Working at Arcus

Our Unique Experience

No other Cloud business in the UK has our unique blend of experience and innovation

We performed our first Google Apps for Business installation in a Unitary Council in October 2009. This was done without breaking the codes of connection and compliance standards required by our client. Furthermore, the implementation fully integrated with their legacy in house e-mail, allowing a smooth and gradual migration of users.

We have performed a similar project using Microsoft Office 365 (formerly BPOS) in January 2010 at a large County Council. Our fantastic feedback and ongoing relationship with both clients clearly demonstrate our commitment and approach.
Since then, we have deployed, integrated, set up, trained and developed a multitude of cloud tools and applications, across multiple public sector clients, giving us unrivalled experience of dealing with real problems of when “Legacy” meets “Cloud”

Ongoing Projects
