Shortly after joining East Penn Canada in December 2013, I contacted VI Professionals Solutions to assist us in making the leap from on-premises Exchange (2003/2010) to the cloud. When we launched the project in June 2014, the entire IT team at EPC was very new to the business, with less than 9 months’ tenure. VI Professionals Solutions worked side by side with our small infrastructure team to deploy the latest Microsoft tools including, Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Skype for Business (formerly Lync) to our employees across the country. Vlad’s hands on approach and solid knowledge of the Microsoft Office 365 offerings helped us to navigate through the licensing process and the complex migration of a production email environment to the cloud. The transition took about 6 weeks, and although not without some unexpected surprises, was ultimately very
successful.
We are currently working with VI Professionals Solutions on a project to rationalize our complex and disjointed virtual server environment. VI Professionals Solutions is migrating all of our servers to Microsoft Hyper-V as well as providing us with redundancy and back up by replicating our servers to Azure, Microsoft’s cloud infrastructure and computing platform.
I look forward to continuing to deploy our IT Roadmap based on our cloud strategy with the help of VI Professionals Solutions over the coming years. I can confidently recommend VI Professional Solutions as a highly qualified Microsoft services provider to the mid-market.
