Every business, regardless of size and industry, needs to have an online presence these days. One of the best ways to do this is to create your own website. To do this, you’ll need a web host. Here’s a quick overview of what a web host is and the two most common types of hosting.

From COVID-themed phishing scams to highly sophisticated ransomware attacks, businesses have had their hands full with cybersecurity this year. And it doesn’t help that the cybersecurity landscape is constantly changing and grows more confusing by the minute, either.

For many businesses, IT is a constant source of stress. One minute computers and apps are working just as they should, but in the next they can completely halt workflows and hamper productivity. Unless you have the technical background and know how to fix these issues, you may end up making the problem much worse for you and your employees.

Business success comes down to whether profitability can be sustained, which is why building and maintaining relationships with your customers is crucial. To help with this, business owners are implementing customer relationship management (CRM) systems.

Today’s companies need technology to function. Without it, businesses cannot compete and succeed. But with technology comes the ever-constant threat of hackers and cybercriminals. That’s why small- and mid-sized businesses need to protect themselves with robust cybersecurity solutions managed by IT professionals.

Servers have become an essential tool for many businesses. They manage and keep business data secure, and improve workplace productivity. However, overburdening your servers causes their operating temperatures to rise, which can lead to reduced server reliability and data loss.

In the past few months, the pandemic has driven businesses to utilize every tool available to them to keep operations going. This largely meant deploying cloud-based solutions that can support remote work setups and connect multilocational workers.

When it comes to the cloud, small- and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) are often presented with the choice of either a private or a public cloud. But there is a third option — a hybrid cloud. And this is the choice that provides SMBs with greater flexibility.

No business continuity plan is perfect. Each plan has risks that can result in your business’s failure if not taken into account from the start. But don’t blame it all on your managed IT services provider (MSP) — often, a system’s design has loopholes to start with.

Most managed IT services providers (MSPs) promise “proactive” cybersecurity consulting. All businesses embrace the idea of preventing cyberattacks and data breaches before they happen, and MSPs themselves would much rather brainstorm safeguards than troubleshoot time-sensitive downtime events.
