Full gigabit connectivity for Bristol’s Computer Geeks.

When Bristol-based IT service provider Computer Geeks came to us with the challenge of seriously upgrading their connectivity, we knew it was one we could meet and surpass.

As an IT service provider, Computer Geeks specialise in a broad range of technology services for their clients, ranging from cloud storage and web development to digital infrastructure. However, the usage demands they required was simply not being provided by a shared 25mbps internet connection at their former premises. After moving into new facilities on Thomas Lane in Central Bristol, they knew they needed a better solution.

After receiving a gigabit connection from CityFibre, day to day internet problems were removed. But the most prominent benefits came with the ability to offer new services to their clients. Gigabit connection allowed Computer Geeks to set up a new data centre to be used for co-located backup. This 64TB storage system now enables Computer Geek’s clients to access cost-effective back-up processes with the options to expand at an affordable scale.

“An ultrafast connection for us was crucial for us maintaining excellent customer service,”

“We only sell what we use ourselves,” said Nick, “and the results we’ve seen within our organisation give us tremendous faith in the value, quality and delivery of Triangle Network’s Cityfibre service. When you can go to your clients and offer an internet service that delivers five times the bandwidth of the traditional providers, for half the cost, in a quarter of the installation time, that’s something well worth talking about.”
