Prevention is better than cure
So how does this apply to your computers? It’s in our nature to be reactive. When something is broken we fix it. This applies to many aspects of life such as our health. What if something was in place to prevent computer breakage? Many of us service our cars regularly. Although its not quantifiable we are averting breakage via preventative servicing. Now apply the same concept to computers and you can reduce your yearly spend on reactive computer maintenance, or as we call it in the industry “break/fix”.
If you’d like to learn more about moving from a reactive IT approach to a pro-active strategy then contact Chicken Soup for a consultation and assessment of your needs.
Managed Services includes these 4 keys areas and you can choose one or all based on your needs:
24/7 Checks
A small piece of software installed on your PC or Mac monitors the health of your computer daily. Should a particular part of the computer fail an email is sent to Chicken Soup to bring the issue to our attention.
Patch Management
Your computer is kept secure by applying the constant stream of security patches/updates required by Apple and Microsoft. Managed services will automate that procedure for you. Critical patches are applied automatically. Even updates to other software like Adobe products are taken care of.
Managed Antivirus
Strong reliable antivirus is an absolute necessity. Antivirus and Antimalware products are constantly evolving based on the virus climate.
