Cloud IT Solutions

The future of small and medium business technology that will save you money and increase efficiency.

Companies are starting to utilize cloud computing in higher concentrations. The recent boom in the capabilities of utility computing in the cloud presents many small and mid-sized businesses with alternative ways of substantially enhancing production anywhere there is Internet access. Cloud computing presents solutions for any of your business’ problems; from e-mail, to communications, to a full-scaled hosted infrastructure. In this way cloud computing is presenting companies of all sized considerable benefits.

Cloud servers and their role in business

With Oxon Tech‘s virtualisation solutions, we are able to set up, manage, and support your organisation’s computing infrastructure.

In the past, businesses needed to purchase, run, and maintain their entire IT infrastructure on premises. This created capital and operational costs that strained the limits of the organisational IT budget along with the company’s computing capabilities. The cloud is changing the face of business computing. Your server is now able to be housed on our secure data centre and maintained by our experienced technicians. We use hypervisor technology for streamlined hardware utilisation. This cuts down on energy expenses and provides fast and secure computing delivery that allows your company financial flexibility in regards to their IT.

At Oxon Tech, our hosted solutions ensure your company is delivered a secure and efficient computing infrastructure that enables you to focus on the administration of your business and not your IT.

Hosted Desktop

A cloud-based computing platform designed specifically for your business.

Today’s workers need more from their computing platforms. They need them to be consistent and redundant and, most importantly, available from wherever they are. At Oxon Tech, we offer a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) platform that can transform your business by providing the custom computing interface, application deployment, and cost reduction that is attractive to both the modern company, and the modern worker.

Flexibility

The resources your company needs, available from anywhere.

Today’s workforce depends on the flexibility to work from different locations, on different devices, at different times. With Oxon Tech’s VDI, the hardware and applications your staff depends on is virtualised and hosted in the cloud to give them the access to all the computing resources, applications, and databases they need to be productive, on the devices they prefer 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.

Cost-reduction

VDI offers substantial cost savings over traditional computing constructs.

Businesses spend a lot of money on hardware. With our VDI platform, organisations can reduce that money spent on hardware, as the interface is hosted through the cloud and can be delivered through thin clients and mobile browsers. Beyond that, since the hardware is virtualised it is managed and maintained by the cloud provider, support costs are cut while providing a customisable, reliable computing platform for each member of your staff.

Control

Complete data sovereignty allows for enhanced security.

You can set up your VDI to allow your employees access to data without the access to change or copy it. This provides the kind of data security you need when your staff depends on the data, but doesn’t need the ability to manipulate it. Our VDI deployment allows companies that have recognised that they have problems keeping their data secure to take full control over it, while still maintaining a comprehensive computing construct their staff needs to complete their jobs efficiently.

How our VDI works

Our hosted desktop solution is cloud computing at its best.

Oxon Tech technicians will perform a full assessment of your organisation’s computing infrastructure, noting what applications you use, how you store your data, and other factors that will go into designing a reliable VDI solution. Using today’s most dynamic virtualisation tools, we will then work to digitise your applications and data onto partitioned infrastructure that is hosted in our datacenter. Through the use of virtual machines, we are then able to provide access through a web browser to a platform (typically Windows OS-based) where each user will have access to the applications and databases they need to perform their duties. Since the VDI interface is accessible from anywhere, you free every user in your organisation from the confines of the traditional workstation, providing them a custom interface in which to be productive.

The IT professionals at Oxon Tech are here to help your organisation build efficiency and be more productive, boosting the overall profitability of your business and promoting organisational growth. If you would like more information on how to leverage VDI to help build a better business, call us today at 01865 594100.

Cloud Backup & File Sharing

The proliferation of dynamic cloud solutions can be a major benefit for your business.

Many organisations are considering cloud computing a solution for the problems that their mounting IT costs cause. Since cloud solutions are generally billed monthly, the cost becomes a solid operating expense. To avoid overwhelming capital outlays, companies have begun utilising cloud-based systems for hosting their communications (phone, email) and even their entire computing infrastructure. This shift has opened up a large number of vendors to shift their primary computing offerings to the cloud, allowing you options that you never had before. By doing this, they have been able to develop and integrate more dynamic solutions that present companies like yours with substantial value.

Consider how much your organisation spends on the management and maintenance of your IT infrastructure. If you could get a fully-managed and current cloud solution for a fraction of the cost you are currently paying, wouldn’t you jump at that opportunity? The trusted IT professionals at Oxon Tech offer enterprise file sharing and secure cloud backup solutions that present organisations like yours with options that weren’t available to them just a short time ago.

Microsoft Azure

Integrate the services and applications you depend on with a scalable cloud platform.

Many modern businesses are searching for ways to enhance the mobility of their business. Integrating technology systems that expand their access to mission-critical data is one effective way to improve operational agility. With so many cloud solutions on the market, it can be difficult to measure what your business needs in a dedicated cloud computing platform.

For your cloud needs, Oxon Tech offers Microsoft’s Azure platform. Azure offers a quality cloud interface that is detail-oriented and allows your organisation to integrate many options, including analytics, data sharing, and application deployment in a flexible and dynamic online environment.

A flexible and dynamic platform

Azure is compatible with the most popular software titles on the market.

Thanks to its incredible versatility, Microsoft Azure is compatible with several different operating systems, programming languages, and frameworks. The secure Azure platform gives users access to critical information systems, allowing users to be productive when and where they need to be, and on almost any device.

Furthermore, Azure has the capabilities to augment and improve your existing IT infrastructure, making it simple to integrate it as a hybrid cloud solution. This gives administrators all the computing power they require, while limiting the infrastructure’s complexity. The certified technicians at Oxon Tech can help your business integrate a cloud solution like Azure that caters to your organisation’s specific needs.

Security-Oriented Solutions

Retain maximum compliance and data security with Azure.

One of the largest concerns small and medium-sized businesses have about moving some or all of their organisation’s computing to the cloud is a result of worrisome privacy and security breaches. It doesn’t help that stories of data breaches are so pervasive in the news. These reports naturally cause some very real concerns as businesses seek to to preserve the integrity of their organisation’s sensitive data. Doing so requires high-end security protocol and compliance management, but with Azure, you get state-of-the-art security to keep your information safe.

Oxon Tech understands that your business’ data is its most valuable asset. A secure Azure cloud deployment has many built-in features designed to provide thorough security. By augmenting your business’ Microsoft Azure cloud solution with secondary hardware-based security measures, you can drastically improve the state of your network’s security.

Scalable plans for any business

Small, medium, or even large – all kinds of companies use Azure.

No two businesses are alike, especially when it comes to their technology needs. Some organisations need a minimal amount of technology in their IT infrastructure, while others need a diverse, robust system to handle excessive workloads. In fact, it’s estimated that 57% of all Fortune 500 companies rely on Microsoft Azure as the framework for their business infrastructure.

Some organisations bundle services together that aren’t absolutely necessary for every aspect of their business. This is why Oxon Tech’s Microsoft Azure cloud integration solution is ideal. It helps you budget IT expenses around fixed monthly payments, rather than hefty up-front costs, effectively turning giant capital outlays into a single operating expense.

Cloud Hosted VoIP

The traditional business telephone solution is showing its age.

Due to the Internet and online technologies like the cloud, organisations are finding it difficult to justify keeping a traditional phone line for their communications solutions. Considering how difficult it is to scale a traditional PBX phone system to accommodate for growth, businesses want a more dynamic solution that’s in line with their current, and future, needs.

With a cloud VoIP solution from Oxon Tech, your business can finally cut expensive telephone services out of your budget, and replace them with flexible solutions designed to address your organisation’s communications needs. By taking advantage of a service that you already use – the Internet – you can secure the communication platforms your company requires while removing unnecessary service costs.

Reduced communications expenses

Say goodbye to expensive telephone services.

Telephone service providers will often bundle services together in an attempt to make more money and to provide consumers with the opportunity to get more for their money. This consolidation may not turn out to be valuable, however, as your business might not use all the services the package provides. With cloud VoIP, you get exactly what you pay for – no more, no less. This helps you build a solution to best align with the specific needs of your business.

Adjustable for growth

Easily add users, extensions, and phone lines.

The traditional PBX phone system is often difficult to work with, especially if your organisation is experiencing significant growth. For each new user, new phone lines and extensions have to be added to your telephony infrastructure. With a cloud VoIP solution, your phone infrastructure is much more dynamic and new users can be added easily. You don’t have to lay new phone lines or remodel your office every time you add users.

Fully-hosted and maintained

You worry about your business – we’ll worry about your phone system.

Managing and maintaining a telephone system can be complex and difficult, especially if you already have other priorities, such as managing your day-to-day business operations. Small businesses often don’t have the staff on-hand to take proper care of their technology solutions, including a hosted communications solution. Oxon Tech can provide the care needed to ensure that you get the most out of your telephone system, while maximising uptime.

Get the most from your phone system

Implement a hosted cloud VoIP solution today.

If your business wants to succeed in a modern and ever-changing environment, you’ll need tools that let your workforce stay agile and at the forefront of the competition. To learn more about how cloud-hosted VoIP can benefit your business, give us a call at 01865 594100.

Data Warehousing

Manage your data in a way that can help your business thrive.

Oxon Tech technicians work hard to protect our clients’ data. Our tried-and-true practices and expert technical knowledge have kept the data of several Oxfordshire businesses safe and secure. With the expense associated with data security and redundancy, wouldn’t it be great if the data did more than just sit there waiting for someone to access it?

Data warehousing is the act of aggregating your organisation’s transactional and non-transactional data in a central repository for use in business analysis. The purpose of warehousing your organisation’s data is to use it to make more accurate decisions about the management of your business’ operations. With our data aggregation service, Oxon Tech offers Oxfordshire businesses a powerful tool to help them resolve many of their organisation’s most costly inefficiencies.

Build the business your were meant to have

Warehouse your data and take advantage of powerful analytic tools.

Most of a business’ data is stored in databases; and, those databases typically stand alone. By combining the information, and aggregating the data in them, organisations can better analyse the operational health of their departments. Since much of business is a multi-departmental affair, data from multiple sources can be helpful in understanding just how your company does business. As a core component of a comprehensive business intelligence process, the data warehouse allows BI software to cut through the vagaries and use data to get at the truth.

Since warehousing data is a relatively big undertaking, it’s important for the modern business to have consultants, technicians, and vendors that are there to support their shift to a modern analytic approach. At Oxon Tech, our certified technicians are well versed in creating efficient business environments for companies of all sizes, and can assist your administrator in implementing a structured, secure data warehouse solution to move your BI initiatives forward

Take control of your data

Oxon Tech has many solutions to help you control your data.

If your business isn’t ready for a full-scale, enterprise-level business intelligence platform, making sure your data is safe, secure, and easy to retrieve if needed should be a priority for your business. Among our vast array of data management services we offer:

• Data storage
• Database management
• Data migration
• Data backup
• Disaster recovery
• And more

If your business is looking for a way to learn more about its operations, boost efficiency, or protect all that you’ve worked for, look no further than the IT professionals at Oxon Tech. For a consultation, call us at 01865 594100 today.
