Your company relies on a computer network to keep it running, and to keep it connected. Everyone who works in your office, and works outside of it on company sanctioned laptops and tablets, are going to log into the same nerve center day after day, with all the information and materials they could ever need all kept in one place.
It’s a marvel of engineering in the digital world, and it can be a lot more private than simply setting up a wireless WIFI router and protecting it with a password. If you have a whole network besides this, wired up and ready to go, you can better keep outside intrusions out, and all your company data and customer details in.
But could the network you have set up use a little more work? Maybe a few upgrades, or maybe just some rearranging? Let’s think about it below.
Could You Use Some More Server or Storage Space?
The network you use to keep all of your intangible business assets in place needs to be one of capability. It needs to be an extensive system you can store and store away on – as much as you need to as your business naturally grows and expands, without any need for you to delete old or unnecessary files to clear space for the new entries. It needs to be of a certain technological level that can handle the performance of multiple computers at once, and never lags or crashes because of it.
And if you’re noticing your network suddenly slowing from time to time, especially since you’ve added some new hires to the office, it’s time to invest in some more server or storage space. Sure, you can turn to an offshoot cloud system if that’s cheaper, but it’s much better to keep your network safe and contained.
Get Yourself a Technology Support Desk
It’s not just the network you base yourself on that’s vulnerable to the monthly advances in technology, but any equipment that’s connected to it as well. So to make sure you can better serve yourself in the years to come as a successful business, make sure you line up a support desk for any and all of your IT concerns.
There’s plenty of IT Consultants out there, of course, but you’re going to want to invest in a package that, well, gives you the whole package. You’ll want day to day computer support, to cover problems such as getting stuck in boot loops or not being able to connect up a keyboard, and you’ll want access to long term struggles as well. These can include the break down of a network connection, the need to replace certain parts of your equipment in the system, and potentially, the sudden and overwhelming loss of any and all data as servers go kaput on you.
The network that branches all the way through your company needs to be strong and secure, so be sure that you’re always taking strides to improve it.
