Optimum Finance was established in 2016 with an ambitious and rapid growth trajectory, taking the start-up from an initial four people to a projected 50 people within three years. The prerequisite solution had to be agile and cost effective to reduce the need for significant capital expenditure.
Optimum were very aware of the need to scale quickly and wanted to implement a solution that would accommodate a high growth strategy providing them with maximum functionality at Day 1. Managing costs and paying on a per user basis were important factors as was ensuring that business data and systems were secure.
Providing a high level of customer service and staff productivity were also taken into consideration when developing the solution for Optimum.
Working collaboratively with Optimum Finance, CNS designed a managed service solution with a monthly subscription to cover all elements of the IT requirement, incorporating:
- Connectivity
- Hosted telephony
- Hosted Cloud Server
- Hosted Cloud Backup
- Microsoft Office 365
- Antivirus
- Managed Cisco Firewall
- Managed IT support
This solution not only removed the need for substantial upfront investment but provides scalable workspace which can be rapidly increased with a small adjustment to the monthly fee.
“Dealing with CNS was easy, they understood the challenges and were quick to respond when unforeseen issues did arise. As we move into the next phase of business growth, I am entirely confident in the partnership and scalability of the technology that has been recommended and implemented by Capital Network Solutions.”
