Commonwealth Advisors needed a secure, reliable and compliant managed network and server environment. As a
financial services company, Commonwealth Advisors required a robust disaster recovery (DR) capability to ensure
against data loss and to meet new stringent governmental regulations regarding the storage of email and other
employee communications. Commonwealth Advisors chose Pragmatix Gold, a managed IT service consisting of a Microsoft
small business server hosted at a secure IBM e-Business facility. An IBM Built on Express Advantage Offering, Pragmatix
Gold enables businesses to protect, access and manage their information, network and IT processes with complete
confidence. Pragmatix manages all aspects of Commonwealth's information technology, including backups, server management
and monitoring. Commonwealth Advisors IT environment includes dedicated hardware, email and shared calendars, website
hosting, corporate intranet, file server, SQL database, SharePoint collaboration tools, secure remote access, mobile
messaging, 24x7 monitoring and professional proactive management by Pragmatix. In addition, Pragmatix Gold includes
online backup, email and web security. Commonwealth Advisors can now focus on their business and customers while having
the confidence that their IT network is secure and in compliance with governmental regulations.
" When a company's system is
disabled, the ramifications are typically confined to that
business. However, in the financial services industry people's
wealth is at risk and the need for disaster recovery is
considerable greater. Investment Management is a highly
regulated field and has strict record retention requirements
surrounding email and other employee communications. Most
investment management firms do not service their own technology
needs, but do require a secure network that is dependable
and consistently operable.
With the Pragmatix solutions, businesses like ours are able
to focus on our clients without concern for our technology
and business systems.
Pragmatix enables my firm to access
our critical systems remotely, regardless of location and
ensures that we always have a secure environment that is
always reliable."
