Initially, there were two offerings for small and medium businesses: Suitcase Fusion, a desktop app for font management, and Teamsync, a similar app configured for use with Teams. Connect Fonts combines the features of Suitcase Fusion and Teamsync into one product. Customers who previously used Suitcase Fusion or Teamsync can now access all the team sharing and cloud functionality of Connect Fonts without any extra charges, using their existing logins.

On the enterprise side, there was Universal Type Server (UTS), a traditional on-premise software installed on a custom server and managed by IT professionals. The Universal Type Client is a desktop app for end users. Many UTS customers have already migrated to Connect Fonts, which now includes enterprise functionality such as single sign-on, analytics, and font licensing.

To transition the remaining UTS customers, new features like advanced permissions will be introduced. The advantage for Connect customers is that they will have access to these enterprise-level features at no additional cost. Currently, Connect customers can already find single sign-on, analytics, and licensing available in their Connect admin area.

So in the beginning, We had two small, medium business offerings. Suitcase Fusion is the desktop app designed to help individuals manage their fonts. Teamsync is essentially the same desktop app, but configured for use with Teams. Connect fonts is essentially a suitcase fusion and Teamsync squashed together. Previously suitcase fusion and team sync customers can now take advantage of all the team sharing and cloud functionality available in Connect at no additional charge. Their suitcase fusion or Team sync logins will work with connect fonts. On the enterprise side, we had we have universe type server or commonly known as UTS. This is a traditional on premise piece of software designed to be installed on a custom server and managed by an IT professional. Universal type client is a desktop app designed for the end users. Many UTS customers have already migrated over to connect fonts. We've made this possible by introducing enterprise functionality into Connect bonds. Things like single sign on, which was launched last year oops. I have that in wrong. Things like analytics, which we launched and continue to build out, and then font licensing, which we launched last week. And I'll show you a little brief bit about that bit later. To get the remaining UTS customers over, we'll continue to introduce new functionality like advanced permissions and more. The good news for our Connect customers is everyone will have access to these enterprise level features at no additional cost. If you go into your Connect admin area today, you'll find single sign on, analytics, and licensing available to you.

B2B tech lead gen in 2026 is a timing problem, not a volume problem

B2B tech lead gen in 2026 is a timing problem, not a volume problem

In the context of B2B technology lead generation, timing is becoming increasingly critical over sheer volume. Buyers often complete a significant portion of their research about vendors before engaging with sales representatives. This shifting dynamic necessitates changes in how enterprise tech teams manage outbound strategies.

  • 01Timing is essential in B2B tech lead generation.
  • 02Buyers complete most of their vendor research before sales interactions.
  • 03Enterprise tech teams need to adjust outbound strategies accordingly.

Nvidia's Next AI Rack Costs Nearly Double the Last One, and Memory Is Why. What Infrastructure Buyers Should Budget For.

Nvidia's Next AI Rack Costs Nearly Double the Last One, and Memory Is Why. What Infrastructure Buyers Should Budget For.

Nvidia's next-generation Vera Rubin rack will cost hyperscalers $7.8 million—nearly double the prior generation—with memory now accounting for 25-30% of total cost instead of 5-10%. This shift signals that AI infrastructure budgeting must focus on total system cost rather than GPU pricing alone.

  • 01Memory costs jumped 435% to roughly $2 million per rack due to increased LPDDR5X capacity and 3D NAND storage, making it a strategic budget variable across all technology purchases
  • 02GPU share of bill of materials fell from 63% to 51% while memory rose to 25-30%, requiring infrastructure planners to model AI spend on total system cost not accelerator count
  • 03Memory supply constraints and tight availability now warrant the same scheduling and planning attention as GPU allocation, with procurement structure able to move final pricing by $1+ million per rack
