We’ll Help Give Your IT Team a Hand

We’ll Help Give Your IT Team a Hand

Technology is the cornerstone of most modern business operations, making supporting this technology more important than ever. That’s one reason we’re so proud to provide IT assistance to our fellow businesses.

As we’ve done so, however, we’ve noted that some assistance is required more often than other forms of support. Let’s go over what some of these usual suspects are, and why it is so helpful to have someone (ideally, us) assisting you in managing them.

First, we need to talk about perhaps the most well-known of them all…

Passwords

Passwords have been the go-to security measure for years, leading to more than anyone can realistically memorize—especially with best practices requiring unique ones for each account. Frequent password resets only add to the challenge, forcing users to either reuse a single, insecure password across multiple accounts or constantly forget their secure ones and rely on support for resets.

We're always happy to help, but some tools make this even easier. Modern password managers let you and your team maintain many strong, secure passwords while only remembering one to access an encrypted vault of credentials.

Subscription Chaos

Business subscriptions are essentially like gym memberships: you sign up with good intentions, forget about half of them, and suddenly realize you’ve been paying for something you haven’t used in six months. Your team can’t get work done if you have too few licenses. You have too many, and you’re throwing money away. With our help, you’ll keep only what you need, ditch the extras, and make sure no subscription negatively affects your budget.

Now You See It, Now You Don’t

With so many people working remotely, a bad Internet connection is basically a business-wide crisis. We’ll make sure your network is reliable, fast, and won’t mysteriously die in the middle of a crucial Zoom call. 

Hackers Don’t Take Days Off

Cybercriminals are out there, sharpening their digital tools and waiting for the perfect moment to strike… which usually happens when your team is most distracted. Sure, your employees can help keep things secure, but they’ve got jobs to do. That’s where we come in: making sure your defenses are strong enough to keep hackers out so your team can focus on actually doing their jobs.

Data Loss Is a Disaster

Losing your business data is like losing your phone: you don’t realize how much you rely on it until it’s gone. Whether it’s accidental deletion, hardware failure, or some rogue employee deleting or overwriting critical data, data loss can be a nightmare. We make sure your data is backed up, retrievable, and safe, so you never have to panic when disaster strikes.
