Real Results

How UK businesses benefit from managed server support.

Manufacturing Company, Midlands

A 150-person manufacturer was running Windows Server 2012 with no patching schedule and no monitoring. A ransomware attack exploited an unpatched vulnerability and encrypted their file server.

Full server estate migrated to Windows Server 2022. Automated patching deployed. 24/7 monitoring in place. No further security incidents in 18 months.

Professional Services Firm, London

A law firm experienced repeated server slowdowns during peak hours. Their internal IT team could not identify the cause and users were losing productivity daily.

Performance analysis identified a misconfigured SQL service consuming excess memory. Tuning completed in 4 hours. Performance issues resolved permanently.

Healthcare Provider, North West

A private healthcare group needed to demonstrate patching compliance and server monitoring for their cyber insurance renewal and CQC inspection.

Full patch compliance achieved within 6 weeks. Monitoring dashboards and reports provided as evidence. Insurance renewed at reduced premium.
