Daresbury-based cloud provider ConvergeTS wins two contracts

Daresbury-based Converge Technology Specialists (ConvergeTS), has secured major contracts with two law firms.

ConvergeTS will provide a fully-managed cloud service for 60 users at Tayntons, the full-service law firm based in Gloucester, and a fully managed IT service incorporating their cloud disaster recovery service to 45 staff at Manchester-based property law firm Croftons.

The firm now provides cloud-based services and IT outsourcing to almost 60 law firms across the country.

Founder and managing director Nigel Wright, says: “With another two major clients coming on board I feel our investment strategy, aimed at maximising the growth of our cloud services to law firms across the country, is clearly paying off.

“With research indicating that law firms using hosted services will rise from 10 to 90% by 2018, we are delighted that more firms are seeing the advantages of moving to the cloud to help them to become more focused, agile and responsive to market opportunities.”

Tayntons Partner, Andrew Ollerenshaw, said: “I am looking forward to working with ConvergeTS to reap the rewards of improving our infrastructure, disaster recovery plans and our ability to work remotely, as well as having increased accessibility and scalability, which is so important to our business.

“ConvergeTS has a great reputation and fantastic client portfolio, which is why we chose them.

“That they came across as professional, knowledgeable and simply nice people, was icing on the cake.”

Croftons’ finance and practice director, Naeem Dean said: “For us, ConvergeTS were successful because they understand what we do and how we do it, and we feel they have the ability to make us a slicker and more efficient operation.

“I am confident that they will help us achieve our goal to work more flexibly, maintain constant widespread connectivity, recover any lost data swiftly and, importantly, be able to integrate new devices and upgrades easily.

“This will therefore enable us to deliver our excellent service to clients from anywhere at any time. With Converge’s support I am confident we will keep one step ahead.”
