Customer Challenge: System Instability and Data Accessibility Issues

For over 20 years, Hammerco Lawyers LLP (Hammerco) has been a pillar in the legal services sector, consistently helping individuals and businesses to achieve positive legal outcomes. 

Hammerco faced challenges with their existing infrastructure, which was not appropriately allocated to support their business requirements. It was over-provisioned in several areas and required new hardware in others, misaligned with future business scalability, reliability, and sustainability. 

Following discussions with ProServeIT’s Advisory Team, Hammerco made the decision to undergo IT modernization and transition to a cloud-first methodology. 

The Solution: System Optimization and Strategic Shift to Enhance Performance 

ProServeIT conducted a thorough analysis of Hammerco's processes, identified key issues, and developed a set of recommendations to address them.  

Instead of investing time and money in fixing their existing their over-provisioned/under-provisioned resources, ProServeIT recommended a strategic shift to an optimized cloud technology platform (Microsoft Azure).   

ProServeIT helped Hammerco move from on-premises applications to SaaS (software as a service) applications and created hybrid identities for single-credential access. Additionally, their terminal services were replaced with Azure Virtual Desktop which is protected through MFA (Multi-factor Authentication). As well, all their applications were moved to the cloud.

The Impact: Augmented Security Measures and Improved Operational Efficiency

Hammerco's rapid cloud deployment streamlined operations by eliminating the need for Terminal Services while simultaneously providing scalability, improved data protection, and increased flexibility. Hammerco's cloud-based (Azure) infrastructure enables rapid responses to changing business requirements.   

As a result of this modernization, Hammerco was able to give their employees more user-friendly productivity tools and to attract new clients looking for a modern approach to legal services.

As Hammerco continues their journey towards cost optimization, their cloud-based Azure infrastructure will enable growth and innovation. Hammerco is well positioned to achieve its business goals and remain competitive by improving user experience through collaboration and integration.
