In 2023, IT and Digital Transformation Manager, Sam O’Dell was looking for an alternative to Excitech Mail.

“We were having a lot of issues with the product and knew that alternative software had the same problems”.

One of the key issues was that each PC had to create its own search index and this was hammering SharePoint, which responded by throttling services to the users.

“The throttling was the main problem, but there were other issues and whilst updates were provided, each one introduced more problems, so we lost faith in the product.”

CloudFiler solved the problem because it has one central index of the data in the cloud.

“When I saw the CloudFiler web site and understood how it works I knew immediately that it would solve our problem.”

“Whilst our SharePoint throttling issue was immediately solved by adopting CloudFiler, there were some niggling things in the early days, but the Dinamich team were incredibly quick to resolve them and took onboard our suggestions too; in most instances our ideas were implemented within a few days.”

Sam particularly values the support he received.

“When things go wrong or you just need some guidance, it’s almost always urgent and one needs to be able to contact knowledgeable people and get a solution ASAP. Dinamich have been excellent in this respect, and we couldn’t have hoped for a better service. That’s not to say that the software needs much support as it doesn’t, but in the first few weeks when we were finding our way, there were times when we needed help.”

“We have no reservations in recommending it.”
