MNS utilises the latest MPLS technologies to connect sites in a company-wide virtual private network. MAM Network Solutions offer a range of flexible options including a choice of service level agreements, remote/home users, line monitoring, internet breakout, virtual server hosting and dual line or 3G failover. MNS is fully managed and supported by MAM Software, providing a single point of contact for all technical enquiries and ongoing support.

Nigel Clemett, Director of Sales at MAM Software said, "Our Claranet partnership is central to our cloud computing strategy. Many of our customers are looking for more flexible and hassle-free ways in which to run their business management systems and our new external hosting solutions help meet this objective. Partnering with Claranet instils the necessary confidence and security that is needed when working with a hosted solution.”

MNS is part of a wider package of cloud solutions offered by MAM Software that includes hosted versions of its popular management software. Delivered via the Internet and rented on a flexible per-user basis these solutions offer advantages such as low start-up costs and the ability to utilise existing hardware. MAM say hosted applications also eliminate the burden of updates and maintenance. .
