As the summer holidays come to a close, back to school can’t come quick enough for most parents. RivaNet, specialists in IT support for independent schools, including Eton, Harrow and Westminster, has chosen MIGSOLV’s data centre in Norwich to secure their servers, infrastructure and data.

RivaNET provides technology and infrastructure, IT support and cyber protection for Independent Schools.  “Protection is everything for our clients,” said Nick Donoghue, managing director of RivaNET.  “High-profile parents entrust schools and colleges with their children’s education and safety.  We must provide the same level of assurance for their data and MIGSOLV’s first-class facilities help us do just that.”

RivaNET delivers tailored IT solutions ranging from managed outsourced services, to infrastructure projects and cyber security protection.  With an impressive customer list, they help their schools optimise their use of technology, whilst demonstrating exemplary IT governance.

“We’re very proud that RivaNET have chosen our Gatehouse data centre” says David Manning, MIGSOLV’s managing director. “Their whole ethos is based on world-class IT for some of the world’s greatest educational establishments.  We’re delighted they saw the same qualities in our services and the level of protection we can provide their critical IT.”

MIGSOLV’s Gatehouse data centre is the East of England’s only purpose-built commercial data storage facility. The heavily guarded building stores business’s computer servers and IT equipment, protecting them from threats including theft, extreme weather and power cuts, helping organisations improve their business continuity, save space, increase their IT’s reliability and plan for disaster recovery.

RivaNET’s equipment is housed in air-conditioned and humidity control racks, with eight days back-up power and some of the fastest connectivity in the region.

“MIGSOLV’s cost were very competitive, but our decision was based purely on service and protection” continues Nick Donoghue. “David and his team couldn’t have been more helpful, and the attention to detail in The Gatehouse is exceptional.  It matches the level of service and assurance our customers demand.”

“RivaNET is another example of an industry-leading business looking for a safe, secure and well-connected home for their data” concludes David Manning.  “It’s a pleasure to protect such a diverse range of businesses, whilst they focus on being such a success in their sector.”
