IT Force, in partnership with Strencom, has secured a contract valued at more than €150,000 to provide a combined private cloud and connectivity solution to coffee retail chain, Insomnia.
"We had encountered a number of difficulties in relation to our IT infrastructure and connectivity network, resulting in persistent issues in store. Ultimately our IT resources were being devoured by small and repeat issues, which was both frustrating and expensive in terms of downtime and staff resources", said Bobby Kerr, chairman of Insomnia. "The IT Force and Strencom solution made perfect business sense for us, enabling us to eliminate the IT issues, while providing a smart network that was scalable and robust from which we could now deliver customer Wi-Fi, contactless payments, loyalty cards and other services we may require in the future."
Strencom’s Cloud Connect and Virtual Data Centre suite of services has enabled all of Insomnia’s retail stores and back office functions to move to the cloud, using an uncongested private network which triples the bandwidth available to the organisation and its outlets, yielding greater cost efficiencies and better security through the combined cloud and connectivity solution.
"As the ‘virtual IT department’ for Insomnia we feel we can now offer a higher level of service", said Joe Molloy, director of managed services, IT Force.
Tim Murphy, CEO Strencom, said: "Having combined the connectivity with cloud solution, and following the recent launch of our Virtual Data Centre, Strencom is working with a number of partners to deliver the Strencom Cloud-Connect solution to corporates and enterprises in Ireland. This is a best in breed solution, and this is evidenced by the excellent response we have had from the market to date."
