NETWORK SUPPORT - OVERVIEW
We are specialists in designing and setting up local
area networks which enable businesses to make more efficient use of their
IT investment.
A computer network support setup allows companies to
share data, printers, calendars, contact databases easily and automatically
so that every member of staff always has access to the very latest information.
The rapid takeup of broadband Internet access is opening
up the network support options available to SME's. As more and more businesses
switch to
broadband
and realize the benefits of a computer network, we are here to support,
advise and implement solutions tailored specifically to your business
needs.
Our services are not limited to just supporting pc based
systems or networks. Contact us
for more information about what VPN or 'virtual private networks' and
wireless networks can do for your London based business.
LOCAL AREA
NETWORK SUPPORT
The most common type of network is the local area network.
This can consist of a simple connection between 2 pc's in the same
room to a very complex connection joining hundreds of pc's, printers,
hubs, and routers in a vast building. It is
said to be "Local" when all of the facilities taking part on
the network are on a single site.
Most SME's will be looking for something relatively
simple to allow them to share a broadband internet connection, several
pc's and 1 or 2 printers. Ebit Solutions is just as happy setting up a
small network with 10 pc's as we are designing and implementing a large
complex
infrastructure with network support management and monitoring tools.
With several years of qualified experience we can take
complete ownership of the project from assessing your cabling and electrical
needs to the installation
and setting up of your servers and desktops once the network is in place.
There is no right or wrong with the choice of network
you make although some types of network are better suited to particular
objectives than others. We will take all of these things into account
when designing your network as well as:
- Your company size; i.e. premises, number of staff, pc's, printers,
etc.
- Business processes; your industry, the way you run your operation,
are staff constantly on the move, do product lines change quickly
- Aims & objectives; what it is you want to achieve with a network
- Physical characteristics; do you work in one location or several locations
spread over distances
- Internal technical skills; this would determine how we set up maintenance
- Timescale; do you have deadlines to meet, how long would the solution
be expected to be in place
There are more factors and we can't list all of them here. You can be
rest assured that our project management expertise will comprehensively
cover all the considerations and risks involved in delivering a successful
implementation
