Network Design
We have experience of installing and managing many differently configured IT environments for a wide range of clients in different sectors, and at different stages of business maturity. Above all, we understand that there is a balance to be struck between leveraging investment in existing infrastructure and new investment in an optimal solution.
Our focus is on the creation of a robust, scalable, flexible environment upon which business applications and solutions can be built cost effectively. The right network will neatly mirror your business and its operational requirements. The right solution is as individual as your business and your brand. Defining, designing and delivering such individualised solutions is one of our core skills.
Clients commission us to design or redesign their infrastructure for a variety of reasons. Their systems may simply be outdated. The shape of their business may have changed, following a corporate reorganisation, geographic expansion, or as a result of recent M&A activity. They may wish to take advantage of new technologies to consolidate or reduce running costs.
Clients may also wish to centralise a previously disparate architecture. They may be upgrading in line with a disaster recovery plan. Whatever the trigger, the key to good infrastructure design is to understand how the network will be used in future, so that current investment is not wasted. During our initial investigation, we seek to understand:
- What is the current shape of the organisation, and how might that change in future?
- What is the desired functionality and user experience?
- How does your organisation wish to work? Who will access what systems from where and how?
- What budgetary limitations are applicable?
- What tradeoffs between functional perfection and affordability are appropriate?
By answering such questions, we are able to design a network around your business and its evolving needs. Beyond this, Keydata Solutions Limited has an excellent track-record in installation and support. We have delivered networks for as few as five users, as well as for hundreds of users and businesses located over multiple locations.
We are consultative - our view is that the best solutions come from listening carefully to clients. We explain our proposals in plain English, and in terms of business benefits, rather than simply providing technical information with quotations attached. This coupled with our technical experiences ensures that we can design the most appropriate solution for each individual client.
