Case study: Children’s Food Trust - moving to the cloud and O365 integration

Our client

The Children’s Food Trust is a national charity formed by a government agency in 2005 with the brief of improving nutrition for UK children through education and advice.

Its vision is that all children have a balanced diet, cooking skills and the food education they need for good health.

Their challenge

They approached igroup to move their infrastructure to the cloud with the goal of improving access to information while controlling costs to maximise benefit to their users.

The solution

Our team of Azure certified experts conducted workshops with key stakeholders to identify their full requirements for the cloud and how they would integrate Office 365. Their key needs from the project were:

Reliable infrastructure
Compatibility with Office 365
Excellent Value for Money

The benefit

Choosing Cloud Control, an automated resource management tool, and share AD servers, reduced the charities operating costs whilst maintaining the required high levels of data security.
The Azure platform with Cloud Control delivered 99.999% up-time with SLA.
The Microsoft cloud solution provided perfect compatibility with their existing software.
