Braga and Minho

IT Services for Businesses in Braga

Braga has two economies sharing the same territory: an export industry — electronics, automotive components, textiles, footwear — and a young, fast-growing tech sector. Both need infrastructure, but for opposite reasons. DataRoad works with both.

Exporting industry
Electronics, components and textiles with demanding supply chains
Rapid growth
Companies that double their team and change premises in a few years
Several hubs
Braga, Barcelos, Guimarães and Famalicão, often within the same company
Porto next door
Operations split between the Minho and the metropolitan area

What is different in Braga

The most common error we find in Minho isn't bad infrastructure — it's infrastructure set up for a company that no longer exists. Many businesses in the region grew faster than the network supporting them: more people, another warehouse, another branch, everything added to what was already there, without anyone ever looking back at the original design.

Growth by accumulation

Switch after switch, an access point where there was a lack of signal, a new server next to the old one. It works until it stops working — and by that time nobody knows anymore what depends on what.

More than just a place

It is common for the headquarters to be in Braga and the production plant or warehouse in another municipality. Connecting the locations securely, and with sufficient performance to share systems, is a design problem, not an equipment one.

Demands that come from the supply chain

Supplying electronics or automotive components brings information security requirements imposed by the end customer. They arrive via questionnaire and, increasingly, by audit.

High-standard tech companies

The region's software teams know exactly what they want from the infrastructure — and they notice immediately when the network is the bottleneck. It's a demanding client, and a good thing too.

Connecting multiple locations as if they were one

When the company has its headquarters, factory and warehouse in different locations, the question is not what equipment to buy — it is what actually needs to be accessible from everywhere, and what benefits from staying local.

Once that is defined, the rest follows: site-to-site connections, firewalls with per-segment rules, and unified management to avoid tripling the maintenance work.

What we provide in the region

Service This includes
Assistance and support Remote and on-site support for workstations and staff, incident management and IT Unlimited at a fixed cost.
Networks and cabling Certified structured cabling, Layer 3 switching, PoE and fibre between buildings in the same complex.
Multi-local Secure connection between head office, factory and warehouse, with access to the same systems from any location.
Wireless Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 7 with roof design for office, pavilion and warehouse.
Cyber security Enterprise firewall, traffic segmentation, managed antivirus and documentation for audits.
Servers and data Servers, virtualisation and backups with restoration trials.
A project with the same profile. At Magnelusa we carried out the IT network installation for the operation, and at Sten we oversaw the network expansion of a company with offices in more than one country. These are the two problems that most frequently appear in the Minho region: growing without having to redo everything, and keeping multiple locations functioning as one.

How we got started

1

Survey

Site visits, inventory of existing assets and mapping of what is actually connected — which in most growing companies is not documented anywhere.

2

Proposal with scope

What is included, what is left out, response times and a fixed monthly fee. With priorities, so that everything doesn't need to be done at the same time.

3

Execution

Cabling, active equipment, security and posts, in phases and during agreed windows, so that operations do not stop during the works.

4

Operation

Helpdesk, 24/7 monitoring and periodic reporting, with the infrastructure documented and kept up to date.

Structured cabling and wireless networks in Braga

Connecting pavilions without relying on copper

The industrial and technological fabric of Braga often operates across multiple buildings on the same site, and that is where improvised networks fail: copper cannot guarantee a connection over those distances, and the solution ends up being a poorly aligned wireless bridge that drops out in bad weather. We make structured cabling with fibre optic cabling between buildings and intermediate racks, CAT6 or CAT6A copper cabling for the workstations, and point-to-point certification delivered in writing.

Industrial-grade Wi-Fi

Between steel structures, height and machinery, the signal behaves in a way that no floor plan anticipates. We installed enterprise wireless networks with an on-site survey carried out, antennas chosen for the type of space, PoE power from the rack and a separate network for production equipment.

Between two pavilions, fibre finally solves what wireless solves while the weather holds up. It is a design decision, not a budget one: it is more expensive on the day and cheaper for ten years.

We cover Braga and the Minho, with our own team on the ground.

Frequently Asked Questions

We have premises in different council areas. Can you cover everything?

Yes. Management is centralised and monitoring is the same for all locations, which avoids having to treat each one as a separate company. Travel arrangements are defined by contract.

Our network has grown bit by bit. Do we need to tear the whole thing down?

Almost never. The survey states what is worth keeping and what is limiting the rest. The usual approach is to replace the core and security first, and fix the periphery in phases.

Our clients carry out security audits. Do you help to answer them?

We help. We implement the measures and deliver the documentation that proves them: access management, segmentation, a backup policy with restoration tests, and an incident log.

We are a software company. Does it make sense for us?

We do, precisely because the team knows what it wants. We take care of the infrastructure, the workstations and the security so that the technical team doesn't have to, and we discuss decisions with those who understand them.

How much is it?

The model IT Unlimited fix a monthly fee per defined scope, with no call counting — allowing the year to be budgeted with predictability.

A chat before making a decision

Whether you are solving a specific problem, preparing for a relocation, or simply looking for a second opinion, we always start the same way: understanding your case before proposing anything. No commitment, no jargon, and no catalogues.
