It used to be that businesses controlled how their staff used and accessed data in the workforce by simple physical proximity: users came to work and accessed networks on company devices, and that was that. In today's more diverse workforce, people want to be able to work remotely and access their resources at any time without coming into the office.

Many companies allow or encourage workers to use their own devices, which makes it even tougher to regulate access and ensure consistent security for company data and networks. Microsoft’s new Azure cloud computing tools provide solutions to many of these modern issues.

It wasn't long ago that parents taught their kids about the dangers of talking to strangers in public. Nowadays, parents have much more to worry about than their kids' in-person interactions with strangers.

Great question.

If you’re a business owner, I encourage you to ask yourself the same question about your own line of services.

If you’re still using an office phone system from the 80s, it’s time to upgrade. Newer office phone systems offer benefits like shared resources, lower costs, and advanced features to connect all of your communications systems.

Reliable business communications systems are vital to your company’s operations and growth. Being able to connect with customers is one of your most basic needs! But today’s business phone system options are anything but basic. If you’re still using a premises-based hard line phone system, you probably also have a patchwork of mobile devices to supplement your old technology. You could be getting better service, better performance, and an overall better deal by upgrading your business phone systems.

IT is a high pressure industry, and the people that work in it must calm people when they’re most frustrated. Let’s have some fun with IT and lighten things up a little.

In our modern society of constant internet availability and round-the-clock global workforces, your business needs to be able to rely on its computer technology to keep your network, website, and business operations up and running. In the case of a disaster—a loss or destruction of data or other incident that interrupts your business—you need to be able to quickly get back up on your feet and into the game. 

If you run a business, you take on many roles, from sales professional to maintenance person, as your business requires. But as your business grows and your technology expands, your IT needs may start to outpace your knowledge and abilities (not to mention your available time). Small-to-medium businesses (SMBs) need reliable technology to be successful; it is the heartbeat of a 21^st-century business. Without it, your business is slow and uncompetitive. Done properly, it can help make you the local leader in your market segment. If you need help managing your technology, a managed IT service provider can be the answer.
