The Client:
Founded in 1992, William Ryan Homes is the award-winning home builder of more than 10,000 new homes across the United States.
IT Support Coordinator Peter Guzman has been with the company for six years.
The Challenge:
When employees and clients of William Ryan Homes started complaining about slow applications, Peter Guzman knew it was time to go to the cloud.
“Our contractors couldn’t see what their next task was on the schedule, so they couldn’t move things around to reschedule vendors in accordance with construction. Everything was SLOW,” Peter explains.
The on-premise server critical to ERP/ERM was on its last legs and their SQL Server software was out of support. The fiscally prudent choice was to migrate to the cloud to spare the company major capital expenditures. But as the lone IT support coordinator for the whole company, Peter couldn’t manage a migration in addition to production needs. He needed an expert capable of doing the migration seamlessly and the consultant had to be willing to work around the company’s multiple time zones of production. He turned to an expert he trusted in the IT community, who gave him two names. Peter called them both.
