In December 2007 it was clear that mobile banking was going to take off. At the forefront of the revolution Rodney Aiglstorfer, and Drew Sievers of MFoundry were implementing their product for CitiBank. The team members at the helm of their IT where clearly not going to lead the company through the explosive growth coming: Sarbannes-Oxley, PCI compliance, 3 factor authentication, managing outsourced hosting, almost doubling of the staff, and more. This is when MFoundry called X2 to handle it all.

On a day to day basis our SOS offering ensures that new users get their laptops, email accounts and other tools set up – even if its five or more new users in the same week! On a Project basis we have helped change the product to allow for even greater levels of scalability and with even simpler support needs. We have made better use of their existing hardware by consolidating services and leveraging virtualization technologies for staging and development environments. We have organized their data closet, added power conditioning and UPS backup, and even helped close out an outsourced facility and move to banking industry standard managed services – without missing a beat.

How can X2 help you lower your IT costs, minimize complexity, rethink your systems and manage a mobile workforce?
