The Challenge – Server & Disk Space Nearing Capacity
Holland Beckett had been planning to migrate from on-premise infrastructure to a cloud storage solution.
“Our old servers were at capacity and we were running out of disk space.” – Sharline Fitzgerald, Practice Manager
BTG worked quickly to test and migrate their servers over consecutive weekends.
The Solution – Managed Cloud with Local Data Centres
While focusing on improving infrastructure and connectivity performance, BTG and Holland Beckett’s IT team successfully migrated all 120+ staff.
“They were very flexible and willing to give it a go. They gave us a whole lot of their time. I definitely appreciate that.” – Dave Dowie, IT Manager
BTG did the work upfront to get a deep understanding of Holland Beckett’s IT environment before offering new insights and improvements. Whether it’s file management, Office 365 usage or database optimisation, BTG are not afraid to be proactive and suggest enhancements.
“They have a wide range of experts within the team. I know they’ve got SQL experts and they gave our database a once over to see if our settings are optimised.” – Sharline Fitzgerald, Practice Manager
The Implementation – Test & Migrate During a Tight Timeframe
“We started on the migration of all of their servers and storage from their business premise in Tauranga to our data centres. With everything moved the whole team was able to securely access email and data from anywhere.” – Ted Ebbing, Business Development Manager at BTG Tauranga
BTG ran a successful trial without any issues before rolling out the complete migration over Easter weekend.
“I’m very happy with the transition.” – Dave Dowie, IT Manager
