If you don’t have anything in place to solve a network crisis then you should be reading this… You might think this is unlikely to happen to you, but believe me the risk is very serious and should not be ignored.
Luck Is Not A Strategy...
Up until recently, we’ve mostly delivered only reactive network repairs, support, and maintenance to our clients. Something stops working, you call us, and we come out and fix it. Up until now, this type of break-fix service has worked out okay and most of our clients have been “lucky” to not experience a major disaster.
But there is a HUGE, hairy problem with this type of support...
If you are a business that cannot function without access to the data and systems held on your network, then it’s incredibly important that you don’t turn a blind eye to proactively monitoring and maintaining your network, instead of reacting to problems as they occur. Let me explain...
I’m sure you’ve experienced a period of time when your e-mail or Internet service wasn’t available to you. Remember how much it impaired your ability to work? Or maybe you’ve had an application crash in the middle of a process or document causing you to lose the work you had done. Pretty frustrating.
However, These Are Insignificant Compared To The Problems That Could Happen!
Imagine losing every file on your hard drive to a hardware failure only to discover that the tape backup you thought was working - wasn’t. Imagine a virus installing itself on your network and spamming every client, supplier, and friend you have in your address book with a nasty version of itself, courtesy of your server. Or imagine (Continued on page 3) a server crashing in the middle of a project deadline causing even more delays and hours of lost work. All of these situations are far more common than you might imagine. However, most business owners don’t think about protecting themselves against these disasters until they occur. By then, the damage is done and in some cases, could cost several thousand dollars to repair the network and restore the data lost.
There Is An Easy Way To Avoid These Problems
Fortunately, there is an inexpensive and easy way for you to completely avoid - even anticipate and prevent - these problems while making your network far more secure, reliable, and problem free. But before I tell you what it is, let me explain how it came about...
As I mentioned earlier, in the past we had been primarily providing reactive network support to our clients. That’s because we weren’t physically able to deliver proactive monitoring and maintenance. To provide even the most basic proactive network support would have required us to be on-site almost every day, spending ½ an hour to ¾ of an hour on every machine. As you can imagine, this would get very expensive for you, and would be virtually impossible for us to do based on the number of clients we currently serve. So we knew we needed a better way to deliver proactive support to our clients that not only allowed us to monitor their networks 24/7, but that also made it VERY affordable.
That’s why we’ve invested in a new technology that allows us to monitor all of our clients’ networks 24/7/365 days a year for a fraction of the time and cost.
Fewer Problems, Faster Performance, and Peace of Mind All For A Flat Monthly Fee!
For one flat, monthly fee, we will provide remote monitoring of your network to not only ensure that it is running at peak performance, but also that your data is secure. We’ll make sure that your backups are functioning, that your virus definitions are up-to-date, that your firewall is configured properly, that your server is optimized, as well as keep an eye on over 100 system processes and alerts that could spell problems brewing.
If you hired a technician – even a junior one – to perform these basic network tasks, it could easily cost you £35,000 in salary, insurance, and hiring costs. If you were to outsource this type of service, it would easily run you £800 to £2,000 a month in hourly, on-site fees. However, thanks to the Hassle-Free Computer Service product we’ve invested in, we can deliver all of these services to you starting from £30 per month.
100% You-Can’t-Lose Guarantee
If you aren’t sure that this service is something you need, you can sign up and try it out for 1 month. If at the end of that month you aren’t absolutely convinced that this service is worth every penny you are paying, simply contact us and we’ll stop the service and issue you a complete refund for the month. That way, you have absolutely nothing to risk. What could be more fair than that?
If you’d like to learn more about this great new service, please contact us on 0207 494 2121 or e-mail us at support@itsoho.co.uk.
