An intelligently and efficiently planned computer network empowers an organization to run more smoothly and cost effectively. It empowers your staff by keeping their work organized and establishing consistent procedures for the creation, storage and production of documents and other data. Implementing and effective e-mail, faxing, and document sharing systems facilitate communication among your staff - as well as between staff and their outside contacts.
A good network centralizes your organization's key information resources and data. When combined with redundancy and a thorough backup system, you maximize the protection of the products of your staff's long hours against disasters such as power outages, fires, and/or other contingencies. Below is a typical network design process:
Network Assessment: Analysis of existing hardware components, Network Operating System (NOS), network & stand-alone applications. Make equipment and software recommendations based on current and future needs.
Vendor Selection: Assist you with finding the best vendor for your business. Finding vendors familiar with your type of business is important, and can greatly reduce the costs and/or delays associated with acquisition and implementation of new technologies. We can also research vendors with proven track records with disaster recovery.
Equipment Purchase: We assist with equipment purchases on your behalf, or provide assistance during the process.
Hardware Installation: Installation of almost any networking component including managed switches, routers, firewall's (see managed security), WLAN, printers, workstations and peripherals.
Software Installation: Installation of Network Operating System (NOS), migrations to Microsoft Windows 2000/2003 Server from Novell and Macintosh. Set security for the entire platform and implement of data backup solutions and effective tape rotation schedule based on client needs.
