Company Established!
Started by Steve Rastall selling mobile devices and developing in .net.
igroup is a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner and Amazon AWS partner delivering consultancy, development, support and hosting of software services in the UK. igroup started out developing software on mobile devices. The company grew rapidly and by 2007 had moved into the Microsoft space focusing on SharePoint, then Azure, and more recently AWS.
Back in 2012 we identified that businesses were suffering from the same repetitive issues around cloud configuration and maintenance, disaster recovery, anti-virus, and malware protection, both prior to, and following on from a move to the cloud. We created a piece of software called Cloud Control, this empowers IT departments to take control and manage their infrastructure.
In 2017, we identified another widespread problem within businesses across the UK. Managing IT infrastructure in the cloud can very quickly run up expensive monthly costs. Most cloud solutions do not provide a straightforward way to track and analyse your usage, or set budget alerts. igroup created IT Cost Control, an IT financial management solution, which is now typically saving businesses up to 30% of their overall IT spend.
We continue to strive to improve the customer experience using Microsoft Azure, Amazon AWS, and SharePoint.
