When Headhunter’s previous IT consultant was getting out of the business, he recommended they reach out to Vertical IT for all of their IT needs.

As a manufacturing firm, Headhunter depends on their information technology to streamline day-to-day operations, automate time-consuming tasks, protect sensitive data, and improve communication and collaboration in the workplace. When their IT systems aren’t working properly, they’re unable to remain productive and efficient.

The Situation: A Need for a Responsive IT Support Company to Replace Their Previous IT Consultant

When their previous IT consultant was getting out of the business, he recommended they reach out to Vertical IT for responsive and reliable IT services and support. Scott Mulligan, Sales Engineer at Headhunter, explained, “He introduced us to Vertical IT and they came in to take care of our network and IT systems.”

He continued, “When we initially started with them, we did a large upgrade. They replaced our servers and set up backup software. Our equipment was getting outdated and out-of-warranty, but they were able to lessen the cost of the monthly managed IT services by installing new equipment.”

The Resolution: A Range of IT Services & High Level of Expertise to Handle All of Their IT Needs

Since working with Vertical IT, Headhunter’s staff members are able to have peace of mind knowing their data and IT systems are secure & reliable. Scott discussed their new backup system compared to their old one, “We had a local backup server to backup stuff on tapes, but it wasn’t managed very well; now they have their backup server that gets uploaded every 15 minutes to two separate locations!”

Vertical IT also provides managed IT services, including managed anti-virus, firewalls, monitoring, and maintenance – all for one low monthly cost. Scott offered some insight, “It gives us peace of mind not having to worry about IT issues. They’re monitoring the network and tickets are generated automatically when something pops up.”

He continued, “They’ve done a great job making sure that everything works smoothly, and if something goes down, they’re here to fix it right away.”

Plus, Headhunter takes advantage of ongoing managed IT services and IT support that goes above and beyond to meet their unique needs. “They definitely go above and beyond! I’d definitely recommend them.” said Scott.
