Well, its taken just a little longer than I thought it would to be honest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After registering redIT Hosting Limited in January 2022 and thinking I would get everything all setup in a week or two, here we are nearly a whole 8 months later and our first customer invoice has just gone out the door (well Inbox anyway).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why the long wait I hear you ask.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Well, after I got all the paperwork sorted and new bank accounts (that a different story) I just happened to have a request from an existing customer to upgrade their account. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Perfect my brain thinks, lets move you over to the new company at the same time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
So that what we did.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A new firewall, new network and our new in-house written customer billing\/management platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yes, you heard it right. Our new billing platform is finally live!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
OK, its not as fully feature packed as I had planned. However, it looks great gives the details need and has just done the first invoice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The next step now is to keep it running like this for a while and make any improvements that we find and then move on to another product and then move those customers over to redIT Hosting Limited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Of course, all of this will be a soft and slow process, but it feels so good to finally have what I thought was such a simple idea come to life, and trust me when I say that just getting the first product sorted turned into a mammoth project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
