Southern Enterprise Awards 2021

53 | Southern Enterprise Awards 2021 Sep21435 Best Web & Mobile Development Company - South Coast From initial concept through to completion, Solent Cloud Systems supports its customers in their web and mobile development for better ease of use and a more sustainable online future. Modern product development is reliant on customer feedback and the ability to listen as a company that wishes to make a difference. We talk to Founder Nick Horan about Solent Cloud Systems, its values, and what it offers to its extensive clientele. Founder Nick Horan tells us that “Solent Cloud Systems’ (SCS) core mission is to help companies modernise their technology platforms by enabling them to take full advantage of the power of the Cloud. This can just mean building and hosting a new website, followed by deploying that site to modern cloud hosting solutions.” SCS works with the customer to find out exactly what their needs are so that it can come up with a delivery plan and an efficient, cost-effective technology choice. For the launch of the customers’ products, SCS works relentlessly to create the best MVP. Its strong team of staff members have “a broad range of skills and over twenty years of experience in the tech industry, our services are extremely comprehensive,” explains Nick. “We can take care of monitoring our client’s online services, making sure they are available 24/7 with almost no downtime. We’re also skilled in Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) and digital marketing through advertising platforms like Google Ads.” The team is the backbone of the company, with its experience and excellent customer service that has carried it to victory in recently winning Best Web & Mobile Development Company - South Coast. As an outstanding part of its portfolio, Nick says, “We have recently been working with Reed Professional Services and the BBC, building a solution to help the BBC better understand the health of their online portfolio of sites, including News, Sport, Bitesize and CBBC.” By working with huge names such as these, SCS’s hard work is truly paying off as it shows the world that it can help both small and large companies to thrive. It isn’t just a web and mobile development company; SCS is a dedicated business that wants to make a difference to the way customers’ businesses operate. “In fact, we are currently working on our own Software-as-a-Service (SAAS) product in the realm of developer experience (DevX). This R&D project aims to delight development teams by simplifying and streamlining some often-complex software engineering processes,” Nick shares. Throughout the pandemic, companies everywhere have faced all sorts of difficulties and, as Nick tells us, “COVID-19 has accelerated technology roadmaps for many companies and the move to remote and hybrid working models will require greater investments in technology.” With this in mind, SCS sees the web skill shortage and wants to bridge the gap so that its customers can operate smoothly. Finally, Nick concludes, “We’re very excited about the future and our plans for 2022. Alongside supporting our existing clients, we look forward to welcoming new clients and working together to build our respective businesses. We also have a couple of really interesting projects kicking off, one of which relates to the world of digital collectibles and NFTs.” This excellent development and growth are something that SCS has worked very hard for. Its customer focused and highly advanced technology makes sure to benefit all kinds of businesses for a more stable and secure future.
