Connectivity Services


Leased Line Services


Businesses are in the market for more band-width to accommodate increasingly rich data and video applications. Buying what they need as and when they need it.

Because our Ethernet service is offered in increasing speed increments, with a gentle step change, it enables you to choose the ‘right size’ solution and so avoid the cost (and the waste) of network over-extension.

Our Lease Line service provides you with a dedicated cable to your premises. This cable can then either be used to access the Internet via our (Internet Lease Line), or to provide a secure, high-speed connection between your premises (Point to Point Lease Line).

Ethernet Lease Lines also come with attached SLA (Service Level Agreements) from the provider. This results in quicker fault escalation and a guaranteed time to fix, something that Fibre connections do not offer.

Leased Lines are also un-contended and work on a 1:1 contention ratio. The line is yours for your traffic only.

Features and Benefits

Ethernet Lease Lines enable quick, stable connectivity to the internet.


 

 

 

Dedicated Server Hosting


More organisations are looking to have their website, e-mail and other servers hosted externally. Coupled with this is the requirement for increased flexibility and scalability to cope with changing circumstances. This is where traditional hosting solutions can be inflexible. There is now a clear requirement for a new type of solution that can meet these demands.

Our virtual hosting platform enables customers to benefit from a hosted virtual infrastructure that is more highly available and robust than traditional hosted services. Utilising market-leading VMware technologies, it offers immediate access to the proven benefits of virtual infrastructure.

















Virtual hosting offers a number of distinct advantages over traditional hosting solutions. Dedicated server offerings often lead to long-term over-capacity and a lack of flexibility, whereas our virtual hosting platform enables customers to instantly add or reduce their hosted virtual infrastructure capacity. Virtual hosting also enables customers to rely on increased flexibility and system availability that is simply not possible with traditional hosted offerings along with automatic data and systems protection and rapid recovery from failures.

Here at Vixsoft we understand that every business requires a tailored infrastructure depending on the requirements. As every business has different needs Vixsoft will tailor all infrastructure to the client needs pending site visits and creating a full scope of works for your peace of mind that you understand exactly the work we will carry out for any projects. 
Once a site visit has been carried out Vixsoft will carefully build a package together for all hardware and infrastructure needed to implement into the client network. Prices will vary depending on the specifications of the hardware and what the client is trying to achieve as an end goal. 

Benefits

  • Cost effective - provides enterprise computing power at SME pricing
  • High availability - our virtual hosting platform automatically restarts a virtual machine affected by hardware failure on a different physical server, ensuring minimal down-time
  • Scalability - enables new capacity to be easily added and removed based on fluctuating needs. Customers can increase computing resources without the time and expense required to provision new hardware
  • Serviceability - enables non-disruptive migrations of virtual machines from one physical server to another, ensuring that hardware can be serviced without any service interruption


Features

  • Utility-based computing - a flexible pool of IT resources so customers can draw capacity as needed
  • Server-based desktop management - We can host virtual machines in our data centre that customers can access from thin-client desktops with zero maintenance
  • Disaster recovery - utilising VMware features such as live migration of virtual machines. We can offer a service that enables you to recover from unplanned outages with as little downtime as possible.

IT Support & Consultancy Services


Networking & Security


Modern technology is enabling business communication in ways never before imagined. But with the advances comes new and potentially devastating threats - both internally and externally. Many Businesses make the mistake of concentrating on technical areas before examining their information security policy. We look at the "bigger picture" approach by looking at the critical areas of your organisation.

We will help you find practical ways to enable your business to secure and protect your information systems using industry leading technology and solutions. Most understand the need to protect cars, homes, and jewellery against the unknown. But many businesses don't protect their most important asset - their information. Could you survive without your servers, internet or email for a day or for weeks if a building fire keeps you out? Vixsoft Systems can provide contingency plans for your valuable information.


How do I secure my network and data?

No single solution protects you from a variety of threats. To defend against multiple types of threats it is recommended that you use multiple layers of security. If one fails, others still stand. Network security is accomplished through hardware (Firewall's, Routers and Intrusion Prevention Systems) and software (Anti-Virus and Anti Spyware Solutions). The software must be constantly updated and managed to protect you from emerging threats.

Vixsoft Systems can manage and maintain your systems, removing the outlay for your own I.T. Personnel while still having a team of experts monitoring and keeping your data and network Infrastructure safe.

Managed firewall

We can plan, install, configure and manage firewalls in your network.

Using equipment from our partner company ZyXEL, we place protection around the network to prevent unauthorised access from external sources.


Managed remote access

Providing secure access to a highly distributed workforce is a challenge for any IT infrastructure small or large. Employees travel or work from home. Contractors and suppliers need controlled, secure access from their locations.

Through remote access services, we can design, implement and manage your remote network access solution. We provide network infrastructure that lets users securely access your network from PCs, smartphones or PDAs.


If you need to connect offices securely, protect your data or you wish to deploy a network security infrastructure, Vixsoft Systems Limited can help.


 

 

 

Virtualisation


Virtualisation is a proven software technology that is fundamentally changing the way businesses compute. VMware virtualisation lets you move away from the traditional "one server, one application" model to running multiple virtual machines on a single physical server. This is achieved by using a VM Hypervisor that provides a mapping layer between the manufacturer's hardware components and the virtual machine itself.

When an operating system is installed on a virtualisation platform they are viewed as objects that appear and behave just like a physical server, with all its resources (CPU, RAM, storage and networking) and features (root/admin access, a complete operating system, application stack, reboots, etc.). But in reality, multiple virtual servers run side by side on the same piece of hardware, the physical (host) server.

Today's applications and operating systems only use a fraction of the resources available on a physical server. This means valuable computing power sits idle for long periods of time. VMware virtualisation puts those untapped resources to work for you, and reduces your IT costs at the same time.

Sounds good but how does this work for smaller companies who need more IT Capability, Less Cost and Complexity?


Small and midsize organisations face unique IT challenges. Your entire company runs on a few important applications, but reliable business technology can be complex and expensive. VMware makes IT simpler to manage and use, highly reliable, and a lot less costly - for tens of thousands of small and mid-size companies. Our solutions can do the same for you, so you can stay focused on managing and growing your business.

Run a Lot More Apps on a Lot Less Hardware


VMware virtualization consolidates your apps on many fewer physical machines, which are easily managed as a pooled resource. Nothing changes for your applications. Performance levels stay high or soar even higher, while you gain dramatic benefits:

  • 80% greater utilization of every server
  • Server count reduced by a ratio of 10:1 or better
  • Up to 50% savings in annual capital and operating costs

When an app or operating system fails, the problem is fully isolated: no other workloads are affected. When a server goes down, impacted applications are automatically restarted on another machine.

So what can Vixsoft do to help you make this move to Virtualisation?

Whether it be consolidating a few servers to reduce overheads and give you more flexibility or it be 100's of server we can assist you every step of the way from proof of concept to complete installation and migration of Physical to Virtual servers and maintain if required.

IT Outsourcing


Smaller companies IT systems are just as important as the global enterprises. At Vixsoft we understand this. The difference is that the skills, services and solutions which larger organisations IT operations take for granted have typically been beyond the reach of the small to medium sized business.

We can help bridge the gap and deliver enterprise-class solutions and services to the medium enterprises through to the small office user. You will not experience a difference in level of service. If you are a small office user or an organisation of a 1,000 users, to us IT in business is critical and not dependent on your company's size. Our Solutions can optimise your business systems by reducing IT overheads, maximising efficiency and overall service capability.

We can remotely manage your infrastructure so your staff can focus on their primary roles within the organisation. This is why our support and services are the preferred choice for technology solutions for many small and medium enterprises.
