Spring isn’t quite in the air just yet, but the warm feelings generated by Valentine’s Day can’t be denied. While you’re planning whatever romantic gestures you want to extend to a special someone, you might want to think about lavishing a bit of love on that hard-working IT department of yours. When you fix or upgrade essential technology, you’re not just boosting efficiency and productivity; you’re also boosting your technicians’ morale by making life easier for them. Let’s look at a few examples of technological TLC you might want to provide this year.

Outsourced managed services - Your technicians spend enough of their time and mental energy solving big problems without also having to worry about simple, tedious, yet equally necessary housekeeping tasks. There’s no reason they should stress out over chores like system updates and data backup when you can offload that work to our remote managed services experts. They’ll also gain the peace of mind that comes with knowing that these jobs are still getting done like clockwork.

Updated machines - Old hardware can generate ill feelings among your workforce if it keeps employees from working quickly and easily. Sluggish workstations, servers, and connectivity can occur for a variety of reasons, not all of which are easy to pinpoint. Now’s the perfect time to schedule a professional assessment of your system’s hardware strengths and shortcomings. It’s a great way to show your team that you care.

Stronger security - Nothing can break your heart faster than a brutal ransomware-based hijacking of your precious data or phishing attempts that manipulate your more trusting employees into sharing the wrong information with the wrong people. Protect your IT system by investing in stronger firewall protection, more secure password protocols, and data security training for your troops.
