### In this article

In a software house, every hour without the network is an hour of engineering paid for and not delivered. Velv by OnRising chose not to take that risk: in 2024 it extended its **IT Unlimited** contract with DataRoad - IT Services and Consulting to around 200 workstations. Under an annual contract, we became responsible for the entire infrastructure (workstations, corporate firewall, wireless network, printing, servers and internet access) with proactive monitoring, alerting, reports and immediate remote support.

## The case in figures

- **Client** Velv by OnRising, nearshore software development.
- **Year** 2024.
- **Scale** Around 200 workstations under IT Unlimited.
- **Areas** Business Wi-Fi, firewall and security, servers and infrastructure, managed IT services.
- **DataRoad context** 232 clients under contract.

## Why does a technology company hand its IT to an MSP?

Because its engineers are worth more writing code than rebooting switches. By concentrating everything with one partner, Velv stopped coordinating suppliers and firefighting. It gained three things:

- **Anticipation** Faults are dealt with before they reach the developers.
- **Fixed cost** One monthly fee, no surprises.
- **Visibility** Regular reports on the state of every system.

## What does the contract cover?

- **Users and equipment** Ongoing support and a service desk with immediate response.
- **Perimeter** Managed firewall, network security and protection policies.
- **Wi-Fi and connectivity** Administration of the business wireless network.
- **Core** Servers, cloud and critical connections overseen.
- **Monitoring** Proactive monitoring and alerting; 24/7 cover only on Premium 365.
- **Reports** Periodic detail for management.
- **Maintenance** Preventive and corrective, without interruption.

Thank you to Velv by OnRising for its trust in our network management, consultancy and support.

## What does a software house demand from an IT partner?

- **Technical mastery** Networks, business Wi-Fi and security, with proof.
- **Certifications** From the leading vendors.
- **Engineers who know the place** Not an anonymous queue.
- **Broad experience** Companies of different sizes and sectors.
- **Service commitment** Speed, security and continuity.
