Hydra is a niche Systems Integrator specialising in bringing the latest and greatest technologies to the City. We have been the first UK partner of an
impressive list of technology vendors, including ArrowPoint, Blue Coat, DataPower, Expand, Neoteris, NetScreen, Niksun and Top Layer.
Hydra's customers include blue-chip City financial institutions, major media houses and professional services and consulting firms, who value our
ability to select and evaluate relevant technologies, based on years of City experience and at the sharp end of the ever-evolving IT environment.
Start up vendors often target Hydra as the best route to market for their solutions in the UK, as they understand that we are able to produce fast results
once we have successfully evaluated products.
In a nutshell we:
•understand our customers businesses and requirements;
•propose and design relevant pre-validated effective solutions;
•deliver those solutions in an "Integrated Technology Stack", ensuring that they seamlessly fit into existing infrastructure;
•ensure that everything we implement enhances the customers data security;
•provide post sales support and maintenance contracts to the customers required SLA;
•continuously monitor and test new technologies, to ensure that the solutions which Hydra offers are always the best available.
Our Values:
INTEGRITY: We take pride in the way we conduct business and are always honest and open with partners and customers. We know our strengths and limitations and we deliver on our promises.
TEAMWORK: No one has all of the answers all of the time. Our collegiate approach ensures that we make optimum use of the various resources within Hydra, customers, partners and others to produce the best result in the shortest time.
ENVIRONMENT: We make every attempt to minimise our carbon footprint and those of the solutions we promote.
RESPECT: Hydra values its relationships with employees, customers and our supply chain. Hydra pays suppliers promptly and endeavours to be friendly and professional at all times. We NEVER forget who the customer is!
STABILITY: Founded in 1997, Hydra has never had an overdraft or bank loan, or paid a dividend. All profits have been retained in the business and this has enabled us to survive two major recessions without ever making a compulsory redundancy. We also adopt a conservative risk-averse approach to our evaluations of new technologies, which means that we dont waste customers time with solutions which dont stand up to rigorous testing.
EXCELLENCE: Hydra seeks to employ the best. We never accept mediocrity- as a small company we cant afford to if we are to maintain our reputation for punching well above our weight. Equally, we seek to partner with the best and are always seeing to improve our vendor portfolio.
Founded in 1997 and based in the City of London, Hydra provides LAN, WAN and Web based solutions to businesses in one of the world's greatest commercial and financial centres. We have proved ourselves at the vanguard of technology time and time again. Despite having kept the company small in terms of headcount and the number of vendors we partner with, our customers include some of the world's premier financial institutions, media groups and professional services firms.The main reason that we have such a great customer list is that we generate confidence. Customers who deal with Hydra know that the job will be done on time, on budget and that the solution will work. They also know that we will move heaven and earth to make sure we exceed expectations, because that is the only way we can justify our customers faith in us.Prospective new customers are encouraged to reference us with existing customers. We understand that it can be difficult for large enterprises to entrust critical projects to small companies, so we try to make it as easy as possible for them to gain confidence in our abilities by speaking to people with experience of our service levels.With a conscious effort to remain small and efficient, the Hydra team of engineers, development and support staff is resourceful and flexible. We stick to our niche areas of specialisation and seek to employ the best in those fields. It is our belief that niche businesses are better equipped to provide excellence in their chosen fields than the larger one stop shops or outsourcing giants.We have established close direct relationships with some leading manufacturers, normally very early in their development. This ensures that Hydra always has access to the most advanced products, bringing them to the market first and giving our customers all of the advantages that come with early adoption. Of course, before we even think about showing new products to end users, we do our own technical due diligence, which gives our technical team in depth knowledge of every product we carry. For every new product we take on, there are probably twenty which we decline.Hydra has introduced to the UK such (now) well known technologies as:•ArrowPoint successful IPO, then acquired by Cisco;•CacheFlow now Blue Coat, successful IPO; •Netscreen acquired by Juniper;•Peribit acquired by Juniper; •Neoteris - acquired by Netscreen, now Juniper; •Redline acquired by Juniper; •DataPower acquired by IBM; •Top Layer; •Expand.
