Are my IT systems set up correctly or are they set up to fail?

Am I getting the most from my current IT provider or are they just taking my money?

How can I keep all my files and documents secured all in one place?

Will my business continue to operate as normal in the case of a disaster at the office?

How can I make collaboration within my team more efficient and seamless?

These are probably only a few of the many questions popping through your head when it comes to protecting your business from a massive IT failure.

With over 15 years of experience in the IT services industry, I have seen many things going wrong. I can help you with all of these questions and any others you may have as well as pointing you in the right direction towards securing your IT systems.  

I have been helping Auckland businesses keeping on top of their network security, business continuity and IT solutions needs for over 15 years with IT consultation and support services.

I understand and feel the frustration that comes with having your systems not running properly and slowing down your business productivity.

I will take the frustration away from you and provide you with the best IT solutions to suit your needs. You can rest assured that your devices run smoothly and all your important data is safely stored and managed.

Always protected in case of a disaster

As a business owner, you need to cover your bases. As I always say ‘two is one and one is zero’. Don’t get caught with your pants down.
Ensure your business can continue in the event of failure. Are you set up to avoid the worst?

Centralised collaboration

Having a centralised collaboration system means that your processes will be more streamlined and easy to execute, which will save you lots of time.

Some of the incredible benefits of a centralised collaboration system include: 

  • Shared calendar and email with other employees.
  • Synced calendar and email across all devices. Eg what I see on the phone mirrors what is on the computer.
  • Robust spam filtering and security.
  • Shared files and folders.

Recently I partnered with an Auckland optometrist

I have an Optometrist client that had a server on the verge of collapse. It was hanging on by a thread. The data was becoming corrupted and was hardly staying on.

I was contacted by the person looking after the system, which was a family friend. He was an IT worker with a full-time job at a large accounting firm. He did not have the time to look after his friend’s system anymore. Especially in the state it was since it needed a lot of work!

I stepped in and assessed the server and system. They had an ESX server with one Windows 2012 virtual server on it. We could see heavy corrupting on the data. So far, their applications were running OK but the server would go down regularly due to the corruption.

They needed new server hardware but in the short term, we needed to move the system on any other temporary hardware. I migrated it to an interim server (desktop computer with ESX on it) and stabilised the corruption. The corruption ceased, so our hypothesis that the hardware was causing it was correct.

I then procured a robust server solution for them from Dell. Put this together and migrated the software again to this. They now have a robust solution that will last for years. With redundancy built-in so if something goes wrong with the hardware it can be easily replaced.

What can I expect from working with you?

Integrity, transparency, commitment, clear communication and honesty. Just to name a few.

How long will it take to see results?

It really depends on the service.

I usually build websites between 4-6 weeks, sometimes might take longer it is a complex website if you require additional add ons (like email autoresponder set up, for example).

For IT support, it depends on the specific needs and requirements. I can usually give a timeframe after assessing your systems.

Digital marketing is almost impossible to set a timeframe as it is an ongoing process that requires a lot of testing and experimenting. Very likely that results will start showing between 3-6 months.
