Head office, factory and warehouse on one managed network in Braga: fibre between buildings, measured Wi-Fi and managed firewalls. No-commitment proposal.
More than 10 workstations · support contract · remote, on-site and phone support
For decision-makers short on time.
When the network between head office and the factory goes down, orders, dispatch and invoicing stop at the same time, and nobody can say for how long. DataRoad - IT Services and Consulting, one of the reference names in Portugal for managed networks and IT, designs, installs and manages the infrastructure of companies in Braga and the Minho as a single network: fibre where copper cannot reach, Wi-Fi measured on site, managed firewalls and one accountable partner.
Headquartered in Alfragide with support across the whole country: immediate remote and telephone response, and a technician on site in Braga when needed. The same model serves international companies in Portugal and operations in Europe and the US.
Two kinds, for opposite reasons. Exporting industry (electronics, automotive components, textiles, footwear) needs continuity. Young tech firms need performance. We serve both.
Rarely because of bad equipment. They fail because they were built for the company of five years ago.
One more switch, one more access point, one more server propped against the last. It holds until the day it does not, and nobody knows any more which system depends on which cable.
Head office in Braga, production or warehouse in another municipality. Getting those sites to share systems securely and quickly is decided in the network design, not in the shop.
Suppliers of electronics or automotive components receive security requirements from the end customer: first a questionnaire, increasingly an audit.
And then there are the software houses: they know what they want and spot immediately when the network is the bottleneck. Demanding clients. We like them that way.
First, you decide what must be accessible from everywhere and what should stay at each site. The rest is engineering: secure tunnels between premises, a firewall with rules per segment and a single console, so maintenance does not triple.
We did exactly this on an IT network spread across several branches nationwide, all managed from one point.
| Front | DataRoad delivery |
|---|---|
| Network infrastructure | Certified structured cabling, Layer 3 switching, PoE, fibre between buildings on the same site |
| Multi-site network | Head office, factory and warehouse connected securely with access to the same systems |
| Business Wi-Fi | Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 7 with a coverage survey for office, factory and warehouse |
| Managed cybersecurity | Managed firewalls, segmentation, managed antivirus and an audit dossier |
| Servers and data | Servers, virtualisation and backups with tested restores |
| Continuous operation | Remote, on-site and telephone support, incident management and IT Unlimited for a fixed monthly fee |
Fibre. On sites with several buildings, copper cannot cover the distance, and the alternative is usually a misaligned wireless bridge that drops in the first storm. We install fibre optics between buildings, intermediate racks, CAT6 or CAT6A to the workstations, and deliver the certification of every point in writing.
Fibre costs more on the day of installation and less in each of the following ten years. It is a design decision, not a budget one.

We choose antennas by type of space, power access points via PoE from the rack and isolate production equipment on its own network. The same team that designs the network follows the works on site, in Braga and throughout the Minho.
At Magnelusa we installed the network for an industrial unit. At Sten we supported the network expansion of a company with offices in more than one country. Growing without rebuilding everything and running several sites as one: these are the Minho's two challenges.
All projects in DataRoad client cases.
It costs from €395 per month + VAT on Essential, from €750 on Premium and from €1,200 on Premium 365. IT Unlimited fixes the monthly fee for a defined scope, without counting requests, and makes the annual budget predictable. With several sites that need a technician on site, Premium is the right fit, with unlimited on-site support.
Yes, every site sits under the same management and the same monitoring, as one company. Head office, factory and warehouse in Braga, Guimarães, Barcelos or Famalicão share systems through secure links and a single console. Travel is provided for in the contract from day one.
Almost never. The on-site diagnosis separates what can be kept from what holds everything else back. As a rule the network core and security are replaced first, and the edge is corrected in phases, in agreed windows, so that production and dispatch do not stop during the works.
Yes, we implement the measures and hand over the evidence the auditor asks for. That includes access control, network segmentation, a backup policy with tested restores, an incident log and up-to-date infrastructure documentation. For suppliers of electronics or automotive components, this file becomes part of the relationship with the end customer.
It does, because it frees the technical team for the product. DataRoad takes on the infrastructure, the workstations and security, and discusses every decision with people who understand it. The development team stops losing hours on switches, Wi-Fi and accounts, and gains a technical counterpart with an immediate response.
We respond immediately by remote access and telephone and, when needed, with a technician on site. The network is monitored and documented, so diagnosis starts with the information already at hand. 24/7 monitoring and support at nights, weekends and public holidays exist only on the Premium 365 plan.
Because we manage networks to the same standard anywhere in the country and take responsibility for the whole environment. DataRoad has 11 years in business, 232 clients, more than 138 sites and 1,321 Ubiquiti devices under management and a Top 5% SME distinction (source: scoring.pt). The contract is annual and no lock-in.
We work only under IT Unlimited contracts, directly with the end client. We do not do ad hoc call-outs or sell standalone equipment. Request a no-commitment proposal.
