SMALL BUSINESS

What is your business worth?

Regardless of your business size, if the data is lost you are out of business.

In a business that is too small to have its own IT specialist, advice can come from various sources -- all good -- but it may end up aspects of the computer system that aren't fully integrated or tuned to the customer's needs.

In other instances, a small business will cope with workarounds when a computer doesn't seem to work right anymore. Popup messages often get ignored; these need to be addressed and may in fact be security risks. Viruses and spyware can get inadvertantly downloaded simply because there is no one to maintain system performance, security and integrity.

Unecessary expense may be incurred by the purchase of a new computer, when simple maintenance of the current hardware may be all that is required. Assets may be under-utilised. At other times, new hardware may in fact be necessary; this is when you need the advice of your computer consultant.

Moving data securely across from old systems to new systems ; secure erasing of data off old systems; providing data backup as well as data recovery is all part of the consulting service.

Your needs will be analysed according to what equipment your business already has. We don't sell computer parts or receive commissions for equipment you purchase, so any recommendations are based purely on what will help you.

A computer that runs well runs in the background!
