How does Novell enable its sales force with all the information and demos needed to showcase all its products? The answer is Utopia. A society of genetically enhanced super techies? Maybe not, but how about a series of interoperating virtual machines that use real business case content already installed, which they can show to customers and potential customers. OK, now that’s cool, but how can this help me?

Utopia is an employee and partner tool. What this means is that you may or may not have direct access to the tool. If you do not and would like to learn more about how Novell products can help your infrastructure, ask your Novell sales associate to show you a Utopia demo on the product(s) you are looking to implement.
