Driving improved performance through collaboration
The team at Redbridge Council were looking to deploy a modernised, more manageable platform to meet the needs of their key internal stakeholders
and enable an efficient user experience. With ageing infrastructure and slow systems at the heart of their existing platform, they wanted to progress on
their cloud journey with a partner that put the organisation’s needs first and had strong attention to detail.
The Challenge
An ageing infrastructure meant that Redbridge Council struggled with significant performance issues that negatively impacted end-user experience and the manageability of their system. They also wanted to better utilise cloud services and reduce the physical footprint of their data centre.
The Solution
Proact worked with the council to deliver an efficient, performant and easy-to manage solution based on VXRail; a hyperconverged platform incorporating ESX and Horizon. This significantly improved performance, eased pressure on Redbridge’s IT team and enabled the provision of enhanced digital services to local residents
We felt a rapport with Proact straight away. They’re very knowledgeable, very friendly and are really like an extension of our team.’’
