LAN/WAN/WLAN
Solutions
The network is at the core of all IT infrastructures, whether wireless,
fiber, or copper. A stable, secure, and well managed network is the key
to keeping that infrastructure solid. Clear-Cut Technology Solutions
engineers are well versed in the latest network technology. We can specify
requirements and bring in appropriate contractors to build a network from
the ground up to best meet your needs, or analyze and advise on upgrading
your existing network as required. We also provide ongoing maintenance programs
to ensure your network is functioning as intended.

Server
and Network Support
Changing technology means a variety of options are available to meet your
collaborative business needs. Whether it is a network server running critical
local databases and end-user access control or an offsite collaborative
cloud solution such as Google Drives or Microsoft 365, our engineers have
experience with a variety of server configurations and versions of operating
systems. We can help you decide what systems will work best for your situation
and install or configure them for you. With experience in migrations as
well as integration of disparate systems, our engineers can keep your technology
current and operating under a unified strategy.
As with our LAN/WAN Solutions, we offer ongoing maintenance programs where your servers are regularly patched and monitored to ensure that they are running in top form.
Should the need arise,
our engineers are also adept at disaster recovery. For any systems we are
asked to manage or consult on, we will set up disaster recovery procedures.
We highly recommend “cloud based” back up systems in addition
to local data backup options.

Email Solutions
Email is just as much of a necessity as a phone. But what email service
provider is the best for your needs? Clear-Cut Technology Solutions
can help you choose the best provider for your specific use scenario and
help implement that into your work environment. Many email service providers
offer collaborative suites which were once only available to major enterprises.
We are prepared to set up whatever email or collaborative system which works
best for you, as well as assist in guiding you and your employees on how
to use these tools.

Disaster Recovery / Business Continuity Plans
Disaster Recovery Plans should be part of every company's Business Continuity plan. Ask yourself this: How much data can I afford to lose? If a PC was stolen or a fire swept through my office, is my company data recoverable? What if I accidentally delete the most important database I own and it's not in the Recycle bin? What do I do when the latest virus infects every Word document I own?
According to a University of Texas study, 94% of companies suffering a catastrophic data loss will not survive – 43% don't re-open and 51% close within two years. Studies by both Gartner and IDC have found that over 60% of corporate data resides on desktops and laptops. Less that 8% of users, however, backup on a daily basis.
Clear-Cut
Technology Solutions will work with you to identify all critical
data and devise an appropriate fault tolerant plan to prepare your business
for survival of any occasion of data loss -- from theft, fire, earthquake,
virus, or over-zealous use of the delete key. We can keep you from becoming
another depressing statistic on a University of Texas study.

Desktop
Support
While servers, switches, and routers get a great deal of attention, the
local desktop computer remains your employees' most important tool. Your
network resources may be wonderful, but without good access to them they
may as well be non-existent. Clear-Cut Technology Solutions
does not forget that your employees are the ones getting the work done for
your business, and we are ready and able to troubleshoot computer problems
to get them solved quickly and effectively.

Purchase
Consulting
Purchasing new software or hardware can often be a confusing prospect. There
are many different choices, and nobody wants to make a mistake and buy less
than the best tool for the job. Making the right purchasing decisions can
not only save you money, but can also make a large difference in how successfully
the new products get rolled out and used. We can help. We are familiar with
a variety of implementations, and we can help you make the right choice.
Clear-Cut
Technology Solutions never forgets that your staff needs to
use and support anything you purchase. It is important to keep in mind training
and support costs for new acquisitions, and we can assist you with those
issues too.

Documentation
Services
In an IT infrastructure one of the most neglected items, and yet one of
the most powerful tools, is documentation. Clear, concise, and accurate
documentation makes a huge difference to the efficient running of any IT
infrastructure. Clear-Cut Technology Solutions
can help you here as well. We can trace out and document any or all aspects
of your existing network and put it together into a clear and useful format.
Of course, we will also provide clear documentation on any work we do for
you.
