We all love the idea of freedom. Of course, it’s often illusory, and most of us are tied down by all sorts of concerns and responsibilities that we can’t escape. Business owners are no exception. Their calendars are full, their to-do list never gets shorter and they have responsibilities to staff and customers to fulfil. Taking a break isn’t really an option for people dedicated to their work. How do you find freedom in the workplace? Quikteks has ideas about how you can set yourself free.
If you’re chained to your desk, there’s no freedom. One thing that can really curtail your freedom is poor time management. If you’re a business owner, you may think that’s nonsense. You’re in control of your time, your productivity apps are a great aid to planning, but you still don’t have any time, because it seems there just isn’t enough of it. Does that sound like you? If so, perhaps you need to seek out new ways to free up your day.
Quikteks can’t supply you with extra hours in the day, but we can provide you with technological solutions that will save you time. Technology won’t give you complete freedom but it can definitely be a huge help. Here are some business technology solutions that will take you minutes to consider but could save you many hours on IT management in the longer term.
Maintenance, Upgrading and Updating
Software maintenance is something you can’t afford to ignore, even if it does take up a whole lot of time. If you’re a business owner and this all your responsibility, then there’s good news. You don’t have to spend time doing it all yourself. Quikteks can provide you with managed IT services that include software upgrades, implemented remotely. As well as saving time, you can also be confident that having the latest versions and up-to-date security patches will strengthen your network security. To help you avoid future problems, our service also includes maintaining your supported operating systems and your antivirus protection.
Maybe the burden of IT management and maintenance doesn’t fall entirely to you. If you outsource your IT to Quikteks, we can save you time in other ways too. Our remote software maintenance and other managed IT services, will lighten the load of whoever manages your IT. This is what we call ‘co-managed IT’. The person who does your ‘computer stuff’ can then contribute to other areas of your business, and take other pressure off you.
Data Backup and Disaster Recovery
Loss of data can bring your business to a standstill. Quikteks offers a data backup and disaster recovery solution that means your data is securely backed up, and can be restored speedily if you suffer data loss. Some businesses still backup to tape on-site. With our backup solution, the process is automatic, so you’ll save time and effort. Your data is a major business asset, and an effective backup solution is essential both for ensuring business continuity and for peace of mind.
The Benefits of Remote IT Support
We all know that even minor computer problems can seriously interrupt your day. Issues with technology often seem to come out of the blue, and can strike at the most inconvenient times. The inevitable result is downtime, and no business owner wants to spend hours, or even days, while a problem is repaired and then playing catch-up. Preventative measures are the way to go. The remote IT support that Quikteks provides involves non-stop monitoring of your system so that potential problems can be caught before they amplify, and repairing issues quickly when they are discovered.
Is your IT management eating into your time? Think of Quikteks’ managed IT services as your ticket to freedom. Outsourcing your IT care to a pro-freedom business like us will liberate you from those regular chores and the occasional crises.
