Aspex helps clients get there faster thanks to the knowledge and attitude of its consultants. Aspex specialises in providing cloud services to other companies, mainly SMEs and software developers (ISVs). To assist them with this, the Antwerp IT supplier Aspex has been relying on Axxes for years, which brings in experienced consultants to help realise challenging projects with the latest cloud technology. Currently there are about ten experienced Axxes consultants working for Aspex.
"The speed with which our partner delivers consultants is one of the reasons why we have worked together successfully for many years," says Tim Van Broekhoven, Program Manager at Aspex. "The IT knowledge of the consultants is always up to date, which allows them to quickly adapt to various assignments. At Axxes we provide a lot of training and knowledge transfer. The consultants also pass on their knowledge acquired with all their clients internally. The main reason for our collaboration remains, of course, flexibility. If we were to employ someone permanently for every project, that would limit the possibilities for our company."
THE SPEED WITH WHICH AXXES DELIVERS IT CONSULTANTS IS ONE OF THE REASONS WHY WE HAVE WORKED TOGETHER SUCCESSFULLY FOR MANY YEARS.
STAFFING: RESPONDING QUICKLY TO MARKET NEEDS
As a result of its rapid growth, Aspex needs IT professionals who can quickly take care of technical implementations for new customers. Van Broekhoven: "Because IT and cloud evolve very quickly, we often need that expertise. It is important that we can quickly attract people with the right attitude and knowledge. We can fully rely on Axxes, we don't need to worry about that."
Thanks to their long-standing cooperation, Axxes knows very well which activities Aspex carries out, the type of consultants they are looking for and their corporate culture. In this way, Axxes always succeeds in finding the right man or woman for the job. "We have indeed been working with Aspex for more than ten years," says Benjamin Goessaert, Managing Director at Axxes. "Thanks to this long term relationship, both organisations understand each other's culture and we know very well what our client expects from an IT profile. This is not just about their technical knowledge, personality also plays a major role.
AUTOMATION OF USER MANAGEMENT
Aspex automates user management and its follow-up. Mathias Hoofd, System Engineer at Axxes, is a consultant working on such an automation project at Aspex. "I have been working here for about a year as an Axxes consultant. I am currently involved in a project where I am automating the creation of users. This used to be manual work, but now everything is laid down in flows, which makes it possible to work more efficiently and correctly.
WITH AXXES WE HAVE AN EXCELLENT PARTNER FOR OUR NEED OF QUALIFIED CONSULTANTS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF AUTOMATION PROJECTS AND CLOUD SERVICES.
The consultants mainly use Microsoft technology for these automation projects. In this case, it is Orchestrator, a module from the Microsoft System Center Suite, a software package with ready-to-use functions for, among other things, automating IT infrastructure. "With Orchestrator, you can automate IT activities and improve operational efficiency. In this way, the customer saves considerably and professionalises his IT environment."
CLOUD SERVICES FOR SMEs AND ISVs
Axxes is also helping Aspex to develop new cloud services for businesses. Aspex offers an automated way to switch from an on-site environment to the public cloud of Microsoft Office 365. Aspex ensures its customers a carefree transition to the new environment and also provides technical support around the clock.
"We help ISVs to offer their software packages in the cloud 'as-a-service'. The Axxes consultants assist us in offering managed services on Microsoft Azure or IBM SoftLayer, i.e. public cloud servers. They also manage ISVs' private cloud infrastructure and help them develop custom applications. For this purpose Axxes provides .NET consultants who take care of the software development," says Van Broekhoven.
RESULT: HIGH QUALITY, WITHIN TIME AND BUDGET
With Axxes we have an excellent partner for our staffing, automation projects and cloud services. The Axxes consultants are proactive, have thorough IT knowledge and fit perfectly within our organisation. A successful partnership," concludes Tim Van Broekhoven.
