NetApp is a leader in enterprise storage and data management across the data centre and the cloud. We help clients get the most from it.
Official NetApp partner, and an independent adviser
NetApp pairs its ONTAP software, AFF and FAS arrays and BlueXP data services to give organisations a consistent way to store, protect and move data across the data centre and the major clouds.
Storage is in our DNA, our founders came from the top tier of the storage industry. We partner with NetApp because its data management is genuinely strong, particularly for hybrid and multicloud estates, and we help clients choose, migrate and run it without the usual surprises.
NetApp is at its strongest where data management is the hard part. ONTAP gives you genuinely deep data services, snapshots, replication, tiering and unified file and block, and its hybrid and multicloud story, through BlueXP and the native cloud integrations, is among the best in the market for estates that span the data centre and more than one cloud. Where it is less obviously the answer is the simpler end: if you want a platform you barely have to think about, or a pure performance play, another array may suit you better, and ONTAP rewards the team that learns it. We give you the honest read. As an official NetApp partner we can assess your estate, right size what you actually need, negotiate the deal, run the migration and support it afterwards. As an independent adviser, we will tell you when NetApp is the wrong fit and point you to what is not.
Yes. C4C Group is an official NetApp partner, so we can source, implement and support NetApp for you, not only advise on it. The partnership is genuine and active, which means you get one accountable team for the technology and the commercials.
Yes, and the two work together. We hold official partnerships across many vendors rather than being tied to one, so we recommend what genuinely fits your needs and tell you honestly when NetApp is not the right answer. Our independence is in the recommendation, our partnership is in the delivery and support.
No. We partner with technologies we have tested and trust, but we stay vendor neutral. If something outside our partnerships is the better fit for you, we will say so. A C4C recommendation is based on your needs and your numbers, not on a quota.
It comes down to what you value. NetApp leads on data management depth and hybrid and multicloud flexibility, particularly through ONTAP and BlueXP. Pure tends to win on simplicity and a clean upgrade experience, and Dell on portfolio breadth. The right choice depends on your workloads, your cloud strategy and your team, which is exactly what we assess before recommending one. We have no reason to steer you to NetApp if another platform genuinely fits you better.
Yes, and it is one of its real strengths. ONTAP runs consistently on premises and in the major clouds, and BlueXP gives you one way to move, protect and govern data across all of them. That said, consistency is only worth paying for if you genuinely operate that way. We help you work out whether a unified data fabric earns its cost for your estate, or whether a simpler arrangement would serve you just as well.
We will give you an independent, vendor neutral view on whether it fits, and help you buy and run it well. No quota, no preferred vendor.
