It is all about making the right choices
We analyse your information needs and help you make the right choices for your business.
Although web based IT solutions (SaaS) are our core business, if we believe you will benefit from a traditional or partially traditional IT solution, we will tell you exactly that. We will always put your interests first as we believe that is the only way to build long lasting relationships.
We work with management and IT departments to find out where web based IT solutions would help business and make IT simpler, more accessible and more affordable.

Choosing an IT solution
Whether you are looking for a professional email solution or a customer and sales management tool we will first of all assess your requirements. Some of the criteria we will use:
- What are your information needs?
- Who will be needing this information?
- From where does it needs to be accessed?
- What security & reliability requirements are there?
- How scalable do storage and processing capacity need to be?
- How easy is it to migrate data out of the system?
- How easy is it to integrate with other solutions?
- On the basis of your requirements and budget we will suggest suitable solutions which can be a mix of our own and partner solutions.
Migration & Integration planning
Whilst an all or nothing web IT approach might work for some, most organisations will have some need for traditional IT or simply wish to migrate to the web gradually. With our expertise in both web based and complex traditional IT environments we can create a plan for adopting web hosted IT, with key milestones, reviews and targets. This could include:
- Integration of user directories(Active Directory for example)
- Integration of address books, free busy information and calendars
- The use of Single Sign on
- Desktop and network requirements
- Mobile integration
- Email migration (domain settings and dual email delivery)
- Data import and migration
- Administrator & user training
