Challenge:

Nitecrest sought a trustworthy and reliable IT partner to adapt and expand their IT infrastructure and drive their business forward. They required a partner to work alongside their internal IT Manager to manage complex technical tickets in an agreed SLA. Unlike standard user tickets this agreement includes more complex issues, such as server or firewall complications which needed resolving quickly.

Nitecrest were experiencing a period of growth and therefore needed a supplier who could help them utilise technology to suit their business.
