TECHNOLOGY provider Fifteen Group is building on more than 17 years’ experience in the education sector to further enhance its offering to schools and colleges. Fifteen Group offers a wide range of technology solutions, from managed IT support to bespoke software solutions.
IT Support Team Leader Paul Williams says “There has never been a more important time for education providers to review their IT infrastructure, especially as in January 2020 we will see the end of support for Windows Server 2008 and Windows 7 operating systems.
“Not only can accessing the right technology enable schools and their students to achieve their full potential, the right IT support can free up valuable teaching time.
“Whether it be making sure systems are running at their peak, or ensuring data is fully protected, we at Fifteen Group do what we do best, so teachers can concentrate on what they do best.
Fifteen Group offers a range of services that can be tailored to the needs of individual schools.
These can include engineer visits, remote and on-site support, anti-virus software provision and server monitoring.
Jared Eccles, Chief Executive of The Moorlands Primary Federation, said: “We have commissioned Fifteen Group for IT support on several occasions.
“Their team are professional in demeanor, skilled and knowledgeable in practice. In this rapidly changing sector, it is reassuring to know there is an organisation we can contact to solve our small or large IT issues that might otherwise cause our company loss in business.
Paul believes that while schools and colleges are having to look closely at funding issues, technology is an area where they can find value for money – with the right guidance.
He adds “As a Microsoft Partner, we are constantly up to date. Additionally, we have a wealth of knowledge of other technologies offered by Apple and Google and would be able to talk the customer through the pros, cons and value of each solution.
