At Action I.T. Consulting, we understand the pressures of running a small business. Many small businesses don't have an I.T. staff to rely on. After all, your focus should be on the business. The last thing you want to worry about are your computers. This is where we come in. From the initial planning, to the actual purchase and installation, we are there for you.

We can assist you in these critical areas:

Systems Support

Virus protection: It goes without saying that one virus can ruin your whole day, even bring your business to a screeching halt. Acting after a virus has struck is the wrong time to react. Making sure your antivirus software is installed properly and updated regularly is paramount.

Operating System Maintenance: If the computers you count on to operate your  business never crash and run fine day in and day out, you might think that applying patches isn't necessary. New vulnerabilities are being discovered practically every day. Failure to apply the necessary patch could be devastating. We test these patches before recommending them.

Application Maintenance: Much in the same way an operating system can be exploited, the applications you use could be as well.  As with any patches, we test them before recommending them.

Network Support

Protection: If your network has a connection to the internet, you'll need to set up some sort of protection. That doesn't mean you need to spend thousands of dollars on a firewall. In many cases a firewall isn't even necessary

Performance Analysis: You need to make sure your network is running at top performance. Failure to do that could lead in a loss of data.

Wireless: Installing wireless equipment on your network shouldn't be done for convenience's sake alone. Even with a firewall installed, if your wireless access points are not configured properly, your network could be hijacked and used for potentially destructive purposes.

Logistical Planning

Company Relocation: Your business is growing and the time has come to move into a new facility. How are you going to handle the transition of your voice and data equipment to that new facility? Relocation is a much larger task than one would imagine.

Datacenter Assessment: Are you getting enough out of your data center? Are you putting enough into it? Issues such as security and performance are mere parts when considering the design of your data center. Cooling, access and layout are just as critical. 

Staff Assessment: Your staff seems busy all the time. But are they focusing on the issues that are important to your business? What does your I.T. staff think are the major issues? Are they capable adapting to the fast changing business landscape? We take a non-adversarial approach to getting these questions answered.
