Businesses today rely on a wide range of disparate applications, and tying them all together is key to keeping employees productive. Many experts say IT executives are more likely to get that kind of enterprise integration and usability with Windows Vista than with a Mac.
“On corporate networks, which are predominately Windows-based, you have to be able to tap into Active Directory and Exchange [Server],” notes Ryan McCune, solutions director at IT consultancy Avanade Inc., a Seattle-based joint venture between Microsoft and Accenture. Macs, unfortunately, don’t integrate as seamlessly with those Microsoft-based technologies as Vista does, McCune argues.
