What were their issues?

  • The client’s existing IT Incumbent had been under performing. Due diligence was not being given to ensure their systems were operating optimally and that all staff had smooth and reliable user experiences with their applications and equipment.
  • The client was spending too much time managing ongoing conflicts between existing service providers.
  • IT support was unavailable to staff that worked outside of traditional business hours.
  • Productivity was being affected by ongoing IT issues which were difficult to manage.
  • The primary server had not been maintained or upgraded since 2014 and was left vulnerable to security and malware threats.
  • Neither an on or off-site backup solution had been implemented, putting them at a high risk of data loss without disaster recovery measures

 

How Did Planet Solutions Come to their Rescue?

  • Provided the client with a Fully Managed IT services solution, which allowed us to take full ownership of all day-to-day 1st to 3rd line IT operations.
  • Ongoing maintenance, development and continuous improvement of the client’s IT infrastructure became the responsibility of our dedicated Account Manager and service desk engineers.
  • Our IT Department will now liaise with all 3rd party vendors on the client’s behalf.
  • Immediate attention was carried out to patch and service the client’s server to secure it from security threats and improve performance.
