Why Managed Services

As a business owner, you’re probably well aware of the many distractions that pose a very real threat to your efficiency and productivity. When your staff sets aside their regular duties to troubleshoot printer problems or install software upgrades, you’re losing valuable time and money. With our managed IT services, you’ll save both—and you’ll also enjoy the peace of mind that comes with knowing your information and your equipment is secure. We don’t just fix what’s broken—we continually monitor your computer systems and make proactive recommendations to prevent downtime and loss of data.

Even in the absence of a critical failure, your hardware and software systems demand ongoing maintenance throughout the year. Rather than burdening technical employees with these distracting tasks, let our partner InFocus, function as your full-service IT department. This includes operating system upgrades to software renewals, they’ll take care of all aspects of your technical needs. With a sound managed services plan in place, you and your employees will be free to focus on what’s most important—your business.

Why Do A Computer Network Assessment

Not sure about the state of your network? Our engineers can conduct a network assessment that will provide you with a snapshot of your current IT environment. You will receive a report that identifies the key components of your infrastructure, and prioritizes issues requiring remediation.

For this assessment, a certified network engineer will spend one day on-site to perform the following activities:

A physical examination of your technical architecture including server(s), PC’s, switches, routers, and other crucial equipment
A review of existing network documentation
A meeting with key staff
An analysis of key staff issues (as provided) and follow-up, if necessary
A presentation of key observations and recommendations in table form
An optional follow-up meeting with us to discuss any recommendations, issues, or remediation

We’ll suggest how you can plan for:

· System capacity (growth or reduction)
· IT Budgeting
· Process Streamlining
· Data Security

Our Process

Risk Management

Managing risk is an increasingly important part of the job of CIOs and IT executives. Risk management includes securing corporate systems, networks, and data, ensuring availability of systems and services, planning for disaster recovery and business continuity, complying with government regulations and license agreements, and protecting the organization against an increasing array of threats such as viruses, worms, spyware, and other forms of malware.

This is DKL Consulting first step in protecting your business reputation and operational continuity from network-related security risks.

We bring together our network assessment tools, methodology, and expertise to help identify and assess your network. It helps you identify your assets and understand how they are connected and how to improve security compliance.
