Decades of experience in the assessment and management of complex and heterogeneous IT infrastructures, for small, medium and large companies, allows us to propose improvements to rationalise systems, reduce waste, increase efficiency and productivity:

• Rationalise the current equipment
• Rationalise user profiles
• Plan and manage the technological multi-year renewal of hardware
• Adopt green IT practices for energy efficiency and minimising environmental impact
• Consolidate the number of servers through the adoption of server virtualization systems and cloud computing
• Develop Thin Client networks, significantly reducing the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of workstations
• Collaborate with leading financial institutions to provide financing services for technological renewal (leasing, lease-back or long-term rental)
• Rationalise the distribution of network users, data and services in the various customer locations 

We design and develop the network infrastructures necessary to ensure the highest degree of integration in customers’ work processes:

• We design physical networks (LAN/WAN), as well as installing the necessary connections and structuring the wiring of buildings
• We protect networks, making them secure and high performance (VLANs, access policies, firewalling, QoS etc.)
• We develop Wi-Fi networks (indoor or outdoor, mesh networks, captive portals, point-to-point networks and public hotspots), WiMAX, radio links
• We design high reliability networks
• We supply and configure active and passive network equipment (routers, switches, etc.)
• We implement logical network infrastructure (IP addressing, segmentation of multiple networks, routing, DMZ, etc.)
• We define the necessary bandwidth (warranted, International, MCR, PCR, etc.)
• We analyse network performance using network monitoring systems configured on an ad-hoc basis
• Carry out network fine-tuning
• Design and develop VoIP networks using PoE technology 

Based on our customers' changing business needs and the characteristics of their equipment, we propose and implement plans for the consolidation of server infrastructure aimed at ensuring a more efficient use of resources (computing power, energy, space, volume etc.), reducing the need for hardware, improving performance and reliability, and reducing costs.

a server consolidation project involves the prior analysis and listing of existing infrastructure and available resources, monitoring workloads, the implementation of an operational plan for the analytical transition to a virtualized system (virtualization plan), the migration of physical servers into virtual servers, and a gradual switch of services onto virtual or cloud infrastructure.

The following are the main drivers adopted for server consolidation:

• Virtualization

The following are the benefits provided by the virtualization of multiple instances (OSs) on the same physical server:

• Reduction in the consumption of electricity
• Reduction of costs related to air conditioning systems
• Centralisation of server management, maintenance and upgrading
• A more efficient allocation of available resources (CPU, RAM, storage, etc.).
• Faster and more efficient backup and recovery processes
• Maintenance of legacy systems (such as management or other departmental software) over time or systems that are no longer supported
• Space reduction in the data center
• Reduction of downtime

We guarantee the highest level of competence on the most common and reliable virtualization platforms: VMware, Citrix Xen, Microsoft Hyper-V

• Cloud computing 

If specific needs are identified in terms of resources, volumes and scalability for customers’ information systems, or some of them, we propose the adoption of SaaS (Software as a Service) or DaaS (Data as a Service) cloud computing services. In relation to these systems, we first analyse technical feasibility and cost effectiveness.

We have gained significant experience in the use of the most innovative cloud computing infrastructure available on the current market, Amazon Web Services (further technical information on AWS can be obtained at http://aws.amazon.com/what-is-aws/).

We also install private cloud and data sharing in cloud solutions, combining the ease of use of the most commonly used products (e.g. Dropbox, Google Drive, Skydrive etc.) with the privacy of corporate data (physically located in Italy on servers owned by customers, in accordance with data protection laws). We provide the management and security required of a professional and corporate service, integration with existing architecture, and flexibility.

• Rationalisation of the services

Obsolete and/or poorly maintained infrastructures may significantly benefit from a rationalisation of services aimed at increasing efficiency, eliminate duplication and an improved allocation of existing hardware resources. In particular, the rationalisation we propose aims to eliminate redundant and unused services, upgrade the systems, and migrate to solutions that are lighter, more modern and innovative. 

We implement active/passive IT infrastructure auditing and monitoring systems, using the most popular and advanced Open Source tools available (Nagios, MRTG, Cacti etc.). These tools allow the verification of the entire infrastructure (servers, clients, network devices, etc.) in an extremely granular manner, in order to detect, identify and analyse critical issues in the sizing of available resources and any activity considered abnormal.

This allows taking into account, anticipating and quickly resolving faults and/or inefficiencies, minimising inconveniencies caused to corporate activities. 

The development of any professional enterprise is strongly and increasingly based on the communicative synergy of workgroups: we identify, implement and manage the technology solution best suited for each collaborative work environment, in relation to the specific security, reliability, mobility and usability needs.

The following are the main services included in the integrated messaging systems (VMWare Zimbra, Microsoft Exchange, etc.):

• complete access to your data from any device
• configuration of e-mail boxes according to policies customised for each user
• management of distribution lists
• organisation/sharing/management of contacts, calendars and diaries
• Integrated instant messaging usable even from webmail
• Video-calls
• integration with a BlackBerry Enterprise Server
• integration with VoIP PBX 

We offer customised VoIP communication solutions.

VoIP technology is an innovation that is now a must for companies, because it:

• Minimises telephony costs
• Enables timely analysis and rationalisation of consumption
• Offers greater scalability and versatility (advanced features on calls)
• Allows number portability.

The following are some of the functions of our VoIP solution:

• Integrating VoIP lines with ISDN -BRI and ISDN -PRI and GSM
• Breakdown of outgoing calls by cost centre
• Breakdown of outgoing calls based on the lowest cost
• Workstation manageable via web DISA (possibility of making calls from any phone, as if you were at the office)
• Answering machine service that is general or for individual users through voice mail
• Multi-level interactive programmable auto-responder (IVR)
• Advanced reporting, or call recording (CDR) , with details analysed by date, time, destination and internal number
• Management of calls on hold and call categories
• Automated management of outbound campaigns

• Authentication services, such as passwords and security codes
• Integration with the main integrated messaging systems (Microsoft Exchange, VMWare Zimbra )

The vast experience we have gained allows us to operate as system integrators, is able to physically or functionally connect applications, and heterogeneous systems in order to make them conform to the characteristics of the customer's specific operational and management needs.
In fact, in order to improve the efficiency of business processes it is often necessary to achieve the interoperability and connection of separate computer tools, usually adopted at different times and aimed at responding to the needs of the company’s business sector (accounting, document management, process management, automation, etc.).

Thanks to our extensive experience in the management of complex networks and geographically dispersed systems, we can assist our customers with changes in their business needs that are difficult to manage and have a strong impact, such as:

• Relocation of one or more company offices
• Opening of new offices
• Incorporation of multiple locations into a single site
• Opening of Italian branches on behalf of multinational companies
