Exciting times! Whether you’re a new start-up or an established organisation with very minimal IT looking to work smarter and reduce costs, Cloud Zion is the perfect partner for a whole new world of opportunities.

Over 88% of businesses are now using Cloud services in some form. Its productivity boosting powers enable businesses to work smarter, cut costs and collaborate on tasks at any time, from any place.

Finding an MSP (Managed Service Provider) you can rely on isn’t always easy, but our testimonials speak for themselves – our customers love what we do because we really do put them first. We’ll never try to convince you to buy anything you don’t need, and after our initial consultation we’ll outline all your options in plain English so you can make an informed decision.

Moving to the Cloud is easy with Cloud Zion. Contact us today to discover how!

Sometimes, it’s nice to do things the old-fashioned way but when it comes to IT, sticking with old equipment is never a good idea. Businesses all around the world are going digital, and those that don’t move with the new technology are in danger of being left behind.

Cloud Zion is the perfect IT partner for companies taking their first steps into the Cloud because we have extensive experience of working with both old and new infrastructures. Over the past decade, we’ve worked with many businesses with only on-premise systems and equipment, effortlessly moving their data and services into the Cloud.

Once you discover the powers of Microsoft Office 365, you’ll be amazed at how much time, effort and money you can save. It’s packed with tools to help people work efficiently, communicate effectively and edit files on the go. Simply log in from anywhere with an internet connection and all your favourite files and applications will be ready at your fingertips.

As a proud Microsoft-certified company, we’re here to support you every step of the way.

Sometimes, relationships just don’t work out. If you’re enjoying the many benefits of working in the Cloud but finding things a little rocky with your current supplier, we’d be delighted to show you a better way.

We’ve been providing first class IT solutions for over ten years, during which we’ve seen some huge changes. As much as we love technology, our driving force has always been keeping our customers happy – which is why so many people trust us with their Cloud services.

From the moment you contact us, we’ll make it our business to ensure you’re getting the very best from the Cloud. Starting with an assessment to identify your current needs and any pain points, we’ll create a tailor-made Cloud solution which will be completely managed by us. Security and software updates will all happen automatically, and we’ll keep an eagle eye on your entire system to keep it safe from harm.

We understand the importance of managing costs and know all the right ways to keep your bills low. In fact, the average customer who moves their Microsoft Cloud services across to us saves 30%.

Our skilled engineers have extensive experience of building systems from scratch and taking over IT support from other companies. We’re experts in everything from Microsoft Office 365 to Azure, so when it comes to Cloud services there’s nothing we don’t know.

In addition, because we know you won’t want any downtime, we’ll be happy to undertake the work over a weekend to ensure that everything’s ready for you on Monday morning.

Moving to Cloud services is easier than you think – call Cloud Zion today.

Hybrid solutions have been the first choice for many wanting to try the Cloud without making a full commitment. We think the Hybrid option is great, because full Cloud solutions, as we understand from experience, don’t suit everyone.

By moving some of your infrastructure to the Cloud with us, you’ll have a clear advantage over your competitors and be able to enjoy significant cost savings. On average, choosing a Hybrid solution with us saves customers 30% on their Hybrid and Microsoft Cloud bills.

Since we started out as an on-premise IT company back in 2008, we’ve helped lots of companies move across to Hybrid solutions and beyond. We know all the best ways to keep your costs down, and can create bespoke solutions that guarantee a great fit for your organisational needs. We’re experts in everything from MDM (Mobile Device Management) to Intune and SCCM (Microsoft System Centre Configuration Manager), so you can count on us to make your transition a smooth one.

We’ll help you leverage all the best bits of Hybrid and full Cloud solutions to keep IT systems running more smoothly and efficiently than ever before, without breaking the bank.

Moving your Hybrid systems with us is easy, so why wait? Contact Cloud Zion today!

As seasoned experts in all things IT, we’re perfectly equipped to guide you through your journey into the Cloud and beyond.

Our combination of no-nonsense problem solving, in-depth knowledge and genuine love for all things IT has made Cloud Zion the first choice for many businesses. Because we offer a full stack of services from Cloud strategy and deployment to maintenance, repairs and procurement, you’ll never be pushed from pillar to post or have to spend hours on hold to a far-flung call centre.

We believe in creating tailor-made IT solutions that add real value, so whatever your needs we’ll be delighted to build a winning infrastructure to take your business to a whole new level. Whether you’ve been using Cloud solutions for years and want to save money or you’re completely new to working virtually, we’re here to restore your faith in the IT profession and help your entire organisation run like clockwork. Here’s how we do it:

Initial Assessment

Knowing where to start is often the biggest challenge to organisations thinking about IT solutions, and what works for one business won’t necessarily suit another. During the initial assessment phase we’ll gain a detailed view of your current situation and needs, identifying key organisational tasks and pain points before providing you with a detailed cost analysis. 

Planning and Strategy

All good business people know the importance of a robust plan, so we’ll project manage the whole process from start to finish with clear milestones and deliverables. Whether you want to run a pilot programme, try traditional services, hybrid services or go straight into a new Cloud infrastructure, we’ll take charge and identify any potential issues for long-term success.

Managed Services

IT issues have long been a common cause of stress in the workplace, so say goodbye to the hassle by handing over your end-to-end IT lifecycle to us. With everything stored safely in the Cloud and us keeping a watchful eye over your business-critical data and systems, you’ll be able to focus on other important areas of your business. Our highly experienced team of experts can provide as much or as little support as you need, including 24/7 monitoring and infrastructure support.

Best Practice and Compliance

Now that GDPR is in full swing, it’s more important than ever to keep your customer data safe and up to standard. As experts in compliance and data security, we’ll create a solid and robust framework that always has best practice at its core.

What are Cloud Services?

Although it might sound a little vague and fluffy, moving to the Cloud is a great business decision. Instead of having lots of big, heavy, energy-consuming equipment taking up space and costing money, you’ll be able to enjoy the flexibility of having everything you need stored remotely. It’s remotely managed and maintained, which means you don’t have to worry about costly on-site systems that need to be upgraded every time a new piece of kit comes along. The Cloud is regularly updated and refreshed, so you’ll always have access to the latest software and security.

Cloud services enable you to run your entire IT infrastructure through the internet. Everything from servers to databases, storage to software, business intelligence to networks can all be stored safely in the Cloud, allowing your business to stay ahead of the competition. You’ll be able to innovate, produce and communicate more efficiently than ever, and when it’s time to scale up, that’s easy too.

Whatever your business needs, we’ll be happy to talk you through your options to come up with a solution that works for you.

We can offer a wide range of solutions including:

Day to day home and business email
Share your files and send emails in the Cloud, with no need for backups, capital costs or downtime. It’s constantly upgraded and monitored for total availability and protection against cyber-crime.

Business 365
With a range of options and pricing plans starting at just £7.95 per user per month, Office 365 Business is the go-to business software programme for organisations of all sizes. It’s packed with tools and features designed to make offices work faster and smarter, with all your favourite tools and applications available when and where you need them.

You’ll have full access to all the latest software and updates and, with all your files automatically synced and backed up, you’ll never need to worry about losing important documents. 365 is like a portable office, bringing all your familiar applications (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and more) direct to your fingertips, anytime, anywhere.

Azure 

One of Microsoft’s best loved and most exciting products, Azure provides the platform, power and networks necessary to operate your business in the Cloud. It works in perfect partnership with popular business software like Office 365 and is easily customisable to suit a multitude of organisational needs. It’s the first choice for organisations looking to move to a Cloud-based infrastructure because it effortlessly handles everything from bespoke business systems to mobile app support.

Businesses all around the world love Azure because it delivers the freedom to build, manage and grow operations using simple, easy to use tools. Our highly experienced team of Microsoft Azure experts will handle your move to the Cloud without any fuss or drama.

Active Directory 

Like a super-powered encyclopaedia, Active Directory stores huge amounts of information about different elements of your network to make it easy to find. It’s a logical, structured way to organise your business-critical data and services, such as servers, printers, accounts and data volume.

The information stored in Active Directory is only available through a strict authentication process, so you can rest assured that your data won’t end up in the wrong hands.

Mobile Device Management (MDM)
With so many people using their mobile phones to access work emails and documents, it’s harder than ever to keep data safe. What happens if a staff member leaves their phone on a train, or an employee leaves without erasing your data? With our MDM service you’ll have peace of mind that all devices used for work are secure and properly monitored. We’ll support you with everything from password protection and multi-factor authentication to implementing a bullet-proof Bring Your Own Device policy for your entire organisation.

Security
With cyber-crime on the rise and hackers always looking for new ways to infiltrate networks, we take a no-nonsense approach to internet security. We use a combination of state-of-the-art technology and in-depth knowledge of how cybercriminals operate to keep your critical data safe from harm. From round the clock monitoring to regular spot-checks and tests, we’re always one step ahead of any threats to your system.

Backups
Even with the best systems and procedures in place, accidents can still happen. User error, new cyber threats and natural disasters like fire and floods can devastate entire organisations, with hard-earned data never being seen again. With Cloud Zion’s backup service you can rest assured that even if the worst does happen, it won’t be a disaster. We perform regular backups, creating picture-perfect copies of your data and keeping it stored safely in the Cloud. So even if a user presses the dreaded delete button and loses a precious document, you’ll have it back in no time.
