How We Do It

If you scroll down a bit, we’ll tell you more about what it’s like to partner with String, and how we do it.  But first, we feel it’s important to tell you WHY we do what we do.

Basically, we’re business-technologist at heart.  We’ve spent years using technology to deliver strategic business outcomes to our clients using the right technology at the right time.  We’ve experienced the pleasure of seeing transformational technology make the lives of people easier; the level of customer service delivered by our clients so much better; and their businesses grow with us.

It’s for this reason that many of our clients have been with us since we were formed; over 20 years ago.

So, How Do We Do It?

We don’t just sell hardware and software; we co-design your solution with you.  After all, our experience and knowledge can only go so far; it’s when we combine it with your knowledge of your business that we can, together, do great things.

From our very first meeting with a prospective client; we talk about their business, rather than our technology.  You can hear more about ‘what we do’ here; but in simple terms we focus our solutions and services across three areas:

Productivity & Engagement

We use Microsoft’s best-of-breed solutions to boost our clients’ employee productivity and engagement by introducing collaboration, communication and mobile & flexible working.  This frees their colleagues up from their desktop; allowing them to work from anywhere; with anyone; on any device.

Platforms & Places

Our Platforms & Places solutions allow our clients to use the best possible hybrid-cloud platform for their current (and future) needs; delivering scalability, performance and connectivity solutions for their IT infrastructure.

Security & Continuity

By deploying our Security & Continuity solutions, we provide protection from the latest (and next) generation of threats for our clients’ endpoints, on-premises and hybrid cloud infrastructure components.  And, should the worse happen, our fully managed cloud-hosted business continuity solution is there to get them back up and running in under one hour.

It’s not just about new clients of course; to make sure our existing clients continue to get the most from their investment in technology (and us); we keep working with them to introduce new innovations as they arrive.
