FACT FILE

Myerson are an independent law firm based in Altrincham, Cheshire, founded by Neil Myerson in 1982. Neil wanted to provide a city-centre standard commercial law practice in a more pleasant, relaxed and amenable environment. They are now a Legal 500 ‘Top Tier’ rated Commercial Law Firm, and represent businesses and individuals not only in Manchester and Cheshire but throughout the UK and EU, across a wealth of varied sectors.

Mission Accomplished

Previously operating from three separate sites, Myerson now enjoy the benefits of having all operations under one roof in their brand new office location in Cheshire.

  1. The main challenge was to move all technology infrastructure from three sites to one with no downtime being incurred during working hours.
  2. In addition, Myerson had an aging kit which needed to be refreshed – their server, operating system and desktop were over five years old, and were not performing at optimum level.
  3. Firewalls, switching and wireless were also dated, which resulted in often reduced network speeds and impaired wireless coverage, which in turn impacted on productivity and efficiency.
  4. Security is paramount, and coupled with their need for high availability data, they required a more advanced and secure backup strategy putting in place to ensure full operation in the case of a disaster.
  5. Relocating a business can be stressful and often moving ICT can be the most stressful part of it, which is why it was important for Myerson to find a partner they could trust.
