    Challenge

    A new hosting platform to support expansion plans

    Transics’ success is built on the ability to connect its TX-CONNECT back office software to its on-board computers in trucks in order to deliver real-time truck, trailer and driver data to customers, which enables them to manage their fleets more efficiently. Transics recognized it needed to develop a hosting platform that would support its ambitious expansion plans and embarked on a search to find a new technology partner.

    Transics had three clear objectives. Firstly, reputation played a big part in the ultimate decision. “We wanted a partner with a proven track record: one which we knew could offer a global standard of managed services,” explains Koen Uyttenhove, Vice President of Customer Services at Transics.

    Secondly, the solution had to represent value for money, providing savings that would reduce the Total Cost of Ownership enabling Transics to reinvest in other areas of the business. Finally, Transics wanted a partner who genuinely understood its business and could offer true value, insight and rapport, as well as the expected high level of technical support on a day-to-day basis.

    Solution

    A highly-available cloud infrastructure

    After lengthy deliberations, Transics opted to entrust its infrastructure to Sungard AS, relying on its broad range of Managed Services and Hybrid Cloud Services to give it the availability, flexibility and agility it needed. Koen Uyttenhove believes the deal will bring numerous benefits, explaining, “Partnering with a globally recognized player will help us win business as customers and prospects will feel safe entrusting their vital data to us knowing that Sungard is running the infrastructure.”

Sungard AS’s private cloud gives Transics a highly available cloud infrastructure to host its business across several sites and frees it from the burden of building and maintaining a costly and unnecessary data center.

    Benefit

    According to Koen Uyttenhove, switching to Sungard AS’s Managed Services has allowed the company to focus its time and resources on improving its range of products and applications instead of merely running its IT.

    • Ability to scale up to meet business demands
    • Fast onboarding of new customers
    • Peace of mind for Transics and its customers
