be adjusted on-demand. It is ideal for environments that include
automation of administrative tasks, dynamic scaling, desktop
virtualisation and policy-based services. It is also well-suited for
any of your workloads that are temporary, experimental or change
unexpectedly. We host hardware, software, servers, storage and

eliminates the capital expense of deploying in-house hardware and
software.

effective, flexible and secure alternative to the traditional
in-house managed software and packaged applications.
This will improve mobility for your users allowing them instant
access via any web browser to emails, documents, software

obtain the same benefits of commercially licensed, internally
operated software, without the complexity and the high initial
financial outlay. Our model allows you to pay monthly, per
user which allows scalability to meet the company’s needs.
Your applications will be managed by our UK based 24/7
team of qualified engineers, providing you with the
