Modernisation always starts with an audit. We map the network, measure performance and identify failures, risks and equipment at its limit. Only then do we propose work, in writing and by priority, so management knows what each euro invested solves and what can wait for a later phase. ### Does all the equipment have to be replaced? Not everything needs replacing. We reuse what is in good condition and replace only what limits or endangers the network, with a phased plan matched to the company's budget. The audit states what stays, what goes and why, so no purchase is made without justification. ### Does the company have to stop during the work? No, the company does not have to stop. Critical interventions, such as replacing switches or reorganising the rack, are done out of hours or in phases. Each phase is tested before the team returns to work, so Monday starts with the network running. ### Who maintains the network after modernisation? DataRoad maintains the network through the IT Unlimited contract, with continuous management and monitoring. The same team that modernises it maintains, expands and documents it. We do not do one-off call-outs or sell standalone equipment, because that is the only way we can answer for the network we installed. ### How does the management contract work? The IT Unlimited contract is annual, renews automatically with no lock-in. Plans start from €395 per month + VAT for Essential, €750 for Premium and €1,200 for Premium 365. DataRoad works only with companies with more than 10 workstations, always directly with the end client. ## Related services and guides - **Business Wi-Fi**: [business wireless networks in Lisbon](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/business-wifi-lisbon-managed-unifi-wifi-7/). - **Managed support**: [remote, on-site and telephone support in Lisbon](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/premium-365-lisbon-24-7-managed-it/). ## Next step: a no-obligation network audit and modernisation proposal Request a network audit and a no-obligation proposal.
