Terrible to work with
Overall Satisfaction with Sungard Availability Services Managed Hosting
We provide software and web development services to a healthcare organisation within the UK and they have their current website and database hosted within Sungard's infrastructure.
As their web developer, we needed access to the server in order to deploy updates to their website software. This has so far taken us 6 months of back and forth with their support team and we are still no closer to gaining the access we need to our client's server, despite the client having initiated this request themselves.

- Security - no-one can access your systems, even you!
- Convoluted support systems.
- Obstructive bureaucracy.
- Inflexible support personnel/policies unable to do what it takes to get the job done.
- Delayed several web projects due to inability to gain access to servers.
- High cost in lost/wasted time and effort trying to get anywhere with their support team.
No contest. If you can, use Azure.
