Importance of IT in lockdown
The pandemic and resulting lockdowns have led to significant changes in our day to day lives. Becoming increasingly reliant on technology in order to furfil our working days as well as communicate with friends and family.
Cloud services for example, have enabled companies to remain in contact with staff, suppliers and customers from anywhere at any time. This is without an expensive of having a shope and for a start-up business, the potential savings as a result of this are invaluable.
However, due to the amount of people working from home on most likely a less secure network, they are being open up to potential cyber attacks. This can be avoided though by using a strong antivirus that can handle the demands.
Essential IT for start-ups
Strong internet connection
These day, most things rely on the internet and without a fast, reliable connection you’re unfortunately setting yourself up for failure. Sruggling with your wifi signal? check out our fully managed WiFi services.
Secure antivirus software
On average, a small business in the UK is successfully hacked every 19 seconds! The impact of a security breach for any business can be catastrophic, from financial losses, reputational damage and compliance breaches.
Cloud computing
Cloud computing is quickly becoming a goto service for a lot of businesses. Cloud computing covers networking, databases, storage, servers, analytics and intelligence via the internet.
Cloud computing also allows for flexible scalability as your business grows and your needs change, as well as increasing security and aiding compliance – all whilst saving money on running costs like on-site data centres.
Phones (VoIP)
Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology is one of the most efficient and cost effective ways of making phone calls. As well as being reliable it also boasts advanced technical features including advanced call management, conferencing, voicemail forwarding to email or text and many more. This allows businesses to easily connect with their customers, improving their customer service.
Technical support
Ongoing technical support, as part of a managed service gives you the peace of mind that your IT is in safe hands, leaving you to focus on other aspects of the business. 24/7 monitoring allows for early diagnosis of potential issues, which means problems can be resolved with minimal disruption to your services and sometimes fixed before the issue even arises.
