Case Study: Testing & ConnectivityCustomer: Health & Safety Equipment Distributor
The Problem: - Lack of internet bandwidth and high costs to upgrade - Large potential for new technologies to transform the business, but a lack of testing kit- No budget available for test kit
The Solution: - A Private 30 Mb connection to the Quantix Cloud with a 30Mb break out to the internet, with a private cloud as the “jam” in the middle- A 20% saving on connectivity costs using our wholesale backbone- Currently running a VDI proof of concept in the cloud for call centre staff, which could save the company £50k in hardware costs alone- As the connectivity is through our cloud, it is resilient across multiple data centres
