In honor of national “Get to Know Your Customers Day,” 11:11 Systems celebrates its many amazing customers and their stories.
At 11:11 Systems we understand this simple truth:, our customers are the reason we do all the things we do, and they are reason we are constantly looking for ways to do them better.
On the third Thursday of every quarter, businesses around the world take a moment to celebrate their customers with “Get to Know Your Customers Day.” Thursday January 18th is our chance this quarter to celebrate our customers.
All of us in the technology world know the last few years have been full of opportunities, challenges and a little bit of everything in between. Developing and building long-term business relationships always make sense, even more so when you are not sure which way the wind is going to blow.
Celebrating Get to Know Your Customers Day is a chance for us at 11:11 to show how building strong relationships with our customers is what makes us, well us.
Getting to Know Our Customers, We Are in This Together
As a managed infrastructure provider 11:11 Systems cloud, connectivity, and security solutions are built to meet the challenges of our customers. By innovating around those three core pillars, our goal is to empower customers to “Rethink Connected.” Our goal for our customer is their applications and data are always running, accessible, and protected.
As we talk to our customers, we know that it is sometimes easier said than done. Digital transformation and cloud adoption continue to drive business growth, but adopting new technologies has an impact — both big and small. Disasters, natural and man-made, have attempted to derail data and applications alike.
Our customers face these challenges as part of the regular course of doing business, and they have made it clear they place a premium on having a business relationship that goes beyond just meeting a service-level agreement (SLA). As we celebrate our customers this quarter, we want to share some examples that highlight the value of a strong customer relationship. To read any and all of our customer stories, check out the entire catalog in the 11:11 Resource Center. (It may take while. There are a lot of great articles there!)
Our customers tell their stories best, and in their own words. Here are a few highlights as we celebrate Get to Know Your Customers Day with these and all our special customers!
“Our primary goal was to find a vendor that was going to support us — not just sell us a product, cash their check, and walk away. From my perspective, it was all about finding that kind of true partner. And I believe that’s what we have in 11:11. Having that type of relationship with a vendor doesn’t mean you don’t have great folks in-house. It means putting those great folks in the best position to succeed. That requires a lot of trust, but 11:11 has certainly earned that with us.” – Greg Vaughn, Infrastructure & Engineering Manager, Rivermark
“It’s refreshing to work with a provider that feels big enough to warrant your confidence, but also small enough to where you can really talk and develop a professional relationship. From our initial sales conversations to on-boarding and implementation to customer support and costs, 11:11 Systems has delivered the total package in terms of value. That’s why I’m so comfortable giving them my endorsement.” – Jim Lewey, IT Systems Engineer, Superior Court of Mono County
“First and foremost, we wanted to make sure that our data was somewhere safe and far away. Being so close to the ocean, we wanted to ensure that, even if the worst were to happen, even if city hall got washed away by a tidal wave, our data would remain secure and available.” – Neil O’Connor, IT Operations and Engineering Supervisor, City of Encinitas, CA
“Partnering with 11:11 Systems for disaster recovery allowed us to accomplish everything we set out to do. The capability and simplicity of its solution has certainly met and exceeded our expectations so far. My team has been very pleased, and they’re a bunch of skeptics. In the IT world, you’re constantly bombarded by providers making all sorts of boastful claims and promises. So, when you run across an organization like 11:11, that actually follows through and lives up to the hype, it’s a joy.” – Rad Laney, CIO, AFS
“The entire 11:11 experience has been so positive. Their team was remarkably helpful and supportive throughout the entire implementation process, from hearing and understanding our requirements to getting the solutions deployed quickly. We evaluated other cloud service providers, but they simply couldn’t meet our needs for global availability and compliance. It’s clear that 11:11 is recognized as an industry leader for a reason.” – Dan Morgan, Global Head of Cloud & Infrastructure, Dr. Martens
