PROJECTS

Over the years we have helped clients with many upgrades, moves and migrations. Scroll through the list to see the kind of things we’ve been up to.

Office 365 Email Migration

Having a ten year old server, the client decided to move the email into the cloud. After synchronising the local network user database with 365, we began slowly migrating user mailboxes up to the cloud platform. Process was designed to be gradual and 6 weeks later all mailboxes were migrated with minimum downtime. Old server decommissioned.

Server Virtualisation

We had a cabinet full of 6 physical servers. Each machine was dedicated to a particular task e.g. email, database or file server. Using virtualisation techniques we gradually replaced each machine with a virtual counterpart. All servers now running on a single physical machine reducing costs & space requirements. Virtualisation also provides a platform for fully comprehensive backups that can be run during business hours.

SharePoint Migration

Customer using Dropbox installed on every machine on the network. Constant file conflicts and performance issues prompted the need for an alternative. Migrated all files to SharePoint and configured each machine to access the site. Customer very happy with end result.

Data Centre Move

Client moved to a managed office that did not allow the use of local IT equipment. Before the physical move we replicated the servers from his old office to the datacentre. On the day of the move the old physical servers were shutdown and the client used the cloud based replicas immediatley after moving into the new office.

Cloned Installations

Following Covid-19 we were contacted to provide 12 laptops ASAP as staff were working from home. After building a base machine, clones were produced rapidly. Within 48 hours all staff were home based and working well.

Server Upgrades

Following the expiry of hardware warranties on the end users server we offered a replacement machine. Existing virtual servers were migrated across to the new box with little downtime seen by the customer. 

Secure Erase

Customer had around 60 PCs and 3 servers all on an expired lease. Due to GDPR these machines could not be returned unless they were cleansed. Using specialised hardware we were able to simultaneously erase 8 machines in any one cycle. Two or three visits later every machine was securely wiped and ready for shipment back to the supplier.
