Legal Firms
Cost effective, compliant, resilient. Oncore IT is the service provider others are judged by.
The legal profession today is in a state of flux. Deregulation in light of the Legal Services Act will drastically increase competition and liberalise the sector, the effects of which are being much debated – some talk of it as the equivalent to the City’s ‘big bang’ of 1986 which transformed the financial services market.
Combined with slower growth, the ongoing need to improve overall efficiency, embrace new methods of working, and the necessity to store and provide access securely to client information, practices big and small have much to grapple with and manage.
While not a panacea, technology can play a game-changing role in this ever-evolving commercial environment.
Oncore IT has a long track record of success working with solicitors and barristers to manage their IT infrastructure assets so that costs are controlled and high availability computing platforms are put in place which work faultlessly and meet the strictest of compliance regulations.
Our broad range of experience caters from the simplest solutions to the highest performing e-discovery and US military grade storage systems.
Hardwicke Buildings Chambers
has outsourced its infrastructure management and support to us. For a fixed fee, we monitor their systems 24/7/365, while providing online back up, email defence, remote access and virtual disaster recovery services. It means Hardwicke Buildings avoids the cost of employing additional technical people as its internal team of two IT staff can focus on strategic areas and escalate upwards to us when they require additional technical resource.
Fisher Meredith Solicitors
selected us to develop a new business continuity strategy comprising online data back up to transition away from an unreliable tape-based solution. We’ve provided a managed service including pay-to-grow storage which means data is encrypted, stored offsite and fast to replicate in response to any event.
29 Bedford Row Chambers
outsourced its entire IT infrastructure to us under a single fixed fee annual contract which simplifies apportioning charges to barrister members. We provide Internet connectivity, hardware, software upgrades, desktop support, monitoring and crucially an online data backup solution. This encrypts the chambers’ data and 100% guarantees the availability and security of all case, billing and time management information.
