14 years “Doing IT the right way”

8networks is an I.T. solution provider focused on delivering a professional, quality service for small companies and branch offices. Our motto “Doing IT the Right Way” sums up what we stand for—we are an organisation that focuses on doing the right thing first, with profit and growth second.

Many important items, e.g. backups, security, disaster recovery testing, planning for future growth and documentation are often neglected by small businesses in favour of immediate cost reductions, perceived lack of time, or simple lack of skill and experience. Putting off such tasks is false economy. And for certain businesses, Doing IT the Right Way is even more important:

• Businesses that are members of the FSA or other regulatory body that requires professional IT to be in place and where cutting corners would incur strong penalties;
• Organisations that receive funding or grants from sponsors (e.g. the NWDA or ERDF) that expect IT systems to be installed and maintained to a professional standard;
• Companies that supply to blue-chip, government organisations or other institutions that expect their partners to operate IT in-line with best practice.

In many cases, Directors and business owners choose 8Networks simply because their mind-set is to also to Do IT the Right Way, and they achieve satisfaction from seeing a job well done.
