How the planning service works
Members of the Cantarus Infrastructure and Consultancy team will work with the buyer to determine which services are required or currently in use and that they are correctly specified for the application in use. The outcome of this process will be documented in a schedule of work for build of the environment. Once services have been built, migrated and tested a handover to our Customer Success team will be provided, during which training on our support ticketing system and timebank reporting will be provided via an online session.

We can also assist the buyer with consultancy and advice on implantation of a digital transformation strategy.

How the setup or migration service works
As we have operated our own private cloud hosting solution for over 10 years, we have performed hundreds of migrations across multiple platforms. A member of the consultancy team will work with the buyer to investigate what services and applications they currently use, how they are used, and provide advice on best practice for migration. Once this initial consultation is completed this can be handed back to the buyer to implement themselves, or to one of our implementation teams who will work with the buyer to migrate their services.
