C1 - Network Health Check

Grant Systems offer a network health check that allows you to:

• Create a complete network asset list of hardware and software
• Highlight unused ports on your network that can be re-allocated
• Identify intermittent faults that your other tools will not notice
• Be alerted proactively to faults that occur during the check period

C2 - WAN Review

Save outgoings by using qualified, experienced Grant Systems staff to formulate invitations to tender for the supply of your WAN services.

We have direct experience of most of the large data carriers and have developed and completed tenders for a number of FTSE and NASDAQ top 100 corporations.
