clevertechnologies can build your network infrastructure from the bottom up. We employ teams of highly qualified technicians, experienced in electronic and electrical engineering, digital communications, network design and installation. Our Technicians have the full technical resources of many major distributors and the vast knowledge of manufacturers like Intel, Lucent, Krone, Hellermann Tyton, and 3Com. clevertechnologies are experienced in the design of local area networks and wide area networks (also known as LANs and WANs).

clevertechnologies are able to include Wireless and Laser communication technologies into a network infrastructure where Line of Sight is available and it is either impossible or to costly to use hard wired solutions.

Security

As well as being aware of the potential advantages that modern communications technologies can offer, we are also aware of the potential pitfalls and are able to help clients avoid them. Two potential areas of concern for most organisations are cost and security. clevertechnologies are able to help organisations design and implement an appropriate IT security policy and, through strategic deployment of key products, ensure that this policy is enforced. Key technologies include Firewalls, Content Checking, Virus Scanning, Strong Device & User Authentication, Intrusion Detection and Policy Management tools. Other security technologies such as Virtual Private Networking (VPN) can be used to not only enhance data protection but also help to reduce the cost of external data communications.

Internet

Through our partners clevertechnologies are in a position to offer fast reliable internet connectivity to your existing or new network. We can make sure your internet connection is safe and secure, both disallowing prying eyes from outside and making sure internal users only use your connection for work and not recreation.

Platforms

clevertechnologies are able to both recommend and supply a wide variety of Intel based computing hardware including Notebooks, Desktop PC's, High-End Workstations and Server platforms ranging from single processor departmental servers to large multi-processor, mirrored server solutions for data centre deployment. Our team of technical experts will be able to advise on specification details and advanced requirements such as fault tolerance, high availability and scalability. In order to ensure that we are able to cater for your complete computing platform requirements, clevertechnologies can also provide a wide range of ancillary equipment such as Printers, Print Servers, Scanners and Windows Based Terminals.

Operating Systems

Microsoft Vista Packaging

As Microsoft Solution Providers, clevertechnologies focus primarily on Windows-based solutions, including Windows 9x/NT/ME/XP/Vista work station platforms and Windows Small Business Server or Windows NT/2000/2003 server platforms. As well as embracing Windows technology as a distributed computing platform, we have also recognised the potential for strategic deployment of Windows-based applications from a central server or server farm. The benefits of this type of approach include increased data security, enhanced system control and high performance over low bandwidth connections (such as the Internet or remote access link). As Citrix Silver Partners with considerable experience in both Citrix Winframe and Microsoft Windows Terminal Server Edition/Citrix MetaFrame platforms we are able to advise our clients on the potential benefits of "Thin Client Technology" to their organisation and provide the necessary skills to ensure a successful installation.

Applications

Microsoft Office Packaging

If you have already found the applications that you wish to deploy clevertechnologies will be happy to design, install and support the most appropriate computing infrastructure. If, on the other hand, you require help and assistance to find a specific software application we will be happy to use our considerable contacts within the IT industry to find the right solution.

clevertechnologies are able to both supply, deploy and support most major Microsoft applications. Through key alliances and partnerships clevertechnologies can also offer specific task based applications such as computer based Faxing solutions, e-mail solutions (server and client), accounting and resource management to name a few. Alternatively, if neither party can find the right application to meet a specific requirement, our team of software analysts and developers can always design and create a bespoke application.

Our applications ensure that even the most demanding business process can be integrated into an effective I.T. solution providing enhancements to both productivity and control.
