Case Study for Deverell Smith
REAL ESTATE INDUSTRYCompany Overview
Deverell Smith provides a one-stop talent and strategic consultancy service for the property and real estate industry in the UK and around the globe
We have worked closely in the past with Deverell Smith to ensure their business is kept up to date with the latest technologies and successfully helped them migrate their email service to Office 365
MOVE FROM INTERNAL SERVERSThe Problem
Deverell Smith came to Wizard wanting to embrace the cloud, move away from their dated internal servers, and reduce their infrastructure costs and maintenance burden
With this change, they wanted to give their employees the ability to work from any location to allow flexible working whether that be on-site (hot desking) or from their home (remote working)
Handling sensitive data on a daily basis they needed a solution that would protect their data, cohere to GDPR requirements, and be easy to maintain and manage
Being a fast-growing business they needed the ability to scale up their infrastructure as the business grows without the headache of buying and configuring more hardware in-house
HOW WIZARD CLOUD HELPEDThe Solution
Virtual Desktops – Windows Azure Virtual Desktops
We deployed and configured Windows Azure Virtual Desktop across all their workstations, this provided their employees with the best virtualised experience and is the only solution that is fully optimised for Windows 10 and Office 365
Azure makes it incredibly easy to deploy and manage the company’s infrastructure, taking only minutes to scale up or down, based on business demand
We were able to reconfigure existing thin clients to work with Azure services, this meant that no new client devices were required to be purchased, which reduced the project cost
Virtual Profile
With Azure, we were able to setup and configure all their user profiles to the cloud allowing users to log in from any workstation whether that be on-site or remote
Migration to Azure
To make this project work we migrated all their existing data from their in-house servers to the cloud. Having their data hosted in the cloud with Azure meant we could easily set up a robust disaster recovery plan utilising Azure backups

- We managed to cut their costs by reducing the requirement for physical servers and the onsite server maintenance
- Eliminated dependencies on building infrastructure
