IT Support for Recruitment Consultancies

Westtek understands recruitment companies are totally reliant on their back office and IT systems, especially their email system. We appreciate they need to keep an up-to-date database of all candidates – perm, temp and their own clients' contact details. We have been dealing with all the top recruitment software packages such as RDB Pro, Bond and Voyager for years on behalf of our clients. We remove the blame culture from day one and make 100% sure they keep on working as fast as possible.

Tasks such as emailing candidates' CVs and updating back office systems put quite a high demand on both the IT infrastructure and business support. Westtek can advise on many ways to cut IT downtime, increase productivity and therefore increase sales. Backups are essential, but restoration is critical. Did you know that 68% of tape backups fail when doing a restore?

Typically, recruitment companies will have anything from one office to multiple offices in different counties and cities. Consultants need the ability to hot desk between each office, as well as to upload and download information while on the road. The installation and set-up of a terminal server/Citrix servers - and now cloud computing - have been best practice for this, as data can be consolidated into one office and backed up daily or hourly. If the user base exceeds 50-100 users we would recommend you collocate your server to a data centre on an internet connection of 100mb/s to meet the speed demand.

We are always looking for ways to improve the workflow and flexibility of software for recruitment companies using innovative apps for the iPhone, iPad, Blackberry devices and other smartphones.
 
Over the last 15 years we have helped many recruitment companies grow by installing and supporting IT solutions that are right for their business. Now the time is right to consider moving to 'the cloud', which can save considerable sums in capital expenditure, Microsoft Licenses, electricity costs and ongoing IT business support.
