Founded in 2008, Gesto delivers energy consultancy and renewable energy projects in Africa, the Americas, Asia and Europe, with more than 50,000 MW of renewable projects to its name. Its areas of expertise include: - Renewable resource assessment. - GIS and energy modelling. - Energy strategy and policy. - Electrification and rural planning. - Engineering, supervision and project development. It is a global reference in building sustainable energy systems. More information at [gestoenergy.com](https://gestoenergy.com). ## Which areas came under DataRoad's management? - **Users and workstations** Continuous support for every employee. - **Corporate Wi-Fi** Operation and maintenance of the wireless network. - **Servers and critical services** Ongoing administration. - **Printing and internet access** Equipment and connections overseen. - **Alarms** Incidents detected the moment they arise. - **Unlimited remote support** With immediate response. - **Reports** System availability recorded. ## Why didn't Gesto hire an in-house engineer? Because it would concentrate the risk in one person, and buying ad hoc hours would turn every fault into an unexpected expense. Consultants with projects around the world need email, files and modelling tools available at any time. With managed services, DataRoad is accountable for the environment running smoothly in return for a fixed monthly fee. Our interest becomes preventing problems: preventive and corrective maintenance, updates outside working hours and alerts resolved before they reach users.
