NetSupport Continues To Deliver Business Continuity Services For Interflora  NetSupport is delighted to announce that it will continue to provide Interflora with business continuity and workplace recovery services following a twelve month extension to their partnership.
Headquartered in Sleaford, South Lincolnshire, the world’s largest and most popular flower delivery network recognises that having a disaster recovery plan is a key business objective to ensure continuity of service for its customers.
The company operates three main sales channels: at Interflora florists, through a contact centre, or via the internet. Whichever channel is used, orders are transacted through a central order processing system. System reliability and scalability is therefore critical, especially during the key periods of Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day and Christmas, when a substantial number of transactions are processed per day.
Following an initial internal review of its business continuity requirements, Interflora decided that optimum cover would be achieved by partnering with a company that would be able to offer replication of its application data in a secure data centre environment, together with workplace recovery facilities so that key staff could easily transfer at a moment’s notice in the event of an unforeseen event affecting customer service.
Interflora invited proposals from a number of national and local vendors before selecting NetSupport’s state-of-the-art data centre and recovery facilities.
