When you set work aside for well-deserved time off, who is there making sure your IT systems are protected? If you want to make it easier for your team to relax during this upcoming holiday season, you need a security IT consultant team to help you manage your IT services.

The ideal managed IT or IT consulting services are offered by an organization that can oversee your technology and systems without getting in the way of your internal team and their day-to-day work.

With the holidays just around the corner, it’s easy to compare our services to the mischievous Elf on the Shelf that’s been a Christmas tradition for many families for the last 20 years. Like the Elf, we’re always there – just out of sight – and know how to protect your company from any potential dangers or bad guys lurking just around the corner.

How Do You Know When You Need Better IT Support?

If you’ve had the same IT setup and a consistent IT team for years, it can be challenging to know when you need help. A good indication is what happens to your team during the holidays.

The holidays are a busy time, with lots of people taking time off and many offices closed entirely for weeks. During this time, are you still able to be productive and take steps towards accomplishing your business goals? For many companies, the holidays are a period when work stalls, leading to a frantic scramble towards productivity when everyone returns in the new year.

Fortunately, there are many ways that Compass Computing Group can help improve your productivity, including over the holidays. Today, let’s talk about some of the ways our managed IT services can make a meaningful improvement within your business.

How Compass Computing Group Is Like Elf on the Shelf for Your Business

Working with a trusted tech company is key to implementing solutions that are custom-designed to your business and can help boost productivity and connections between colleagues and customers.

Here are some of the most common services and solutions we offer our partners.

Improved cybersecurity services

How you set up cybersecurity for your organization has a huge impact on your business. After all, a weak cybersecurity posture can easily allow bad actors to penetrate your system, putting your business at risk for data theft, ransomware, and all the other challenges that come with a breach.

By building a better cybersecurity framework together, we can help protect your sensitive data and balance your priorities to ensure that your IT system is accessible to staff, but guarded against threats. Like any good Elf, we’ll always be there to help you watch out for bad guys and take action to stop them from penetrating your internal systems.

Diligent custom reporting and critical updates

When we partner with you to start managing your IT, we diligently take care of your needs and reach out whenever necessary. Some clients like monthly reports, while others just want to hear when something goes wrong and what we’ve done to solve it.

Our diligence also extends to critical updates. Whenever a new Windows or Microsoft patch comes out, we put it on a two-week testing cycle first to ensure that it works and is safe to apply to your technology. This way, you have the security of knowing that you’ll never again be subjected to the break-fix cycle and can move forward with a more proactive approach.

Infrastructure management

When your team is busy with their day-to-day tasks, it’s challenging to stay on top of infrastructure and technology management. However, without someone actively managing your IT and technology investments, you may never know when something is about to go wrong.

Let us give you the long-term IT support you need. Outsourced IT support offers continual monitoring and oversight, plus a 24/7 help desk. This is ideal for a holiday season when much your staff are trying to get work done on off days, early mornings, and late nights.

More reliable cloud computing

You don’t have to be watching a Christmas movie to know that, sometimes, bad weather can lead to a whole new plan. If there’s bad weather or you’re iced in, you need to know that your cloud setup or VPN can enable remote access, allowing your staff to stay productive wherever they are.

If you don’t already have cloud computing set up, we can help deploy best-of-breed platforms, like Axcient, to ensure you’re always ready for bad weather.

Compliance

If your business process involves HIPAA, PII, FTI or SEC compliance, we can help keep you off the naughty list using protocols that keep your unique needs in mind.
