Solution-Soft Success Story (09-24-2003)
Solution-Soft is an established and growing Silicon Valley software firm with fewer than 50 employees. Like most software companies, they have many technology needs not the least of which is a reliable, accessible Internet presence. As with any business, increasing quality of service and reducing costs are priorities for Solution-Soft. Because of these needs, Solution-Soft sought the advice and services of Osiris Communications to provide them with a solution that would be more cost-effective and stable compared to their previously in-house supported option.
With the help of Osiris, Solution-Soft was able to outsource many of their network requirements needed to be a successful, Internet-based business. By moving their customer and partner-related network resources to Osiris Communications’ facilities, they were able to significantly reduce the cost of their internal computing and Internet bandwidth requirements while increasing network reliability and security.
Within one month of moving their Internet presence to Osiris, Solution-Soft was able to scale their office Internet connection from a high-speed, mission critical connection costing over $1,200 per month to a smaller business-class Internet service costing less than $300 per month. In addition to reducing the cost of their Internet service, they saved money by reallocating their high-available power-backup systems to new equipment that otherwise would have required additional expenditure. Further, the move to Osiris eliminated the requirement for an on-call staff to handle after-hours emergencies.
In addition to hard cost savings, the quality of their business-critical system infrastructure increased. Osiris Communications’ redundant connections and power consistently provides 99.99% network uptime. Our nightly backups and the physical security within our data center ensure that Solution-Soft’s data is always protected.
In the more than two years that Solution-Soft has been a customer of Osiris Communications, they have saved over $150,000* in facilities, bandwidth, and staffing costs. Solution-Soft is testament as to how outsourcing multiple critical systems can drastically reduce costs while increasing the reliability of their business-critical system infrastructure.
