The 'total' solution to be implemented provides M P Moran & Sons Ltd. with the required levels of resilience, reliability and resources required to assist in its ongoing growth."

Kevin Moran, Director of M P Moran & Sons Ltd commented:

"Whilst we have substantial experience of cloud delivered services, we decided to review our current cloud solution to ensure we are receiving the full business benefits that this technology can offer. With this key objective in mind, the specialist service offered by Netplan stood head and shoulders above all the other providers. I am sure Netplan's value proposition and industry knowledge will provide the scope, flexibility and assurance that we as a company require and trust."

Chris Evans, Chief Executive commented:

We are hearing that message loud and clear from both prospective and existing customers".
