Around $900/month in external network expenses.
Long wait times & reduced productivity due to insufficient network capabilities
01 The Problem
With most of their business functions in the Cloud, AFI was paying about $900 a month. Because their entire team worked in the office, the network couldn’t handle the load and their productivity suffered. They couldn’t complete tasks in a reasonable time frame. For example, what should take five minutes on their computers was taking up to 15 minutes. Their networking equipment was also installed improperly, causing slowdowns in connecting to the machines and the Internet.
02 The Solution
In 2018, AFI hired Renascence IT Consulting. RenIT brought a server in house, loaded software locally, and cleaned up their internal network issues.
Created an in-house server to improve network performance and speed.
Cleaned up internal networking issues to reduce downtime and improve productivity.
Client Testimonial
We started our family-owned business in 1995. As we grew, we knew we were vulnerable to costly breaches because we had no employees with true IT expertise. That’s why we hired Renascence in 2018 to manage our computer systems, data and security. Their fraud and phishing training is a real eye opener and has kept us from making expensive mistakes. Organized, detail-oriented and very resourceful, they consider every aspect of our business and are much more than a subcontractor. They are our partner, fully focused on helping us survive and thrive
03 The Result
After the initial cost for a server and backups, the new solution cost about half the price AFI was paying and increased their productivity by at least 60%.
- Saved the Accurate Firestop & Insulation around 50% of network expenses.
- Team productivity increased by at least 60%, allowing a faster turnaround.
