London based migration specialists Parative were pleased to launch their new look web site today.
After a successful update for 2010 on their branding strategy Parative have completed their new web site and print materials to announce their exciting range of services for the new year.
Many updates will be quick to follow as we push our new consultancy services on IT Strategy for CIOs and CTOs. This new service is designed for decision makers to talk about their 3 year IT strategies and where they want to go, rather than around any specific technology.
We spoke to a range of CIOs recently to discuss the concept and after very positive feedback we look forward to launching the new service soon.
Thanks,
Tim Eichmann (CIO)

January 2010: Parative has beaten some of the UK’s largest systems integrators in a competitive bid for an international Notes to Exchange migration with a London based law firm.
Parative presented a compelling bid based on a migration from IBM Lotus Notes to recently released Microsoft Exchange 2010.
Using their extensive experience, and presenting recent large clients such as the Daily Mail Group Trust (Associated & Northcliff Media division), Parative talked their client through their migration process they have developed over the years based on PRINCE2. Parative discussed with their client all of the issues that occur at critical stages of the migration and how they are able to effectively neutralise or reduce the risks to the live user base and infrastructure.
In the end, Parative’s depth of experience in Notes migrations, as well as how they manage infrastructure change from their experience in performing over 200 migrations was one of their key differentiator from the other competitors.
“Unlike other systems integrators we specialise in migration” stated CEO Lloyd Carnie, “This means our consultants perform more migrations in one year than most consultants will perform in their career. This means we’ve seen more issues from each client’s unique environment, so we can look for and mitigate these problems with our next client. Good project management and lessons learnt is how a company and their consultants grow. We’ve performed over 200 migrations to date, for clients as large as 150,000 users, so out of all of the companies saying they do migration it’s safe to say we can steer our clients along the safest course for their migration.”
