Testimonials
Nick Laflin, Betfair's Utility Computing Programme Manager, Betfair “Frankly we are quite a difficult company to work for as we want everything yesterday. ControlCircle has been particularly accommodating, got us the datacentre space quickly and we've been very impressed with their level of detail and quality of work in terms of installation.”

“When we decided to move our datacentre from the United Kingdom to Sweden, we knew the move itself was going to be the main challenge, therefore, it was extremely important to find the right company for the job. We considered several companies and chose ControlCircle due to their level of experience and competitive pricing. I'm happy to say they didn't disappoint in any respect. From start to finish, the ControlCircle staff we worked with were extremely responsive, helpful and efficient. Everything - from disassembling our datacentre at the old site, to transferring the equipment and re-assembling on the new site, was done on schedule and with the best possible result.
Should we have any upcoming datacentre requirements, I would be sure to call on ControlCircle again."
Richard Einsiedl, Director of IT, DeviceAnywhere
“Over the years I have worked in and around data centers as both a provider and a customer, in both collocation and managed services models, and I have experienced the worst of the worst and the best of the best. The service I have received from ControlCircle has been superb and ranks amongst the best. I am very comfortable assigning critical project tasks to ControlCircle, as they have proven to me that I can rely on the work to be completed correctly and within required timelines. ControlCircle definitely adds value to our business.”
Simon Gibbs, Managing Director, eplatform
"eplatforms provides bespoke Internet and e-commerce solutions to variety of clients globally. We operate and own our own hosting infrastructure and partnered with ControlCircle to provide a far more resilient network. From the outset the ControlCircle team put together a clear and easy to understand migration plan. Working together with us, they ensured a seamless move to their new data centre suite and the outcome was a resounding success!"
George Boobyer, IT Director, easyodds

In addition to the provision of clean stable power and cooling, they provide us with connectivity to the internet, NOC services and a range of called off professional services and advice. Services provided by ControlCircle have been consistently suitable to our needs. We have always found them very responsive and highly capable. We chose ControlCircle from a range of suppliers specifically for their flexible and accommodating range of services. They have provided a very responsive and professional yet personal service during critical periods and will prove to be invaluable in supporting our growing needs."
Mike Jones, Head of IT and operations, Exec-Appointments
"The reliability and failover capability of the Control Circle “dark fibre” network is seen as a key factor in the speed and performance of connectivity between our sites and the foundation of our Disaster Recovery strategy. ControlCircle was the only supplier capable of providing a service that ties in 7 tier-1 IP providers combined with access to highly skilled individuals 24 x 7.”
Mark Loos, Director, Inquira
“I was abroad on business and required a resilient, rapid set-up that I could trust. I had already been in touch with various other datacentre providers but it was ControlCircle's depth of experience and targeted solution that convinced me. ControlCircle met and exceeded my hosting and connectivity requirements. Inquira's set-up in Interxion was completed in an impressive two and a half weeks with zero downtime. Their datacentres are always kept in excellent condition and the support from sales to technical is always accessible and well informed. In sum, ControlCircle's response was fast - the results were stellar. I would recommend ControlCircle to any firm with datacentre requirements.”
Stephen Gallagher, partner, data analytics KPMG Forensic Technology"We needed a partner who is easy to work with and flexible as our business is very reactive - speed is normally of the essence as projects are one off and short term where a client will engage with us for a specific job. ControlCircle's approach supports this.
This is the first time we've worked with an outside partner in forensics as we simply didn't have the resources in-house to expand the operation as fast as we wanted."
Henry Morland, Technical Director, Liv-ex"Liv-ex offers an electronic marketplace for merchants trading fine wine. ControlCircle hosts and supports the online trading exchange software and the world’s most comprehensive database of fine wine market information. Access to this data is offered to non-professionals with Cellar Watch subscriptions. Liv-ex also publish the Liv-ex 100 Fine Wine benchmark index. Liv-ex.com was included in the 2007 Sunday Times Fast Track 100 list of the fastest growing companies in the UK, so we are hoping that ControlCircle will be able to continue to support us as we continue to grow."
Andy Skipper, CTO, Moveme
"Being one of the UKs most visited web sites, we were searching for a company that would be available 24/7/365. We chose ControlCircle to supply us with connectivity as they were able to meet our very high service level requirements."
Joshua Noll, CEO, Revelation Networks International“As providers of IP Transit, Colocation and Data Networking Solutions, Rev Net’s standards need to meet and exceed client’s expectations. It’s essential that the companies we work with live up to our own high standards. ControlCircle is one of these select group of providers who lead in their industry.
Our requirement was for a hosting and connectivity solution. As is often the case, our time frame was limited and the result had to be infallible. ControlCircle completed our project on time, delivering the desired result. Moreover, it was ControlCircle’s knowledgeable team along with their dedicated level of service that we remain particularly impressed with.
We thrive on working with those who are as passionate about their business as we are about our own - we look forward to calling on ControlCircle in the near future.”
Luke West, Infrastructure Manager, Rightmove
“After seventeen years of running datacentres in many countries for many companies, it is hugely reassuring to come to a company like ControlCircle who understand the requirements and the standards needed to make this complex environment work properly. They can help Rightmove deliver the highest quality of service to its customers. I would recommend talking to them if you have such a requirement!"
David Abbott, Operations Manager
"ControlCircle supply a highly resilient internet connection to one of our key production facilities. We have been very impressed with their service delivery, including management of maintenance windows and any communication related to technical updates and will certainly be looking to use them again for any future projects!"
Andrew Phillips, Head of Systems, Tradefair
“ControlCircle offer value for money, have an impressive client base who have similar requirements to us in terms of uptime and have taken the time to assemble a team who really know what they're doing from a datacentre services perspective. We'd be silly not to take advantage of it. ControlCircle understood the standards and degree of perfection I expect in terms of process and documentation yet have been flexible and quick to respond to changing scope. This is often mutually exclusive. Either suppliers are good at process, but not particularly flexible, or adaptable but poor on detail. Our experience with ControlCircle is they're both.”
