IT Contractors/IT Service Providers in Perth, Australia
-
Hi folks,
Would anybody be able to recommend IT Contractors/ITSP in Perth, Australia? Ideally ones you have worked with, which you know are good at their job.
We have a new office out there (acquisition) and the current providers we are using are making a mess of things, so may be looking to move to some other solution if they don't sort this out soon. They supported the company we purchased already so we initially decided to use them due to the existing good relationship and are starting to regret that.
What we need (overview only, and new hardware already on site):
-
stack + configure two Dell N3000 switches
-
configure Cisco ASA for existing internet line outbound, and internal interface, plus SSH for management, and ASDM
-
physically migrate from old firewall to new, and old switches to new over a weekend (new properly managed cabling)
-
configure new Dell server with datacenter 2019 core and Hyper-V enabled, setup redundant 10GB uplinks to new switch stack. Provide access over that weekend once completed for UK team to roll out DC, DNS, DHCP
-
configure APC UPS for PowerChute network shutdown to turn off the host upon power outage
-
connect two meraki MR33 to n3000
-
label everything, document, and supply photos for our remote support teams
Do you know any resources out there which could accomplish this? We would of course discuss specifics that's just an overview.
Some of the issues we have with the current supplier:
-
can't get the new ASA to work with the internet line. Can't figure out how to enable SSH on the ASA
-
have installed 2019 datacenter GUI, not core. Did not enable hyper-v
-
have not been able to stack the switches, have not been able to enable remote access to switches (webui/SSH/telnet)
Basically, little confidence left.
Cheers

Keep in mind today was the go live for the switch over and only now have they spoken up about these problems. Way too late. Until now all we have had is the project is going to plan and they have configured correctly and are ready for the switch.
I got access to the new server via the old network earlier today and then found all these issues.

I'm localish, so if you want to name and shame via DM, please do.
Always looking to keep a tab on the available resources.I've had direct dealings with the following:
- Netlink Group
- Silverfern
- Datacom
Not sure that I'd recommend Silverfern
Netlink were decent
Datacom have been on a massive expansion innto WA of late.
-In my limited dealings with them, they've been very professional and knew what they were talking about.Haven't had many dealings with others.

Cheers, if no improvement I'll take a look at some of those. -
Also, while I think of it, Comscenter is also worth a look at
