We help our customer control and reduce their IT costs in several ways:

1. Managing networks and IT security is a skilled and complex task, and maintaining these skills in-house is not cost-effective for all but the largest organisations. By maintaining only the IT skills you need in-house you can reduce costs, and Clearstream can advise on the options that provide you with best value.

2. Technology Selection - To control your IT costs in a challenging economic climate you need a partner with competitively priced services that delivers value for money. Clearstream chooses technologies that deliver the right quality and features for your services, rather than simply brands. Whilst we maintain skills across a full range of common vendors such as CISCO and HP, we offer more specialised vendors like SonicWALL, one of our key security vendors.

   Over many years SonicWALL have followed a value/performance strategy, focussed on quality delivery of the most commonly required features, at the most competitive pricing. This strategy has been exceptionally successful, and SonicWALL have grown to a significant global player in the Internet Security market. Recent years have seen enormous investment in R&D such that SonicWALL now outpace many traditional vendors in features and innovation, whilst still exceptional value. Clearstream now benefits from the foresight of early selection of SonicWALL as a preferred vendor, and Clearstream is now one of the most established centres of excellence for SonicWALL on the globe, with more managed SonicWALL customers than any other UK provider.
