Leading Offshore Legal Firm

Our client is a Channel Islands based law firm who specialise in advising international financing and investment transactions. The firm has two offices, the headquarters in Guernsey and a branch office in Jersey. They were experiencing overall IT performance issues in both locations although the Jersey Office, where there was no server infrastructure was particularly troublesome. The slow performance was causing dips in productivity and frustrating staff members. The organisation were looking to increase their overall operational performance and to reduce their bandwidth capacity to make them more effective and productive.

After being introduced to Frontier Technology through an excellent recommendation from Bedell Group, another leading legal organisation in the Channel Islands, the law firm decided to enlist us on this project. “We were aware of Frontier” remarked The Head of IT “We had heard about their fast and efficient service from Bedell Group and so decided to work with them. I’m really glad that we did.”

Our consultants fully analysed our client’s IT infrastructure, considering the needs of the users in the Guernsey and Jersey offices and their current and future business requirements. Based on our findings, we designed a solution using Citrix Branch Repeater.  As a Citrix Silver Partner, Frontier’s consultants have an excellent knowledge of all of Citrix products and solutions. Citrix Branch Repeater provides a high definition desktop and application experience to branch and mobile users. It also reduces bandwidth costs and simplifies branch infrastructure. As soon as the product was installed, it halved the firm’s bandwidth and greatly improved their users’ performance in both offices.

Our client has a 2-3 year business plan in which they will review the solutions and verify the return on investment. It is still too early for the organisation to judge the direct savings but based on the increased user productivity and the halved bandwidth they expect that the savings will be at the very least, in-line with their business objectives.

“I would definitely recommend working with Frontier. They were efficient and extremely capable; they did what was required when it was required” The Head of IT concluded.
