Profile:

Hills Office Furniture employ sixty staff at their head office in West Yorkshire. They have been established for over thirty-five years and are considered one of the market leaders.  

Brief:

Hills Office Furniture contacted San-IT with the need of improving their current network infrastructure. Managing Director Paul Simpson said “the network runs really slow with services and hardware constantly breaking down.  Employees are becoming increasingly frustrated with this and I feel we need to renew the entire system to make it a true business tool”.    

Solution:

San-IT conducted a full infrastructure audit report and suggested a full technology refresh consisting of new servers, workstations, firewall, and a backup solution.     

To keep business disruptions to a minimum, San-IT were able to run two systems concurrently with the final migration taking place over a weekend.  San-IT were available to provide training for employees to ensure a smooth transition back into their job responsibilities.        

San-IT continues to provide Hills Office Furniture with ongoing maintenance and user support.
