The Challenge
GLC decided it needed to outsource their IT function, wanting a firm who could oversee moving sensitive client data to the cloud. In addition, GLC’s hardware and servers were antiquated, requiring major updates. After considering several IT firms, GLC decided the most cost effective and efficient step would be to work with Next Horizon.
