Cbc Informatique

CBC has a radically different approach to business IT services: "We aim to be our client's IT department " says Olivier Santarini, sales manager. Our team of 50 specialists takes care of 100% of an SME's IT needs and offers consultancy, training, installation,  security,  data storage,  repair and development services.

A "Made In Luxembourg" Solution

By offering its customers Luxembourg solutions, CBC is breaking with established protocols by guaranteeing customised national solutions. "Whether we're considering repair, data storage, server or cloud hosting, the logistics and the means used will always favour Luxembourg infrastructure. The cloud must always remain under control...", says Santarini.

At CBC, everything is based on the proximity and the quality of the services, with a focus on short loops and continuous training to ensure its clients get the best advice and services. The company has chosen to officially represent partners such as HP and to assume the guaranties under the same terms as the manufacturer, so repairs are done in its Bascharage workshops.

CBC and IT Security

CBC carries out risk analyses and implements security strategies, such as WatchGuard firewalls. The company has the highest partnership certification: WatchGuard Gold Partner.

The hyper-connectivity we know today can quickly become a major source of problems for those who do not pay it enough attention; CBC's role is to ensure that its clients always have up-to-date information and to provide them with protection services to fit their infrastructure.

CBC and the Cloud

While the cloud simplifies some aspects of IT, it complicates many others. Indeed, if all clients had the same needs, it would be easy, but, in practice, evaluation and sizing become essential to making the right choices. Cloud, yes, but controlled and customised.

CBC and data storage

There are many offering this service; all the web's major players, such as Apple, Google, Amazon etc, offer online storage spaces.

At first glance, the data stored in the cloud is replicated over several computer servers, connected to multiple power supplies, and yet all providers still protect themselves by disclaiming any liability for data loss...

Rather than the security of the servers, it is their geographic location that can be worrying. At CBC, as explained earlier, the servers are not simply secure, but they have all the redundancy needed, and are housed in monitored physical locations that meet the strictest criteria while also maintaining control over their data.

In conclusion, while the IT services market is large, it is not necessarily well-suited to the expectations of Luxembourg companies. Large groups are not flexible enough to offer solutions to the country's large, medium and small structures; for the past 26 years, CBC has been fortunate enough to meet this challenge.
