YOUR SERVER, OUR SERVICE
Whether you’re a start-up looking to keep your office compact, or a multinational trying to streamline internal operations, colocation of your business servers is an ideal option. Own your own servers, while storing them in a secure off-site UK location, and having them maintained at all times by our expert team.
Here’s a few ways our colocation services can benefit your business.
MAINTAINED OWNERSHIP
Whether you want to relocate your existing hardware or buy new units, colocation lets you maintain full ownership of your servers, with the benefit of 24/7 monitoring, maintenance and support from our expert team.
All the colocation servers we use are located right here in Scotland. Meaning you can rest assured that your data storage is fully compliant with GDPR and data sovereignty within the UK.
Unlike keeping your servers in-house, with colocation you have strength in numbers. With so much on the line that must be protected, shared data centres are one of the most secure environments from cyber criminals.
Server colocation allows you to benefit from a level of IT infrastructure and support as if you had your own in-house facility, without the footprint or heavy operational costs. Plus, scaling up never means looking for a new office.
Our colocation services range from a single server space in a data centre rack, to a multi-server sectioned-off (caged) area, right up to an entire suite of your own servers. We’re here to accommodate your colocation requirements.
COLLABORATIVE COLOCATION
Retain ownership of your servers, while storing them in world-class secure data centres, and having them monitored and maintained around the clock by an expert team.
Colocation is arguably one of the simplest and most efficient examples of a collaborative IT service. Here’s how colocation has streamlined IT infrastructure management for our clients.
We have worked with Consider IT for years. Their excellent service standards and innovative approach has made a significant difference to our business progression. They managed the IT infrastructure for our move to new much larger offices including telecoms. They liaise on legal software applications and have made sure they understand our business and ambitions. I would highly recommend.

Consider IT don't just help us with the day-to-day requests, but also work with us as IT partners to help find new solutions. To all intents and purposes, they're an extension of our own team.

Life with Consider IT in it is a much, much better life! We transferred our IT over to Consider IT at the same time as moving to a new office for our team of 45. The team at Consider IT were so easy to deal with; straightforward, decisive, upfront and friendly. They have been a massive breath of fresh air for our business. We have been plagued by IT and telephone issues for years but I now hear nothing from our team about IT headaches. This speaks volumes for the systems and processes Consider IT have put in place and for the level of service and support they offer.
Andrew Whitmey, Managing Director, Umega Lettings
Consider IT are part of the glue that helps our business run successfully. No longer do we have terrifying nightmares about servers falling over, security breaches and equipment going belly-up. The team at Consider IT give us peace of mind, they are one step ahead of everything, ensuring they are eradicating issues before they happen. Ultimately this leave the team at LEWIS to get on and focus on their roles instead of staring at IT equipment and swearing under their tongues.
