BePart Trust, Phase One
When BePart Trust took over The Birkenhead Park School, it took over a network generating up to 200 support tickets a week. Here's how their IT team ended up with a network they could actually run.
When BePart Trust took on The Birkenhead Park School, it had over 70 VLANs (the separate network segments that had built up over years), legacy hardware, poor wireless and no failover. The day-to-day cost was up to 200 support tickets a week and constant disruption to teaching.
Keep reading to find out how Netprotocol and Extreme Networks helped them to stabilise it.
What a fragmented, unmanaged network actually costs a school day. 70+ VLANs, ageing kit, no resilience and an IT team constantly firefighting.
How the environment was standardised on Extreme, with resilience designed in and a single clear view of the network. No disruptive rip-and-replace.
From up to 200 tickets a week to minimal. Predictable annual costs through ENS (Extreme's subscription model for the wireless). An empowered team that can run its own network.

“Netprotocol is the best relationship I've ever had with a supplier. The network is built to be best in class, so I know it's just going to work. My team isn't firefighting, teachers can teach and students can learn without disruption."
John Paul Szkudlapski, Director of IT, BePart Trust
