Case Study: University of Gloucestershire transforms IT operations with Proact

Managed services approach to enable team efficiency

The University of Gloucestershire was facing challenges with its ageing IT infrastructure, which included a lack of a disaster recovery environment and an inadequate backup solution. Key internal skills had also left the organization. They sought a trusted partner to modernize their systems and selected Proact to implement a new infrastructure and provide managed services.

Proact overhauled the university's entire infrastructure estate by deploying new storage, servers, and a backup environment. They also implemented a 24x7x365 managed service for monitoring and support. This transformation provided a reliable, resilient solution, significantly reduced the risk of data loss, and freed up the university's internal IT team to focus on strategic, value-adding initiatives rather than day-to-day operations.
