Business challenge

Clients that rely on uptime

One of Inkline IT’s major customers is carsales.com.au, a wholly online organisation that relies on IT as a key enabler of their business.

“Carsales relies upon their 3PAR SAN infrastructure as a key enabler of their offering,” said Craig Amour, Director of Sales at Inkline IT. “Having such a critical piece of infrastructure unavailable for longer than a few hours has a significant impact on their ability to deliver to their customers.”

Inkline needed a solution that ensured carsales.com.au key infrastructure was online, guaranteed no matter the day, time or place.

Solution

Giving their clients high service and support

Inkline IT delivered the peace-of-mind carsales was looking for by quoting Interactive’s infrastructure services.

From maximising the life of their expensive assets to having the certainty of continued operation, Inkline IT is pleased that the Interactive infrastructure support solution is working for carsales.com.au “It gives them confidence that their infrastructure will remain available and, in the event it did fail, they have the backup of parts in Melbourne and an engineer less than 2-hours away any time of the day”, says Craig.

With service levels that exceed those of the vendor, Interactive’s infrastructure services are a perfect solution for mission-critical infrastructure requirements.

“Everyone we have moved to Interactive stays, mostly due to the quality of service”
