Now, more than ever organisations rely on technology to access, share and store business critical information and data. How would your organisation cope if there was a sever disruption to this?
For most, downtime quite simply loses money and time and it puts immense pressure on the in-house IT team, when even a few minutes of downtime can feel like an eternity. Of course, no one can predict when or how a disruption will occur, but you can prepare for it. Our business continuity solutions are designed to help you keep your business secure and running – no matter what tomorrow brings:
- Data Replication
- Email Archiving
- Data Back Up and Restore
- Disaster Recovery
- Virtualised Disaster Recovery
- Managed / Hosted Disaster Recover
When we work with a customer we typically start with a Business Continuity Planning exercise to review current systems, processes and recovery times and use this information to form an IT Business Continuity Strategy that takes advantage of the latest technologies such as virtualisation.

Who we've helped
A continued drive for efficiency led Knowsley Council to review its options for the delivery of its Unix environment and move this element of its IT delivery to a managed service.
The Carmarthenshire Division of the Hywel Dda NHS Trust urgently needed to address its information management and technology infrastructure which was a drain on power, space and cooling resources and had a significant lack of disaster recovery.
With increasing demand from prospects of all sizes to provide a fully managed payroll and HR service, the IT infrastructure MidlandHR used to deliver such services came under the microscope.
