Craig Brock , Co-founder and Chief Operating Officer , HomeMaster
“ This innovation was instigated by Host-IT initially as a test solution free of charge to help us maximise the user experience for our clients and is a testament to the high level of on-going service we receive ,” said Brock . “ The impressive customer tours of its data centre , which our clients have taken advantage of , is a further example . These play a huge part in satisfying our clients ’ on-going requirements and concerns regarding data sovereignty and ensuring their compliance with GDPR and Cyber Essentials Plus .”
Business benefits
As a SaaS platform , HomeMaster means clients can avoid using an in-house server with the associated resource overheads . Furthermore , there is no upfront capital expenditure due to the annual pricing structure . Today , HomeMaster allows
55 community housing providers , each responsible for thousands of properties , to work more efficiently and scale as necessary as their requirements change . With growing demand for its flexible subscriptionbased solution , the business now employs over 20 people and is currently looking to recruit further .
Brock concluded : “ HomeMaster is now firmly established as an industry leading housing and finance platform . One that uses state-of-the-art development technologies to remain futureproof and continue to meet the ever-evolving needs of housing providers . With Host-IT ’ s first class infrastructure and support , we can assure our clients a scalable and resilient low latency SaaS solution while also benefitting from on-going access to its high-quality 24 / 7 engineering services . The added peace of mind this gives us is immeasurable .” �
