Moving to iland Cloud, now 11:11 Systems Cloud, results in significant cost savings.

Prolateral Consulting, a UK-based company providing hosted IT services, was experiencing rapid growth. This growth led to an increase in costs, particularly for purchasing more hardware. The company had racks of equipment in co-location sites in the UK and Germany. However, as the company grew, it needed additional sites in Europe and the USA, which meant the capital cost of equipment, maintenance, and local support services would all increase drastically. The company was reaching its capacity as a co-location and had to add expensive hardware. This, coupled with the poor state of both the UK and global economies in 2010, resulted in cost reduction becoming a priority for the company.
