''In 2016, we decided to outsource our IT infrastructure to Proximus NXT' data centers. In a second step, the entire management of this infrastructure was entrusted to our partner. Today, a large part of our business activity is managed by Proximus NXT as managed services, from the support center to the management of our servers and databases.
The mobility management solution recommended by Proximus NXT was demonstrated in real time to the Red Cross management. This opportunity to " finger" our future work environment has greatly contributed to convincing us that we are making the right choice, both from a technological point of view and in terms of understanding our needs.''
