Common Technology Hurdles that Impede Progress

Technology is complex and moving fast, making it hard to keep up. It makes sense to stay focused on your business – what you do best – rather than getting distracted. However, you can never ignore IT. Done right, well-managed technology cuts costs and will help your business get to the next level.

Don’t let these common technology hurdles impede the progress of your business…

Routine ‘Day in – Day Out’ Problems — Handling routine user problems often stretches IT resources, which can come at the expense of never having time to plan or implement new applications that drive more business.
Some Vendors Add Risk — Relying on outside vendors can slow you down if they don’t have the right tools or depth of knowledge to facilitate repairs. Every new ‘expert’ means you have to start over.
Managing Data Protection — The right processes and procedures must be in place to bring systems back online after a disaster. This means performing daily backups and routine testing.
‘Off the Shelf’ Solutions — Trying to automate IT chores with software may create even more headaches and leave gaps that can expose the entire organization, including your branches and remote workers.
Looking for the Best Deals — Small firms lack big business buying power, so every new request for services or products means a negotiation to get the best pricing or the best solution… More time wasted.
Maintaining Security — Today’s online threats require vigilance and continuous patches. A breach can result in the loss of data, the failure of critical systems, a tarnished image, and even litigation.
