Preventative Support

Preventative support is a different way of approaching IT support. Traditionally you have an IT problem and then call IT support to report the issue.  You then wait for IT to come out and fix it. At Net Route we have turned this round, using our own in house developed remote management monitoring system.

We monitor your servers, workstations, and laptops collecting information about them.

How much memory is being used?

How much disk space is left?

Did last night’s backup complete successfully?

Are they working?

These are just some examples. Using this information we can spot a potential problem before it happens and get it fixed before it affects you.

We look after IT and you use IT.

When was the last time you backed up your files?

Posted on February 28, 2012 at 10:13 0 Comments

This is a question I find myself asking a lot.  I would like you to take the time now to have a think about the question and what your answer is?  You can even text your answer to 07943852856?  Be honest, in order to best protect your data I need you to be honest.  Ok the correct answer was:

“Last night Andy”

If your answer was not last night Andy, then I can help you out.  The solution is inexpensive and could save your business if the worst happened.

What is the value of your IT systems?

Posted on February 23, 2012 at 11:36 1 Comment

IT has become a way of life.  We now rely on it for most of our day to day activities.  The biggest challenge for an IT company such as ours is to convince our customers about the value of the IT systems they use.  So how do we measure the value of the IT systems in a business? Well for a start we can ignore what the computers, servers and printers cost.  That’s not the value we are interested in. That’s for insurance companies to worry about.  Let’s look at a typical transaction made with a…

Gwyneth’s engagement ring was once her Granmother’s. It is an old style three diamond ring. You might say, well, a lot of girls get their engagement rings passed on to them and you might be right about that. However, reading Gwyneth’s story I sensed neither Gwyneth nor her Gran were what…
