The company were looking for an end-to-end solution, technical expertise, regular account meetings and an effective cybersecurity strategy.
Solution:
From the offset, razorblue worked to put an end-to-end IT strategy in place for Midas. This included Managed IT end-user support, with proactive monitoring and an SLA of 2- 4 hours response time.
Our teams carried out a full Windows 7 replacement, updating all users to Windows 10. As well as Office 365 licensing and implementation, with a secure cloud backup solution.
We deployed and continue to manage the firm’s SOGEA superfast connectivity, as well as a Horizon hosted phone system.
Their dedicated, technical Account Manager worked with Midas to create a full cybersecurity strategy, including email security from Mimecast. ESET Endpoint Protection, firewalls, and MFA (Multi-factor authentication).
To address the firm’s ageing physical server, all corporate data and systems were migrated to a razorblue hosted cloud server along with cloud backup solutions and remote access.
