Recruitment Industry Case Study

We're currently working with a long established Dublin based recruitment company, which employs over 40 people and has been in the industry for more than 30 years.

We've transferred all of their recruitment and C.V. capture software onto Hosted Desktop, which means their consultants can now operate from anywhere in the world, as if they were in their own office. The company has now been able to move to smaller less costly premises, as all part-time and contract staff can work from home. 

Since the move, we've helped them eliminate five servers from their office, and they now no longer need the costly IT maintenance contract they were paying every month. They were also paying for air-conditioning to cool the servers, which again we helped them to eliminate.

Because Hosted Desktop includes a free upgrade to the latest Microsoft software, they didn't have to replace or upgrade a single computer which was something their previous IT supplier was advising they had to pay for. 

Corporate Training Industry Case Study

We're currently working with one of Ireland's fastest growing boutique sports and corporate training consultancies, who provide their services to many of Ireland's top athletes and corporate executives.

We've transferred all company files and software applications onto Hosted Desktop, which means all five staff now have continuous access to all their IT, even when delivering training programs onsite in a client's premises. Staff can now react instantly to client requests, without having to call back to the office first.

Traditionally, sophisticated and secure IT came with a big price tag. Since the move to Hosted Desktop, this firm now enjoys a state of the art IT setup for a low monthly price, with zero capital costs and no setup fee.The Hosted Desktop system has allowed them to punch above their weight and to impress their corporate clients.

Also, because Hosted Desktop gives staff access to all their files, software and emails from an iPhone or Blackberry, they're now connected to the firm's IT even when they're not connected to a computer.

Franchise Industry Case Study

We're currently working with one of Ireland's top award winning service based franchises, with 18 locations across the country, more than €15 million in turnover and over 150 staff.

We've transferred all their legacy CRM system and accounts software to Hosted Desktop, which means staff now have full access to all of their information anytime anywhere. Doing so has enabled the Irish franchise to avoid having to invest in a costly new software system, while still allowing home working and other productivity boosting initiatives.

Since the move, we've helped them eliminate over 20 servers from their office, move from costly PCs to efficient thin-client computers, save €1,000's on their energy bills, avoid all software upgrade charges, and provide them with state of the art IT collaboration tools. Plus they no longer require the costly IT maintenance contract they were paying for every month.

Of great importance to this firm, was the need for their IT setup to remain stable and secure while their business continues to grow. Using Hosted Desktop means the firm will never again be forced to buy new servers or upgrade infrastructure just so their IT can continue to function. Now they can grow their business, safe in the knowledge that Hosted Desktop can handle any level of growth they experience, all for a low fixed monthly fee.

Accountancy Industry Case Study

We're currently working with a new Kildare based Accounting and Business Advisory practice, whose two partners provide a range of services to clients operating throughout the Leinster region.

We've transferred all of their specialist accountancy software, including Sage Accounts Production, Thesaurus Payroll, as well as access to ROS onto Hosted Desktop. All of this means they have full access to all their IT even when onsite in clients premises - thereby significantly increasing their available billable hours.

The move to Hosted Desktop eliminated this firm's need for computer servers, and in so doing also removed the risk of such servers crashing and the data loss that often follows. They now enjoy an enterprise grade level of IT setup with full disaster recovery plan included, for a fixed low monthly fee.

Since the move, access to all of the firm's files and software is now encrypted and backed-up in real time. Also, because all their data is now stored on our secure servers, the firm has eliminated the risk of security breaches arising from the lost or theft of company laptops. For this firm, using Hosted Desktop has given them a level of IT security and protection that otherwise would have been too costly to implement themselves.
