We come across many small businesses who use the “boss’ nephew” IT support model. The boss’ nephew is good with computers, and comes in every now and then to remove a virus, add a printer, or help with user issues. He works part-time somewhere else, so he can’t make it out during normal business hours. He only comes out when something major happens, so the office is “on their own” for day-to-day issues. He setup a backup but isn’t responsible for checking it. He setup a secure wireless network but didn’t leave the password. Does this sound familiar? Does it leave you with the uneasy feeling that nobody is really managing your network?
Managing Information Technology for your small business goes beyond troubleshooting issues as they arise. In addition to technical expertise for day-to-day network issues, you need strategic-level recommendations concerning hardware purchases, backup solutions, cloud computing services, colocation, VPNs, server infrastructure, and more.
