Case Studies
We have a great range of products and services with experienced engineers deploying them, and that is why so many businesses choose to trust in Equanet.
Whether it’s installing a handful of PCs or configuring a new server, we have the resources and knowledge to take on any size of project.
Below you’ll find examples of cutomers we have helped – details of their specific challenge, how we helped to solve it and how they’ve benefited.
- BAE Systems They needed a highly specialised critical component, we worked throughout the day and night contacting suppliers all over the world, and made sure they received the part within plenty of time.
- Isle of Anglesey County Council Struggling to communicate on dial up lines between public buildings, we implemented a RF and point-of-sight infrastructure. The project won several awards and there have been no infrastructure issues.
- Longslade Community College The Media Studies course needed a creative media suite, we designed a system over the half term break with 30 Macs and licenses, with enough scope for expansion over the next three years.
- Middlesex University The School of Arts needed a specialised processing suite. We built 47 Mac Pros with additional features and devices. They have since had higher student enrolment - attributed to the improved facilities.
- Newbury Weekly News They had purchased a server two months earlier, but hadn't had the time to install it. We sent an engineer to configure it, migrate data over and remove the old one in an afternoon.
- NXP Semiconductors Having spun off from its parent company, their Network Manager was spending time away from the office. We supplied an engineer two days a week for six months - extended to 12 months.
- Royal London Group Royal London needed to centralise their Software Asset Management for all their businesses, they wanted a Microsoft Licence review and to ratify their processes.
- Rugby Borough Council With data distributed between many servers, it was difficult to backup and the email was susceptible to hardware failure. We designed a SAN and tape backup, and migrated their email users overnight.
- St Bridget's RP Primary School - Mobile Computing The school sourced the funding for a UMPC for every child, and our HomeWorks team provided 30 Samsung Q1 tablets with warranties, insurance, keyboards, carry cases and other accessories.
- Stoke on Trent College The college needed repairs of 91 laptops quicker and cheaper than the manufacturer's warranty could provide, we worked with our partners to produce a bespoke contract that fell within budget.
- Thales Thales needed an IT partner to complement their existing eProcurement suppliers, we designed a punchout catalogue with preferential pricing and Thales are now of our most significant eProcurement customers.
- The Money Centre With over 70 inkjet printers, they were wasting money on upkeep. We ran a print audit and installed 10 multifunctional devices, allowing printing to be done in-house and saving £45,000 a year.
