RE: Mapics Browser in a WAN environment

We have many customers that are using browser over a WAN connection.  Unless 
you have a pretty big pipe, the performance is pretty bad. We have implemented 
CITRIX for these customers. This has the advantage of working over a WAN as 
well as reducing the costs of adminsitering Browser and other applications.

        Good day,
        
        We are in the process of consolidating a number of data centers and I am
        concerned with possible performance issues with Browser over a WAN
        connection because of its reliance on ODBC.  Is anybody on the list 
using
        Browser in a WAN environment?  If so, how would you rate the performance
        and how much bandwidth is provided between the data center and remote
        site?
        
        Your input is appreciated,
