Feedback• “CUI guidance was very specific on what we actually
needed to do”• “The step-by-step guidance was very clear and saved
us time”
“CUI – sadly the best kept secret in the NHS, the one place to get new information and support for mission critical Microsoft infrastructure. It gives you the information you need to exploit the NHS Enterprise Agreements, allowing you to deliver exceptional value for money, with full benefits realisation.
We now deploy all our MS systems using CUI guidance – it save us time and effort, with a definitive guide for less experienced staff, allowing us to leverage our scarce resources to where they are sorely needed.”
Adrian Purcell - Head of IT Services, Humber Mental Health Teaching Trust
“The GPO documentation was specific to the size and scale of an NHS Trust. In the past, consultants’ recommendations have been too generic and more relevant to large commercial organisations. This has saved us an awful lot of time and been beneficial in bringing new ideas into the Trust.
The IT team were expecting a long-winded document, but the reality was a much more practical, hands-on experience. It has really helped set the wheels moving and helped speed up usage of GPO.”
Damian Lewsley – ICT Systems Manager, King’s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust
“We knew we would benefit from User State Migration, but didn’t have the time to read all the documents. The NHS CUI documentation was more focused: Bang! Here’s what it is! Here’s what it does! Here’s how you can use it! We went through the NHS CUI documentation step by step and it focuses on what I need to do, avoiding the exotic usage scenarios. It would have taken considerably longer to come up with the solution from scratch without any NHS CUI materials.”
