Managed cloud services focused on mission-critical objectives
Many organizations partner with managed cloud service providers to reduce hardware costs and focus their IT energies on core business objectives.
By implementing public and private cloud architectures, organizations gain considerable advantages by tailoring their environments to critical applications and workloads to be cloud native. The best way to go about this transition is to partner with leaders in the field. While selecting a top cloud platform is essential, aligning with a leading technology management team is crucial.

Case studies
Unilever Federal Credit Union is a full-service, single-sponsor, non-profit financial institution. The credit union is owned by its members and has a member-elected board of directors. For over 70 years, Unilever FCU has provided financial services to its members and continues to grow in assets and services.
Problem
With their talented but often overtaxed IT staff, Unilever FCU needed an alternative option to deploy and maintain secure network infrastructure, high availability production environment, and data protection for backup and disaster recovery.
CBTS solution

Outcome
Unilever FCU is well positioned for continued growth. They leveraged a due diligence framework and all the supporting documentation as the foundation for addressing credit union compliance and regulatory standards.
“With CBTS, the attention to detail really stood out to us,” said Jim Kopfensteiner, CEO of Unilever FCU. “They were able to advise us on many topics, from real-time input during auditor exams to IT information security policies.”
