Custom Solutions
Hoople understands that upgrading your IT, or implementing new technology, can be daunting and schools may not necessarily have the expertise or experience required. As an IT services provider to many schools and businesses, our team will specify the correct technology by taking the time to discuss and fully understand your business requirements, installing and subsequently maintaining a system that is suitable to your needs.
We undertake many projects each year and have recently implemented a leading edge virtual desktop solution which allows PCs to be simply swapped out if they develop a fault while the management of your IT solution is handled remotely. This makes a step change in running costs and availability – no more PCs which aren’t working.
For each of the solutions, one of our architects or business relationship managers would be pleased to discuss your requirements at no charge.
