Achieving 99.9% uptime for all of Hall Group’s operations across Western Canada

 
Hall Group of Companies operates in the construction and real estate development industries across British Columbia and Alberta. It’s known for its commitment to safety, innovation, and quality in its projects. For several years, Hall has partnered with Cloud9 Solutions, which provides Managed IT Services and other technical and strategic consulting services. 

Cloud9 has also been able to help Hall achieve and maintain 99.9% uptime across all systems.

“Instead of just trying to sell me on a big platform or service that we may not need, the Cloud9 team truly listened to us," says Hall’s IT Supervisor, Matthew Burke. "They asked a lot of questions to get a clear understanding of our IT landscape and our needs for the future,” he explains.

“I get a very clear sense that they’re looking out for us: recommending what they feel is best, or trying to save costs where possible,” he adds.

At the start of the relationship, Cloud9 conducted a thorough assessment of Hall’s systems, and recommended that they switch out their legacy servers and adopt a far more modern cluster server system. This setup uses several servers working together, which means better uptime, reliability, and the ability to handle more work.

He says that prior to Cloud9, Hall was much more likely to experience an outage, which can cost the business thousands of dollars for each incident. “Now, with new servers and new security protocols, our efficiency and reliability has gone up,” he notes.

“The Cloud9 team puts their heart into their work, and you can see that they are really passionate about what they do,” Matthew adds. 

For Hall Group, dependable technology is key – helping projects stay on schedule, within budget, and ensuring high-quality results.
