Take a
hybrid approach

Use the best of on-premise
and cloud technology.

What is the
Hybrid IT approach?

It is giving businesses the ability to leverage their investment in existing on-premise IT infrastructure and have it integrate with cloud technology. A hybrid of both on-premise and hosted IT infrastructure and applications can give your business the best experience for end-users, reduce your total cost-of-ownership and allow you to scale-up and down better than you ever have before. The key is to understanding where your IT workloads perform best.

Placing your IT workloads where
they perform best.

The reality is that cloud, whether it be public or private may not be suitable for all business applications. While some IT workloads such as local File and Print servers may deliver a better experience on-premise, business applications such as email and CRM may be more suitable consumed as a hosted service like Office 365 to reduce overheads and scale with ease. Choosing to use hosted services does not need to be an all-or-nothing investment. Business can move as much or a little as they wish to the cloud.

We’ll work with you on a solution that will tick all of your boxes today and in the future.

Which workloads should my
business move to the cloud?

Only after a thorough assessment of your infrastructure, IT strategy and business can you determine which workloads deliver better performance, ROI and user satisfaction in the cloud. However, we can offer you a high-level view of where other businesses are investing their cloud dollars.
