Nandana Villa

Grand Bahama Island, Bahamas

24×7 visibility, control and support

We were chosen to provide a comprehensive Managed IT solution for a luxury resort in the Bahamas which has been featured by Forbes Magazine, The Robb Report and dozens of other publications. This property relies on its data network, both wired and wireless for home automation, security, audio/video, internet access and telephones. Network downtime is not an option for the resorts or their guests.

Design a robust and secure hardware, monitoring and support solution
Monitor redundant internet providers and ensure automatic failover
Wireless network stability with seamless roaming throughout the property
Self healing and optimizing, mesh WiFi networking for areas of the resorts without ethernet cabling
Automatic device configuration backup
VoIP telephones with zero call quality issues
24 x 7 monitoring and problem resolution
Hardware that can stand up to the harsh elements of the Caribbean (salt, water and extreme wind), with a lifetime warranty.
Ensure network security and data isolation between various virtual networks

Given the requirement of 100% visibility into the entire data and voice network, we chose Cisco Meraki as the management and hardware platform. Meraki’s cloud based, unified platform offers us a single pane of glass to see all traffic on the network, both internal and external.
Combining Meraki with Diligex’s Managed IT platform and our 24x7x365 service desk provides the property manager with immediate assistance should the need arise. More often than not, our system identifies issues before they impact the property.
Diligex and Cisco Meraki automatically backup device configurations and provide advanced hardware replacement. This allows for rapid service restoration in the event of a hardware failure
