Service: Connectivity & Infrastructure

“Alleviate IT Solutions have been brilliant in supporting our needs. Matt was friendly and actively helped us to save money on our IT setup when moving to our new office. We wanted to save on space, so Matt found us some wall-mounted switches to avoid fitting a full comms cabinet, as that's not what we needed. Not only did we save money doing this, but we also saved on space, which was important to us.

I couldn't recommend them more for anyone looking for a friendly and trustworthy IT partner. They even lent us a 5G router while we waited for our leased line to go live.

We look forward to a long relationship with Alleviate.”

Problem:

AXOL had been given the keys to their new office in Leeds but were unsure about what was in place or available regarding connectivity. They had been given a quote for a leased line by another supplier, however nothing in terms of hardware options.

They needed an experienced IT solutions provider to partner with.

Solution:

We carried out a site visit to understand the business requirements and were able to beat the leased line quote they had already received, also providing a much faster connection speed to what had been proposed.

Whilst waiting for the new leased line installation, we loaned them a 5G Wi-Fi router to enable staff to start working.

The office had CAT5e network cabling which we reworked - carefully cutting, re-terminating, patching, and testing every cable run to ensure optimal performance.

Next, we deployed an impressive setup featuring Ubiquiti equipment, including a Lite16 POE switch and a UniFi Express Cloud Gateway. These compact devices deliver serious power while keeping things sleek and modern!

All being managed by a fantastic cloud portal, giving some amazing features such as Advanced Reporting, Wi-Fi 6, Meshing and an Application-Aware Firewall.
