Case Study: MacRoberts achieves faster document access and lower IT complexity with HyperGrid HyperCloud

Legal Firm MacRoberts Deploys HyperCloud for IaaS

MacRoberts, a leading commercial law firm in Scotland, faced significant business risk from its aging and disparate IT infrastructure. With over 40 different servers and direct-attached storage, the complex environment was difficult to manage and scale, limiting the firm's ability to provide fast access to its 40 million-plus documents. They sought a solution to consolidate this infrastructure and improve performance.

HyperGrid implemented its HyperCloud Enterprise Cloud-as-a-Service, an all-flash IaaS solution. This consolidation reduced the physical server footprint from 42U to just 4U, yielding huge TCO savings. The solution provided massive performance improvements for application response times, enabled real-time disaster recovery replication between sites, and gave the firm the ability to scale instantly to support future data growth. HyperGrid delivered more than promised, providing MacRoberts with a modern, future-proof infrastructure.
