Kitbag are one of the countries leading
online sports ecommerce retailers and a pioneer for
internet sales. Kitbag rely on Orchid to make sure they
have 100% uptime. Just one minute of disruption can
cost £1000’s and for the last 8 years Orchid
have kept them 100% fully functional. Orchid built Kitbag’s
network from the day Kitbag formed and have helped it
grow to support a £20 Million company. Orchid
also carried out a full system move to a data centre
in London from Nottingham during the 2006 World Cup
which was Kitbag’s busiest time since starting.
We did this with no disruption allowing Kitbag to continue
its normal internet trading.
Orchid supply Kitbag with HP for their servers, desktop
