The Story:
Earlier this year, GadellNet met with a Non-Profit Organization with approximately 30 employees. While the majority of their employees were based in St. Louis HQ, many worked remotely. They had a limited budget, so they challenged GadellNet to come up with a viable solution that met their needs, but minimized their spending.
As usual, GadellNet spent the first meeting gathering an understanding of their existing set-up, the type of information they generate and fully understood their budget and timeline. Using Open Source Software and Cloud Computing solutions, GadellNet was able to quickly create networking operation for this Non-Profit group. This provided this company with e-mail, document storage and collaboration, built-in redundancy and backup solutions for their business. The best part was that no matter where in the world the employees were, there was always access to their organization’s data.
In addition, they fully utilize GadellNet’s 24/7 support desk to ensure that they never have downtime.
