# Velv by OnRising: 90 workstations in managed IT

At a glance For decision-makers short on time.

- 01 In 2023 Velv by OnRising handed DataRoad the IT management of 90 workstations.
- 02 Annual IT Unlimited contract: firewall, Wi-Fi, servers, printing, internet and users.
- 03 Unlimited remote and on-site support, alerting and availability reporting.
- 04 A nearshore software house with offices in Lisbon, Porto and Rio de Janeiro.

### In this article

When a company's product is software for international clients, a poorly managed firewall or unstable Wi-Fi stops being an internal problem: it becomes a commercial risk. It was with that standard in mind that Velv by OnRising, a nearshore software house with offices in Lisbon, Porto and Rio de Janeiro, chose DataRoad - IT Services and Consulting in 2023. The annual **IT Unlimited** contract covers 90 workstations and all the infrastructure behind them.

## Contract summary

| Client | Velv by OnRising |
| --- | --- |
| Activity | Nearshore software development |
| Year | 2023 |
| Workstations managed | 90 |
| Scope | Corporate Wi-Fi, firewall and security, servers and infrastructure, IT Unlimited management |

## Who is Velv by OnRising?

One of Portugal's leading names in nearshore software development, with 200 professionals in a multicultural team and information systems consultancy for several European markets. It also stands out for its diversity:

- **60%** Of its leadership is female.
- **15%** Of programming roles are held by women.
- **45%** Of its client portfolio is international.

## Why can a software house not afford fragile IT?

Velv's clients assess the security of those writing their code. Network, firewall and workstations must match the standard of what the company delivers. An incident in the internal infrastructure would be an incident in the client relationship.

## Which responsibilities moved to DataRoad?

### Perimeter and connectivity

- **Managed firewall** Maintenance, rules and security for the whole network.
- **Corporate Wi-Fi** A wireless network under constant supervision.
- **Internet access** Connections monitored and managed.

### People and systems

- **Support for the 90 workstations** Continuous user support.
- **Servers** Administration of internal servers and systems.
- **Printing** Devices and their integration into the network.
- **Unlimited support** Remote and on site, with immediate response to incidents.

### Anticipation

- **Advanced alerting**: faults detected before they hold the team up. 24/7 monitoring exists only on the Premium 365 plan.
- **Reports**: availability and performance reported continuously.

## What does the company gain from this model?

- **One partner for everything** Network, security, servers and users on the same contract.
- **Fixed cost** A predictable monthly fee, with no hours counted.
- **Prevention instead of reaction** Preventive and corrective maintenance included.
- **Visibility** Availability figures instead of impressions.

For Velv, this means operating efficiently and securely, with no technology interruptions weighing on its deliveries.

## DataRoad says thank you

We thank Velv for its trust in our consultancy, network management and managed IT services. The commitment is simple: availability, security and performance without failures.
