HOUSTON, Oct 05, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- INX Inc., /quotes/comstock/15*!inxi
Wildhorse Resort and Casino based in Pendleton, Oregon, is a premier resort and gaming destination in the Pacific Northwest. The resort is owned and operated by the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation. Recently, INX completed a large-scale upgrade to Wildhorse's data network and phone system in anticipation of a significant site expansion planned to open fall of 2011. This expansion is part of the resort's 10-year master plan to provide its guests with the latest in technological amenities and an unparalleled customer experience.
The Wildhorse expansion is a significant project as they will be adding approximately 184,000 sq ft of new space that includes a 24,000 sq ft expansion to the gaming floor, a four-screen Cineplex and 202 new hotel rooms and suites. With the upcoming expansion project in mind, Wildhorse partnered with INX to implement a Cisco Unified Communications system and integrate the telephony and data network, as well as prepare them for incorporating applications to attract new guests. This upgraded phone system has already enabled the resort to dramatically reduce its number of circuits which has cut telephone communication costs by 50%. In addition, INX has worked with Wildhorse to implement a virtualized data center environment to cut operating costs and increase performance. INX has implemented a new NetApp storage area network (SAN), installed a Cisco Unified Computing Solution (UCS) for the resort's casino management software, and deployed VMware technology to bring the data center to now nearly 75% virtualized. INX Managed Services will be monitoring Wildhorse's Unified Communications system, the network infrastructure and over-all performance. By offloading these day-to-day tasks to INX, Wildhorse is able to decrease costs and dedicate staff to their mission critical tasks and to improving guest experience.
Ethan Barrow, INX Account Manager, has provided business enabling IT solutions to Wildhorse for the last four years by focusing on the consultative approach INX has developed. This project represents almost $1 million in revenue to INX.
Melodie Lente, Wildhorse's Director of Management Information Systems commented, "Wildhorse believes that an exceptional customer experience is created by the details and that those details all begin at the foundational level. Now our technology foundation is cutting edge. The Wildhorse Unified Communications system rollout was the most successful cutover I have seen in my career."
Andrew Cadwell, Vice President of Sales for INX said, "We look forward to an ongoing relationship with Wildhorse as they continue to build new technologically advanced facilities. Advanced IT infrastructure can substantially improve the efficiency and effectiveness of any operation and INX is at the forefront of providing these innovative solutions."
