When AGL came to us on a trusted recommendation, they were facing real challenges with their previous IT support. We took the time to understand how their business operated - and what needed to change.
After a full review of their systems, we rebuilt their IT environment from the ground up. That meant new servers, a cleaner network, and a complete migration to Office 365, all planned carefully to minimise disruption. AGL now benefits from a modern, secure setup, with business-class email, archiving, and compliance built in.
“The team at Ratcliff are always jolly, smiley and helpful. They are very responsive which is a refreshing change.”
