And the additional cost of having an open 24/7 connection to a computer running
the AS2 Server.
AS2 is cheaper to run but more complicated to setup.
Currently, most of our clients have AS2 AND a VAN or two!
What do you do when a Trading Partner says that you MUST trade with VAN xyz?
Do it, and add it to the cost of doing business with that Trading Partner.
