IT infrastructure consultancy

We can advise you about technologies, your vision and how to get there.

Whenever IT has grown organically, the result is often a mixture of structures: on-prem systems, the first cloud services, SaaS applications and new requirements from teams, sites and partners. In such situations, good infrastructure consultancy will be needed to guide you: which components are suitable for you – and how can they be used to create a robust whole?

We will advise you about your overall set-up and how to achieve your goals – with a clear focus on cloud transformation and a digital workplace that will work for you every day.

Driving your digital transformation

IT infrastructure consultancy for cloud-first & cloud-only environments

Whether you are looking for conventional virtualisation, state-of-the-art platform-based approaches or cloud services: we will help you evaluate your options, make dependencies visible and underpin your decisions – technically and commercially.

Scope of services

The main components of our IT infrastructure consulting services

Virtualisation & platforms

We will advise you when selecting and further developing your platforms – with a focus on scaling, performance and ease of operation. This will result in an environment that meets your requirements and you can rely on every day.

Cloud services

From IaaS and PaaS to SaaS: we can help you deploy cloud services in the most sensible way to achieve your vision, taking account of the benefits, dependencies and the route towards a cloud-based operating environment.

Modern workplace (Microsoft 365)

A modern workplace needs clear parameters. We can advise you about Microsoft 365, collaboration and governance to help ensure your communication, data and devices stay efficient and easy to manage day to day.

Identity management

Centralised identity management forms the basis of the latest IT operating models. We can advise you about identity and access structures, so that users, roles and external access are managed traceably and consistently.

Licensing

We can help you evaluate licensing models and make costs predictable. That way, you can avoid unnecessary complexity and ensure that investment decisions are transparent.

Operating requirements

Technology alone is not enough – the company itself plays a decisive role too. We sort out the documentation, responsibilities and underlying processes, so that your infrastructure remains stable, comprehensible and easy to operate.

Innovating. Transforming. Succeeding.

Setting up unitop for cloud-based operation: infrastructure for introduction & operation

As an end-to-end software solution that displays your sector-specific core processes, unitop plays a central role within your IT infrastructure. To ensure that implementation and operation run smoothly, the environment must deliver reliable performance, availability, and scalability, while offering a clear route to the cloud.

As unitop is based on Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, we can provide you with infrastructure advice within the Microsoft eco-system, if required: Microsoft 365 for the digital workplace and Azure as the platform for cloud services and operating models. This will create a vision that is suitable for your processes and paves the way towards a state-of-the-art, cloud-based operating environment in a structured manner.

Questions that we typically clarify during this process

  • Which cloud-based operating environment will fit with your unitop deployment and what does a realistic transformation pathway look like?
  • What requirements have emerged with regard to identities, access and operating processes (e.g. roles, administration, service providers)?
  • How do we ensure performance, availability and scaling for your sites and teams?
  • What next steps would make sense to help you plan the introduction and development?
