Offsite backup

How prepared is your business for a disaster? Sadly, the last time the average corporate backup system was checked and tested was the day it was installed. A well-planned backup and recovery solution plays a crucial role in minimizing downtime in a disaster and preventing data loss in the event of server or application failure. Furthermore, the backup and recovery infrastructure must take into account multiple factors. Advance Network Solutions, Inc. provides detailed build, configuration, and test guidance for your corporate backup and recovery solution. Advance Network Solutions, Inc. will provide your business with operations guidance for the backup and recovery, guided by the unique data requirements of your organization.

More time to run your business

Like most small business owners, you'd rather spend more time on your business, and less time on your technology. Advance Network Solutions, Inc. can help your business thrive. Every Microsoft Small Business Specialist has years of IT management experience to help them better understand and respond to the special long term technology needs as small businesses grow

As a small business, there are numerous business advantages to outsourcing your IT services. If you have an employee who is your dedicated IT generalist, consider the impact to your business when that person gets sick or takes vacation. Are you in compliance with employment overtime laws when your staff is required to work evenings or weekends? Does your business have a single point of failure on one or two key individuals.

Advance Network Solutions, Inc. has a seasoned staff of IT consultants who are familiar with your network so you will always have the support you need and can depend on. 24x7x365. As your extended staff, we never complain about emergency requests and always respond promptly. We are not generalists, and as a professional team of many experts, we provide the right staff for each task, not simply whomever is available.

If you have an IT department, we can complement and extend your staff, on-call, as needed. We provide a complete outsourcing solution, covering every aspect of developing and maintaining a network to developing a customized web or software solution. Our technology expertise and core competencies include Exchange Server Consulting, Small Business Server Support, Cisco VPN installation, Active Directory Design, Windows Server Support and .NET development.

You can utilize our services for hourly IT support on an as-needed basis. We often recommend to new small business clients that they use this option during an evaluation phase before they decide to engage us for an on-going relationship. Brand new clients also use our hourly support when they need immediate assistance. While this option is costlier per hour than our advance-pay options, and tend to be used mostly when there is a problem (often a crisis), and as a result it can be very reactive. Since the majority of IT problems can be prevented with a regular, proactive approach to IT support, you may wish to utilize our services in a proactive model.

Regardless of how you engage us, we understand what a small business requires, and we possess the experience and ability to provide industry best-practices. If you don't have access to dependable IT expertise, allow the seasoned staff at Advance Network Solutions, Inc. to provide a complete outsourcing solution to benefit your business today and as it grows and changes.

Remote Network Monitoring

At Advance Network Solutions, Inc., we take care of your network so you can take care of your business. We employ powerful remote network monitoring tools such as MOM and System Center Operations Manager to provide 24x7 proactive support for your business.

Our preventative maintenance services, active issue troubleshooting, and remote resolution can save your businesses from critical downtime, not to mention the cost avoidance of an information technology office visit. At the first sign of trouble within your business infrastructure our staff is immediately notified and begins to respond.

We are notified not only of system failures, but issues well before they occur. For example, we can see CPU or memory utilization out of spec, long running or blocked SQL transactions, disk space running low, unusual event log activity, network saturation, and much more. Our monitoring covers operating systems including Windows and Linux, Active Directory, Microsoft SQL Server, Exchange Server, as well as your backup software to ensure that your backups are succeeding.
