Varberg local authority – Qondoc gives a clear picture of our IT environment

“We connected Qondoc to our helpdesk, and it immediately became a very important support tool. When a problem arises, the support immediately sees which unit is failing and where it is located.” Interview with Elisabeth Röjgren, who is an IT technician in an organisation with more than 100 servers and 3 000 personal computers.

From documentation tool to support tool

”We purchased Qondoc to gain an overview of our network handling,” says Elisabeth Röjgren. “We wanted to see how the switches were connected and the computers were configured, but we found Qondoc more useful than we had anticipated. We connected Qondoc to our helpdesk, and it immediately became a very important support tool. When a problem arises, the support immediately sees which unit is failing and where it is located. We also see the unit’s support history and can provide the server team with exact information,” says Elisabeth. “Before, printed manuals always lay by each printer. This no longer happens, and it was a growing problem, but the service engineers now reach Qondoc via all local authority computers, and we can enter all manuals there. Easy and practical.”

Values the advanced search

Elisabeth values the advanced search. Whatever it is they want to know, they receive a “response in no time, just have to press a couple of keys”. Elisabeth clarifies that “If we are to upgrade all computers to 250 MB RAM memory, we can easily find out which computers don’t have that, and tell the server team. I also value the fact that you can limit the search to a geographical area. I see the exact building and the room in which a computer is located. This saves you a lot of time.”

Qondoc has rapid support and a very aware organisation

“I want to praise Qondoc highly for their service sense. They have always been very helpful to me, and this is the way in which they really differ from other companies. If they see a problem anywhere, they remedy it really quickly. I’m delighted.”

Varberg local authority lies on the west coast, 76 km south of Gothenburg, and has around 55 000 inhabitants.

“Qondoc gives me an overview of the whole system. If we were to close down server 12 at nine o’clock next Monday, for example, I would then see which system owners were affected and could contact them. If I want to know how many servers are running Windows 2000, I get the answer in 20 seconds. Before, I had to call all system owners and ask them personally.” Interview with Roland Lindblad, who is the manager of the operations and technology group and is responsible for 120 servers and 1 400 personal computers at 160 offices.
