs and while we considered a relocation to the CBD we felt it was just not fair to our staff with most of them living in the area.  So we narrowed our search to the immediate vicinity.  We managed to secure a space in the Tygervalley area giving easy access to staff and customers and within close proximity of shops, coffee shops and other amenities.

 

Once we had shortlisted and selected offices we entered a period of what felt like months of negotiaitons, spent weeks pouring over office designs and various layout variaitons until we were totally satsified.  I am pleased to say that Giant Leap (the design and project management agency working with us) have been exceptional and have taken on all of the stress and hassles that come with working with contractors and have delivered a truley wonderful space for our staff and customers alike.

 

WebNow is extremely excited to be moving into these new offices and once we have settled in we will invite you tc come and take a closer look.

 

Our actual move is taking place this weekend starting on Saturday 30th July.  All going well we will be up and running (assuming Telkom plays ball) on Monday 2nd August.

 

Please note that our Data Centre is not impacted by this move and all hosted services will continue to operate as normal.  Our support team will also continue to be available around the clock.

 

We do expect some telephone disruption on Monday morning but rest assured we do have contingency plans in place while Telkom complete our migration.

 

Further details and updated contact information will follow shortly.

The World Cup that took place in our country over the last 4 weeks has been so exciting and has brought together South Africans from all walks of life.  We have made use of public transport that we previously may never have used, we have rubbed shoulders with tens of thousands of people on the various Fan walks across the country and even those that never previously followed football, have found themselves glued to their TV for the last 4 weeks.  Some of us have also been fortunate enough to attend a match at one of the magnificent stadiums around the country.  We have shown the world that South Africa can deliver and in doing so have silenced the sceptics – both locally and around the world.

For one month we forgot about our differences, we stopped worrying about the “what if”, politics seemed to disappear off the radar and we all walked around with our heads held high – For my part I was truly proud to be a South African.  In the Sunday Times newspaper last Sunday I came across a wonderful full page advert by FNB to celebrate the last day of the World Cup – these words were captured on top of a South African flag and read:

“TODAY WE ARE THE GREATEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD”

How very true.

But why only “Today”.  What about going forward...Many of us are now pondering life without the World Cup and some are already talking doom and gloom.    The flags that we were all so proud to fly do not need to be packed away now that the World Cup is over.  Now more than ever is the time for us to stand together, to build on what we as a nation have achieved and to reach new heights.  

One of our partners, design agency DraftFCB, have been so inspired by the World Cup that they have launched a campaign called “Keep Flying”.  The campaign has been endorsed by Brand SA and encourages individuals and businesses not to pack their flags away but to fly the flag proudly and to keep it flying.

WebNow supports this campaign and I encourage you all as individuals to do so as well.  Please visit www.keepflying.co.za for more information and share this initiative with your friends and family.

An email signature showing our support for the campaign will be automatically embedded to the footer of all email messages and other collateral will be made available to show our support.

 

Online businesses should consider using integrated technologies to attract a broader customer base, says WebNow.

While the reflected increase in internet connectivity is a very positive sign, just 10% percent of the population is connected to the internet. By contrast, some reports show that up to 90% have cell phones. Of those, around 65% have browsing capability. One Cape Town CEO urges online businesses to integrate both platforms into their marketing and operational plans.
Internet usage and broadband trend reports issued by World Wide Worx and Cisco have shown a dramatic increase in connectivity and use patterns compared with last year. Research data released in January revealed that 10% of South Africans are connected to the internet. Broadband usage data in March showed that internet access from a broadband connection has increased by 50%, with wireless access growing nearly three times faster than fixed line access.

Many businesses are migrating their operations to the internet environment, using online technologies such as cloud computing, ecommerce functionality and payment gateways such as PayPal. There are many reasons for doing so. Companies can reduce costs, enhance operational flexibility and expand their customer base to broader markets.

This is undoubtedly good news, reflecting increased confidence in the internet as an ecommerce medium. The Seacom cable, more reliable, cheaper connections and reducing hardware costs are clear influencing factors. But what of the remaining population and particularly small businesses who are not yet connected as a result of cost or lack of knowledge? Many may be alienated from commercial opportunities and possibly denied the chance to expand their own small businesses as a result of their lack of access.

Jean-Pierre Dumont, CEO of full service ISP and web development consultants WebNow, is asking the same questions, saying: “The usage statistics show some fantastic growth from last year. But the connectivity gap may alienate a large proportion of potential customers.” Dumont expresses the view that with just 10% of the population actively connected, businesses should consider how to integrate other tools to connect with the remaining 90% and broaden their customer base on their own doorstep.

Mobile internet and SMS platforms are the answer. With such significant cell phone penetration and over 60% of that penetration allowing mobile browsing, it is becoming much easier to expand a business’s customer base, and also to allow smaller traders to compete in a wider market.

Dumont continues: “Clearly, South Africa’s socio-economic structure has a great impact on the connectivity gap which will in turn influence the size of a business’s economically active market. But the point is that there are technologies available that enable a two-prong approach to help online businesses interact directly with their customers without relying on a customer’s own connectivity.”

In one example, WebNow is currently developing a platform for a web-based business seeking to attract users who lie at both ends of the connectivity scale. The system’s end users lie within the connected demographic. But the vast majority of the business’s service providers do not have internet connections. As a result, a large proportion of the marketing and development budget is being allocated to two-way SMS functionality.

By integrating different platforms into the development architecture, it allows the internet to be used as a pull mechanism to help customers find service providers. At the same time, the system leverages South Africa’s widespread cell phone coverage to push service providers towards their customer base.

By taking this approach, it will be possible to open up many more commercial opportunities for businesses working from grassroots level right up to well entrenched major corporates.”

WebNow actively took part in the famous Vuvuzela moment on 9 June 2010 at 12:00pm.

A recent news article thereafter caught our attention:

Herewith an extract:

"At exactly noon today, people around the world blew their Vuvuzelas, whistled and honked their horns to celebrate the first Fifa World Cup in Africa, due to kick off in just two days.

It was called the “Vuvuzela Moment” and it was celebrated in equal style online as it was offline. Tweeters in South Africa and across the world came to the party in fine style, causing the phrase “Vuvuzela” to trend on the world-famous social networking and microblogging service as fans across the world spoke about and blew their virtual Vuvuzelas in 140 characters.

According to Fifa the Vuvuzela Moment officially caused the “first ever” World Cup-related trending topic on Twitter"

Here is some of our employees blowing and making noise, to celebrate the fact the Fifa World Cup has come to Africa

 

 

 

It seems like just yesterday when there were 999 days to go until kick-off. Now there is less than one week!
Many people believed that South Africa would never pull this off:  was there a plan B, a plan C? Would the stadiums be completed on time? But in true South African style it seems we have again proved the sceptics wrong. We should allow ourselves to stand back and marvel at what we have achieved. South Africa is ready and is about to deliver a truly incredible event.
This Friday afternoon, our team kicks off 2010 FIFA World Cup, when they take on Mexico at Soccer City. Bafana Bafana has been on a winning streak, winning every one of the last 12 games they played. Good luck to the boys. We’re feeling the gees, our flags are flying and we’re fully behind them.

Their first match will be a very tough game. Mexico is a formidable opponent. However South Africa will have an entire nation behind them and this will be a fantastic occasion to showcase our talents as footballers, and the colour and vibrancy of our country

Here are some interesting facts about the FIFA World Cup:

•    The 2006 World Cup was one of the most watched events in television history. The expected TV audience for the 2010 event will be even higher with some 2.6 billion people expected to tune in.
•    The 2002 World Cup was the first to be held in Asia. In that year, for the first time the event was split between two nations, Japan and South-Korea.
•    Brazil's Pele is the only player to play in the winning World Cup team three times: in 1958, 1962 and 1970.
•    The World Cup trophy went missing for seven days when it was stolen before the 1966 World Cup in England. A week after it was taken the trophy was found by a dog named Pickles while on a walk with his owner in South London. It was wrapped in some newspapers at the bottom of some bushes.
•    Brazil has been selected to host the 20th World Cup in 2014.
•    In what is possibly good news for Bafana Bafana, Mexico has lost more World Cup games than any other team, with 22 losses in 45 games. Argentina is second with 19 and Germany is third with 18.
•    The 1950 World Cup was the only tournament not to have a final game. Instead, the winner was determined in a four-team round robin after Brazil, Uruguay, Spain and Sweden won their respective first-round groups. Uruguay won the tournament, defeating hosts Brazil 2-1 in the final round-robin game.

 

We are all looking forward to the soccer extravaganza. It promises to be a magical event with a uniquely African flair.
We’re sure you join us in wishing all competing teams the best of luck and we hope for many goals.

Bafana Bafana, South Africa is 100% behind you in uniting a nation in the spirit of our victory in 1995.

We have had many enquiries about ADSL in the past, we have found a very good article written on myBroadband, that explains the terms in detail and keep it quite simple for anyone to understand. We hope that this enlightens you all!

http://mybroadband.co.za/news/adsl/12343-ADSL-jargon-What-you-should-know.html

In the words of Lewis Carroll, then, "let's begin at the beginning"...

 

ADSL

The abbreviation for asymmetric digital subscriber line. It's sometimes commonly referred to as "DSL" or digital subscriber line. The technology allows for data to be transmitted over conventional copper phone lines at a faster rate than a dialup/voice modem. To do so, it uses frequencies that are not used by a voice call. A splitter (micro-filter) allows users a single telephone connection to be used for an ADSL service as well as voice calls at the same time.
Self-install
"Self-install" is the most popular way of provisioning ADSL. This means you do not have to wait for a Telkom technician to come to your house (this could take weeks), and you save the R543 installation fee. Self-install is a simple process. You order ADSL online, at a Telkom Direct shop, or by calling 10219. Telkom then informs you that you may proceed with the self-installation. You collect your modem at a Telkom store, or have it delivered. Then, it's as simple as connecting the micro-filter to your phone line, connect the cable labelled "line" to the box on your wall and the other end to your ADSL modem. You will then need to verify your DSL connection, and should be up and running within 30 minutes.
Router/modem
A router or modem will allow your computer to transmit data over a standard telephone line. ADSL routers are slightly larger than the old dial-up modems and generally allow for at least four connections (via Ethernet local area network cables). Some routers also offer wireless connectivity, so you're able to connect to it wirelessly in your home.
Bandwidth
Bandwidth is simply the data transfer rate: the amount of data that can be carried from one point to another in a given time (usually in one second). Telkom offers ADSL in three speed options: (up to) 384Kbps (kilobits per second), (up to) 512Kbps or (up to) 4 096Kbps (also known as a "4 meg" line, ie, 4 megabits per second). It is also trialling faster ADSL, with speeds of up to 10Mbps reported. Telkom helpfully points out that the "speed indicators are line synchronisation speeds which are dependent on the distance from the exchange and other factors".
Shaped
Shaping refers to the moderation of data on your broadband connection. In other words, certain content is given priority over others. Websites, for example, will be given priority over e-mail being downloaded. If a shaping policy like this is in place, explains MWEB, if you are downloading your e-mail, and surfing the web, you will get to the web page first before your e-mails have completed downloading. Shaping is used to prevent abusers of the service from destroying the experience for others. Traffic using protocols such as proprietary video chat or peer-to-peer file downloads will be "de-prioritised".
Unshaped
An unshaped service has no prioritisation of any traffic. It simply operates on a "first come, first served" basis regardless of which protocol is used.
Contention ratio
A contention ratio is how Internet Service Providers (ISPs) are able to deal with a large amount of users on limited bandwidth. It's described as a measurement of the number of other subscribers you are "contending" with for your share of ADSL bandwidth leading to your local exchange. "For example, the contention ratio as published by Telkom is 20:1, this means that you would share your bandwidth with no more than 20 subscribers on the Telkom Network."
All-inclusive
To use ADSL you need an ISP for data and Telkom for the rental of an ADSL line. Normally you'll pay Telkom and your ISP separately, but many ISPs offer an "all-inclusive" option where you pay a single fee to them. The ISPs are basically "reselling" ADSL connections, and this works out cheaper than paying each separately. However, you will still have to pay for your analogue telephone line rental.
WIMAX
Telkom has confused matters by offering Wimax as an "ADSL replacement" in areas where it does not have copper infrastructure, or where cable theft is rampant.
Wimax is a high-speed wireless access technology, and Telkom offers fixed wireless broadband, which means you are not able to be mobile in the same way you would be with a 3G USB modem. The Telkom offering is an (up to) 512Kbps product, similar to the equivalent ADSL connection.

An online presence, whether personal or business, has become an almost every day necessity. Such demand has seen a growth in web hosting companies, large and small, competing to host websites, mail and online applications.

Read our press release below and find out how WebNow helped Toyota with their new website, www.toyota.co.za

 

Introduction

Cape Town-based web developers WebNow have joined forces with communication agency Draftfcb South Africa and usability consultants JH-01 to develop a powerful new ecommerce-based website for Toyota South Africa. Visitors to the site can research, select, finance, insure, order and maintain a new or used car with the help of powerful search and transaction technology.

The successful collaboration project started in October 2008. The site has been live since August 2009. Since then the site has attracted 200,000 unique visitors and driven over 300 finance applications via the finance section.

Project summary

The site is based on a complex content management system, designed to meet Toyota's unique requirements. With content provided by multiple sources, Toyota brand office, Sales, Toyota dealers, Toyota Financial Services and Draftfcb, visitors use the site to inform their decision to buy any car from the entire Toyota range as well as accessing relevant corporate information.

The site catalogues the specifications, add-ons and optional extras for every model, with a comparison function to help buyers decide what suits them best. From the pre-purchase zone, buyers can identify the car they want, book a test drive, select their favourite accessories, add an insurance policy and configure their finance options all in a trolley format which can be printed or saved for access at a later stage.

Once buyers have made their selection, they are moved into the purchase zone. Using an electronic signature function, their selection is confirmed and then they have the option to transfer their trolley to their local dealer for processing or save it to their MyToyota profile to be accessed or modified at a later stage. In this zone in a future release, the buyer will be able to monitor their order progress, apply for finance and insurance and monitor the details of their delivery. Provision has also been made to possibly buying the car using a credit card or EFT payment methods online. In the purchase zone, buyers can add service and maintenance schedules to their trolleys and leave feedback for Toyota Customer Services.

In the future it will be possible for the buyer to keep up to date with their car's service programme from within the post-purchase zone.  And when their finance has come to an end or they need a change, then a buyer can arrange for a trade-in or trade up.

WebNow scope of work

Draftfcb developed the strategy behind the site along with the creative vision, while JH-01 consulted on the user experience design. Working closely with the client and their project partners, WebNow designed and developed the back-end technology through a clearly defined process. Their extensive involvement included:

• Developing the functional requirement specifications
• Creating the system architecture and design
• Developing the content management system tailored specifically to Toyota's unique requirements
• Implementing the signed-off creative, which involved converting initial concept documents to html and css files, including developing the master page and theme
• Developing the website using ASP.NET and C# programming protocols, and the business logic and data access layers using C#. WebNow used Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 for all development
• Developing the integration bus
• Designing and developing the database using SQL Server 2005

Toyota South Africa Manager:  Web Communications Systems, James Smith, explained the impact on the motor sales industry that the website will have: "The Toyota South Africa website has completely changed the face of buying a car in South Africa. The new website creates a seamless process through which our customers can make a decision about which vehicle to buy and customise the vehicle according to their needs. Many people feel a lot of pressure when standing in a dealer's showroom but the website allows them to make a decision in the comfort of their homes. It assists by guiding them through the purchase journey allowing them to gather all the information they need, enhancing their decision to buy the best vehicle suited to their needs."

WebNow Managing Director, Jean-Pierre Dumont, said: "This was one of the most challenging projects WebNow has ever undertaken. The success of the site is a testament to Toyota's clear vision and the highly effective collaborative approach shared by Draftfcb and JH-01, our project partners. We have broken new ground with both the concept and the technology and we are pleased to have played such a critical and successful part."

South Africa recently received news of the first uncapped ADSL package launched on the market to much acclaim.

On the face of it, these deals are exactly what the bandwidth-strapped South African market has been crying out for. With increasing commercial competition from a global market and a more sophisticated desire for more flexible internet access, there clearly is a need for a shake up in the market. The move will be welcomed by the man in the street who will be lapping up the chance to surf the web for as long as they want for an accessible price.

But one industry professional is urging caution.

Jean-Pierre Dumont, CEO of WebNow, feels that while uncapped ADSL is generally a good thing in principle; consumers should look more carefully at what they are getting before they jump ship from their existing provider.

He explains his concerns: “Uncapped accounts are ideal for some users but very bad for others. The packages announced recently do look very good to the uninitiated. But they are laced with conditions and caveats that may catch the average user unawares.” Cost, reliability and conditions are the main concerns, as Dumont elaborates.

The uncapped deals are structured to appeal to consumers who are fairly light internet users. In some cases a user with a 3 GB capped account may feel they will get better value by switching to an uncapped account. In doing so, they may forego a very reliable service that meets their needs for R99 a month, for one that costs an average of R200 per month. Their costs go up but it is unlikely that their user profile will change. Where’s the benefit in that?

Furthermore, uncapped accounts are new to the South African market. With many accounts using one network provider the backhaul capacity to serve all of these uncapped users is unknown and untested. This, combined with potentially high contention ratios, is likely to result in performance problems for users. The service may be uncapped but it could be less reliable.

To counteract that, the uncapped accounts are heavily shaped and in some cases throttled, giving priority to general web browsing. In addition, line speed restrictions of up to 384 kpbs will be designed to reduce users’ ability to download a lot of data. Although ISPs will have the ability to cap or disconnect users that are deemed heavy users, light users will subsidise the heavier users. This imbalance in turn threatens the system’s reliability.

There could also be restrictions on VOIP and multimedia downloads. Dumont asks: “How do these restrictions make the service uncapped? Because these terms are buried in the fine print, these seemingly amazing deals could be seen as misleading for the average consumer. And it is the average consumer that these deals are targeted at.”

The uncapped offerings are further restricted in the terms and conditions. In particular, the cheaper accounts are available to personal users only. Businesses are traditionally heavier users and these restrictions make it difficult for cash-strapped small businesses to take advantage of the web now said to be free.

Having said that, Dumont acknowledges that the South African market is ripe for uncapped offerings. His firm WebNow launched an uncapped package this week. But Dumont is clear that the market is also ripe for alternatives that meet the needs of everyone, whether they are connecting with buddies on Facebook, Skyping their grandchildren in London, building an e-commerce based home business, or linking to video conferences with global clients in multiple time zones.

March has been a crazy action packed month...

 

To those that completed this years Cape Argus Pick ‘n Pay Cycle Tour well done!  While the wind was bad it was thankfully a little better than last year and made all the easier by the fantastic supporters that lined the route.  WebNow continues to support this fantastic event and we have a lot of great ideas which we hope will make it to the website in months to come.  More on that through the year.

 
WebNow launched a special March Month of Madness promotion where we slashed ContactNow email credits by up to 40%.  This promotion was very well received and we trust that it will assist our clients in reaching their clients much more cost effectively.  

 

We also announced the launch of our new semi-shaped ADSL plans at an unbelievable R33 per GB per month – Keep in mind that our previous price for 1GB was R69.  March also saw the advent of cost effective uncapped ADSL in South Africa for the first time.  MWEB started the ball rolling by announcing an uncapped offering from R219 per month and within a few days it started a price war with other ISP’s coming to market with competing products.  While we welcome MWEB’s move as a significant milestone in SA we are concerned that consumers are not necessarily getting all the information they need to make an informed purchase.  The cheaper uncapped offerings are ideal for home users that do a lot of web browsing and require a lot of bandwidth without getting capped.  
But there are conditions that you need to be aware of – the terms and conditions allow some ISP’s to heavily shape the connection, restrict the line speed and even throttle users that reach a certain threshold.  Users that make excessive use of the service could also face being disconnected or blacklisted by their provider.  Always read the fine print.  For home users uncapped is an ideal value proposition but for businesses that require a high speed, stable and unshaped connection rather go for a conventional ADSL capped offering.

 
Of course WebNow can provide you with the information you need to make an informed decision.  Not to be outdone we have also launched a new Uncapped ADSL offering called Uncapped Home which is available for R205 per month.  

 

March also saw the launch of our brand new website and upgraded Blog.  Remember to bookmark the site and keep visiting us for updates , promotions and exciting new product launches.

 
The final feather in our cap is the launch of our new Website Builder tool.  This tool allows any user to build a template based website in 5 easy steps – no design experience is required.  The good news is this tool is available free of charge to all our hosting customers with an upgrade enabling other features such as building your own online eCommerce site.  Check it out!
