Alsadhan Trading & Spar: Towards a More Cooperative Workflow
Alsadhan Trading & Spar aimed for a rapid migration of its email data and collaboration platform to Google Workspace. To get there, iSolution helped in project initialization and configuration in addition to users provisioning and management.
The challenge
Alsadhan’s major issue was security and data backups. IT had to waste time exporting data from the exchange server to a local drive. They also had to make separate investments in security systems, from firewalls and inbox security to an on-premises cybersecurity team. They sought a simple and secure solution to replace the existing setup, which would also improve communication and collaboration.
The solution
iSolution offered Alsadhan Trading & Spar Google Workspace to replace the existing Exchange. On the other hand, we did the migration into multiple batches based on departments and domains level, because the migration tool will consume from the bandwidth of the server and to avoid any disturbance for users. Finally we ensured to have the change management sessions running in parallel.
The result
The migration to Google Workspace was seamless and efficient, and has been a valuable asset to the company. Google Workspace has improved SPAR’s security, productivity, and collaboration in a number of ways. In addition, end user training sessions was delivered for all the employees during the migration, in order to ensure that users are not facing any challenges while moving to Google Workspace.
While we were struggling with the on prem exchange environment, we decided to migrate to the cloud with a better collaboration workflow. Thanks to iSolutions’ dedicated support and day to day follow ups, we chose Google Workspace among all other providers, in addition to its great features for the end user smooth experience in one hand and the admins overhand in
the other.
