Proactive IT Support
Our ‘Managed IT’ services keep your systems running smoothly. Using remote monitoring and management technologies, we identify potential problems with your servers and workstations before they ever have a chance to cause you disruption.
Proactive IT Management
Operating 24 hours a day, these proactive monitoring systems fix most problems as they arise and they quickly flag those they can’t. They check the vital signs of your key infrastructure and keep you fully informed of what’s going on. In many cases, they even allows us to fix problems remotely without ever having to interrupt your routine operations.
Under a managed server agreement, we monitor your systems on a continuous basis, enabling us to spot the first signs of faults, conflicts and bottlenecks. This, coupled with our remote management facility, means we can deliver a pre-emptive fix to prevent them from impacting on your productivity.
In addition to continuous monitoring of your hardware resilience and fault tolerance, we’ll also monitor your back-ups, hypervisor status, and the temperatures and fan speeds of your servers. In all, we keep track of around 300 metrics on every server we watch. If you are running key services such as SQL, we’ll watch those closely, too.
We can also scan your network devices and update your software patches/hotfixes, your anti-virus definitions and generally bolster your defences against cyber threats. This further reduces your risks, whilst maximising network security.
Our managed server support is available to all types of business no matter the size.
