New businesses often add IT support only after they’ve established themselves. That can be a short-sighted approach. As demonstrated by this windfarm operator, getting IT support from the start can provide a springboard for rapid and sustainable growth.
When a windfarm operator set up operations in 2010, they aimed to expand rapidly. And they realised their IT systems could not be allowed to hold back business. In fact, IT not only had to grow with them, but also assist in their business expansion.
Initially, the windfarm operator would have offices in Sydney and Melbourne which would need seamless access to data. A document management system was therefore a first priority. As they built windfarms across Australia, employees at those sites would also need to be connected to data and to the offices.
For many SMBs, IT is looked after by staff who don’t specialise in IT or security, leaving businesses exposed to threats.
The need to strengthen cyber security and defence processes is essential for many organisations. With the potential for significant amounts of compromised data, finding a partner who can keep their network safe and re-instil peace of mind is priceless. Thankfully IT Smart Solutions and our Smart Security package brings together a scalable Managed Services plan and advanced security capabilities to keep your professional service safe and secure from both external and internal cyber threats.
With the servers reaching end of life, and the IT coordinator moving on, the team at CIS knew it was time for a change.
Until 2018, The Centre for Independent Studies had relied on on-premise servers, with IT managed by a part time internal staff member. With the servers reaching end of life, and the IT coordinator moving on, the team at CIS knew it was time for a change.
After conducting due diligence, the then General Manager Jenny Lindsay, selected IT Smart Solutions as their new IT Managed Service Provider (MSP). CIS first approached IT Smart Solutions with a problem in the mail server. However, knowing the on-premise servers were set to expire, Jenny also wanted to improve the overall IT infrastructure, bolster security, and improve productivity. With no internal specialist IT resource, CIS also required ongoing support and guidance from IT Smart Solutions.
