Before starting A BIT of IT, Ben Chapman was completely responsible for all aspects of I.T. for a $100M company with over 100 staff in 7 locations, his third such position. In his most recent role, all core infrastructure was completely re-designed to a High Availabilty VMWare virtualised platform running 13 virtual servers and 5 physical servers (in the remote offices). Internet access was upgraded to a fully redundant 30mbps fibre and ADSL2+ system with no downtime from the cut over from the old ISP. Blackberry enterprise server for 40 users was migrated smoothly with little downtime. Extensive comparisons of telephony usage halved phone and internet spend. The company intranet was completely re-developed in Joomla and two public websites were built in WordPress. He has had extensive experience with Cisco and Juniper networking equipment. Most of the businesses he has been responsible for ran Dell, IBM and HP Windows servers. Email systems include MS Exchange and MDaemon, databases include MS SQL Server (admin and development) and MySQL, web development in ASP, Joomla and WordPress (PHP, CSS), IP telephony, SSL VPN, and much more.

We cover more than enough for most businesses in our target market.
