Contract-Central Relocates IT to VISI’s ReliaCloud™ Service
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (PRWEB) July 10, 2013 -- Today, VISI Inc. announced they have signed a three-year agreement with Contract-Central, a Dahl Consulting company. VISI, a division of TDS Hosted & Managed Services, LLC (TDS HMS), will provide ReliaCloud™ cloud services along with managed services and Internet bandwidth for the Minnesota-based consulting company.
“It was time to move to a local hosting provider with a sound reputation of delivering strong customer support,” said Kevin Moldestad, Operations Manager for Contract-Central. “Our IT infrastructure was aging and we were working with an out-of-state hosting provider that was not providing the customer service we needed. Simply, the time had come to make a switch that will allow us to focus on our clients rather than our IT. After careful evaluation, we decided VISI and their Minnesota-based ReliaCloud service would be the best solution for us. I felt the sales team understood my needs and would be easy to work with as we grow.”
Contract-Central, based in St. Paul, Minn., is a leader in providing solutions to corporations in their quest to procure contingent and full-time staff. The company partners with customers to find creative ways to blend the acquisition and hiring process into one "Human Capital Management" arena.
In choosing VISI’s ReliaCloud service, Contract-Central is able to transfer their IT infrastructure to an Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) model. By placing their data on VISI’s ReliaCloud solution, the company can more efficiently care for the day-to-day management of job postings and requisitions for their customers.
VISI offers a comprehensive suite of products and services, including: colocation, managed services, hosted services, and cloud computing infrastructure for small- to enterprise-sized businesses throughout the Midwest. Through its sister company, Vital Support Systems, VISI also sells, installs, and manages IT infrastructure solutions from world-class hardware and software vendors such as Cisco, EMC, Hewlett Packard, VMware, Microsoft, and Citrix.
“We appreciate the trust Contract-Central has placed with our company,” says Terry Swanson, CEO of VISI. “It is our job to do everything possible to ensure they have uninterrupted access to their data and servers. We look forward to providing the IT infrastructure and customer service Contract-Central needs and expects.”
