Tyneso and the Anticancer Fund: IT that is hassle-free, comfortable & always accessible

Company
Anticancer Fund

Anticancer Fund, crucial to cancer patients

A niche within cancer research: cancer medication and therapy studies, with little commercial value for the pharmaceutical sector and yet crucial to patients.

This is the core mission of the Anticancer Fund for cancer treatment research. With over 15 ongoing research projects such as drug re-purposing with aspirin and radiotherapy, the team is making a real difference. Thanks to private donations, the fund can finance promising clinical trials and help around 300 cancer patients with information about their disease and treatment via the My Cancer Navigator service. Tyneso supports this organisation and has provided their IT backbone for over 10 years.

THE REASONS TYNESO & THE ANTICANCER FUND MAKE FOR SUCH A GOOD MATCH

Coincidence, serendipity. That’s how it all began. Once upon a time, the Anticancer Fund shared a location with Tyneso. We soon established a mutually friendly rapport. As companies grow, their IT needs evolve along with them and it’s easier to work with an IT company you’ve already seen in action. When the time had come, the Anticancer Fund approached Tyneso. Their collaboration continued even after the two companies moved apart.

THE CHALLENGES

In an organisation full of scientists, having an IT specialist on payroll was never the plan. An external partner was the best solution. A partner who could modernise their entire IT infrastructure and help them migrate to the Cloud.

“Their services are extensive. From minor questions like ‘help, the printer’s not working’ and ‘uh-oh, phishing mails’ to larger issues and new operating procedures such as our migration to Cloud, Teams and SharePoint. The timing was perfect, just before the pandemic arrived. Everything was set up and ready to go.”

IMPLEMENTATION

The Anticancer Fund sought Tyneso out as a trusted partner to go fully digital.

Tyneso implemented:

  • Teams (incl. telephony)
  • SharePoint
  • Azure Cloud
  • Secure network & future-proof IT infrastructure
  • Help desk

And there’s more. “We want as much money as possible to go towards research, not superfluous operational matters, and Tyneso is aware of that,” Klara says. “Their IT experts pro-actively make plans together with us and advise us according to our daily needs. For example, implementing 2-step verification or the advice to use a new, cheaper internet provider. They take the initiative, make proposals and we make our preferences known. We don’t have to worry about afterwards either. They handle it all. If there’s a problem, we log a ticket and they call us with a solution shortly thereafter.”

Collaboration

Anticancer Fund: “Tyneso has supported us with our IT management since the very beginning, with best-in-class solutions adapted to our needs. As our organisation has grown, we’ve built a sustainable and trusting partnership, which gives us peace of mind. Our organisation focuses on cancer research, not IT, and Tyneso offers us the knowledge and insights we don’t have, allowing us to keep up with digital developments.

Tyneso pro-actively helps us to make our IT infrastructure future-proof. They migrated our on-premise servers to SaaS solutions in the Microsoft cloud, creating a serverless, full-cloud solution. Exactly what we needed. Tyneso’s consultants guided and instructed us on working with the Cloud, Teams and SharePoint. Now we can work from anywhere.

Colleagues abroad also have access to the proper documents. Accessibility, comfort and no hassle. Give us more of that in future, please, so that we can continue our focus on leveraging cancer research and helping more people.”
