“Cloud Cover IT was selected as our IT Service Provider offering a secure, cost effective and simple solution to our complex IT needs.

Mariessa Devlin, Managing Director

Overview

Enchanted Forest is an award winning nursery group that employs more than 85 highly trained and skilled staff. Under the directorship of Mariessa, their philosophy is ‘being the best we can be’. Their success has meant that they now have five nureseries spread across the West of Scotland which are open 51 weeks of the year. It is vitally important that they can securely access records for their tiny customers as well as their parents from any location.

The Solution

We successfuly migrated all e-mail accounts over to Office 365 with a single sign on enabled to reduce the complexity of the IT systems for all users. All files were migrated on to a custom-built SharePoint solution hosted within Office 365. This allowed secure access by authorised staff from anywhere, whether on a company site or at home.

The VPN system was compltely overhauled with the firmerware on all routers and connectivity being upgraded where required. We now host their server in our secure comms room, providing a secure and easy to access environment for the equipment.

Summary

Enchanted Forest now have a network they can rely on while being able to easily access files from any location securely. We continue to support their business as they grow and win award after award.
