Network Interlinks and Rise show benefits of cloud for all businesses

Rise, a leading provider of hosted services, together with Network Interlinks, a disaster recovery and business continuity specialist, have partnered to make cloud services available to customers across the UK.

The go-to-market relationship has already demonstrated why businesses from all sectors are benefiting from infrastructure-as-a-service and cloud services, securing customers in the textiles and engineering markets. Network Interlinks, which prides itself on providing IT services for a diverse client base, approached Rise due to increasing demand for cloud services.

Since then, Network Interlinks has championed the adoption of cloud based services and used Rise’s DataCenter on Demand™ platform to deliver services such as disaster recovery, online backup and a centralised system for remote working to its customers, including Marson Fabrics, a textiles manufacturer, and Haste, an engineering company for utilities.

“We always ensure that our customers have access to the latest technology to meet their bespoke business needs in a simple and cost effective way, so when we decided to add cloud services to our portfolio, we needed a partner with the same business ethos. Partnering with Rise has meant that we are able to do just that. Rather than providing an out-of-the-box solution, Rise collaborates with us so that we can take the complexity out of cloud for the customer, which are primarily SMEs,” said Richard Lunn, Sales Director at Network Interlinks.

James Henigan, Managing Director of Rise, added: “We are constantly striving to improve how we work with individual partners and end users, and an important part of this is understanding the customer’s unique business challenges, no matter the sector. Our cloud technology gives Network Interlinks customers a competitive advantage at a cost effective price point, and enables SMEs that otherwise may be wary of IT, to better understand why cloud services is right for them.”
