Our services

Disaster recovery

Just having a backup solution is not enough for most organisations. A backup may allow you to restore files, but it probably won’t allow you to restore all your systems in the case of a major failure. We can help with the design, implementation, documentation and testing of full disaster recovery systems. Be prepared and avoid the chance of significant loss to your business.

Free 24×7 Monitoring

We set up warning notifications so we can monitor our retained clients systems for FREE. This allows us to identify and resolve critical issues, often before they are noticed by users. Our proactive monitoring saves time and provides our clients with better performance and higher systems availability.

Faultfinding

Our consultants carry out problem solving and performance analysis in local and international organisations and have considerable experience in getting to the solution quickly and efficiently.

Virtualisation lets you meet your objectives of greater efficiency and flexibility by consolidating your systems onto fewer physical platforms. We can explain the benefits of virtualisation and consolidated storage, and how they can apply to your business. We have a long track record of implementing VMware vSphere for companies just like you.

Remote solutions

Remote working and mobility has become an essential part of most organisations. We provide advice on the different options and implement remote access solutions from all leading vendors – including the very flexible Netconnect platform.

Solutions

A lot of our clients are small to medium businesses so we understand their issues well – multi-site environments; getting backoffice functions to the corners of the factory floor; working within and around the limitations imposed by buildings that were never designed with 21st Century computing in mind.

IT Support, from desktop to server to application, is our bread and butter. We can provide first line support to your users, second line support to your helpdesk or third line support to your IT team. Contact us to discuss putting together a package that fits your needs.
