My company sits in a little village in the south of the UK and I have the pleasure to live and work in "paradise" where the views are onto a garden that is NGS registered from 2006 onwards we work together with a range of small and larger local companies and individuals as every business we come across is different and requires a different skills match.
My personal experience and training covers a wide range but there are always limits where it is much more efficient and practical to bring a specialist on board.

In terms of infrastructure and Internet setup we source mainly from the US as there we get unparalleled service and reliability.

Infrastructure we advise to outsource including the management of the actual desktop. My personal experience as IT director for large companies taught me that if the company is not really large specialists get easily bored and "highjacked".

We are happy to give recommendations but would need to know more about the business structure, size, etc. as again there is choice and not every outsourcing company is suitable for each situation respectively business set up.

Just talk to us - we do speak fluent and non technical English as well as German.
