Construction Company Reduces IT Overhead with Office 365 and Cloud|AG's Managed Services
Peachtree Corners, GA (PRWEB) June 30, 2014 -- Albion Scaccia, a commercial construction company in Atlanta, has built its reputation on providing quality full service design, build, and construction management solutions to the healthcare, education, worship, and municipal markets. Driven by a continuous improvement philosophy plus a recent hardware failure, Albion Scaccia engaged Cloud|AG to migrate its email and business documents to Office 365. In addition, Cloud|AG will provide additional managed services with AvePoint’s DocAve Online with includes granular backup, restore and administration of their Office 365 environment.
Previously, the company relied upon an on-premises instance of Microsoft Exchange hosted on servers in house and collaborated primarily through email and local file shares. However, Albion Scaccia experienced an incident in 2013 where its server went down for three full business days. During that time, employees could access neither email nor the file share folders where documents were stored, posing a major challenge to business operations and overall productivity. “Losing email and file share access was a critical issue for us,” said Brian Newsome, Albion Scaccia Co-Founder and Executive Vice President. “Right then, we determined we could never be in that situation again.”
With Cloud|AG’s assistance, Albion Scaccia migrated its company email and documents to Office 365, which also included Cloud|AG’s application ServicePoint365. ServicePoint365 is an industry template application developed for Office 365 – SharePoint Online. In addition to eliminating risk of downtime, the solution allowed Albion Scaccia cost savings in the area of IT support resources, which it outsourced through another company.
To manage and protect Albion Scaccia’s Office 365 and ServicePoint365 environment, Cloud|AG utilizes DocAve Online from AvePoint. DocAve Online allows Cloud|AG to protect all of Albion Scaccia’s Exchange Online, SharePoint Online and OneDrive data with granular content backup and recovery to quickly restore lost or corrupt email, documents and sites. This eliminated the threat of downtime for any of the company’s business-critical data. “While Microsoft provides Albion Scaccia with the confidence that its environment can be accessed at all times, DocAve Online allows us to cater to the individual,” said David Huseonica, Cloud|AG’s President and CEO. “If a user needs to restore a document or site that has been lost or corrupted, we can do so within an hour for them through DocAve Online, eliminating any significant business disruption.”
