Printers and scanners
Keeping software and drivers up to date, checking labels and reports and agreeing what happens when the connection drops.
IT management in Woudenberg and Scherpenzeel for businesses with more than computers
In a business with a workshop or shop, more hangs on the network than office PCs. Good management also keeps the printers, the tablets and the cameras running.
What is attached
Management of everything attached to the network
IT management is often described as keeping computers up to date. In a business with a workshop, shop or warehouse that is only part of the whole. There is also a label printer, a scanner, cameras, tablets in the vans and sometimes a machine with its own software.
These are devices with a life of their own. They receive updates, they become outdated, they have default passwords that were never changed and they hang on the same network as your administration anyway. Management here means that someone knows what is there and what it does.
What we manage
Devices that are often attached to the network in a business in Woudenberg
Printers and label printers
Drivers, network settings and replacement devices, so that nothing fails to print on a Tuesday morning.
Cameras and access
Security cameras and locks with their own software, separated from the administration and with strong passwords.
Phones and tablets
Set up for business, with a lock and the option to wipe them remotely if one is lost.
Machines with software
Control software that must not simply be updated. We agree when and by whom, and keep it off the internet where possible.
Office
The laptops and PCs of the administration, with updates, virus protection and backup as at any other office.
Planning
Maintenance at the moment it bothers you least
An office can be updated in the evening. In a business that opens early, runs on Saturdays or cannot stand still during a peak, that is harder. We plan maintenance around your opening hours and your season. A shop that is busy on Friday and Saturday gets its updates on Monday morning, not on Friday afternoon.
For devices that cannot be updated automatically we keep a list: what is there, which version, when it was last checked. It is a simple list, and when something fails you do not have to find out first what is actually attached.
If it goes down
A contingency plan for what cannot stand still
If a system or the internet goes down you want to know what to do. Together we agree:
- which systems are critical and what can still be done at that moment
- who you call, and what we can do remotely before someone comes by
- whether an emergency connection via mobile internet is needed for the systems that cannot wait
- where the backup is and how quickly we can restore it
Frequently asked questions about IT management in Woudenberg
Do you also manage devices that are not computers?
As far as they are attached to the network or have software that needs to be updated, yes. We start with a list of what is there and then agree what we maintain. For maintenance of the machine itself you stay with the supplier.
What is the difference with IT management for an office in Amersfoort?
The work is the same, the emphasis differs. In an office the laptop is central. For businesses with a workshop or shop it is more about devices, coverage and continuity. You see that in what we monitor and how we plan maintenance.
Do you also work in Scherpenzeel?
Yes. Scherpenzeel and the surrounding area are part of our home region, and the same agreements apply.
Can I start small?
Certainly. Many businesses start with the backup and the security of mail and files, and expand afterwards. A first conversation gives you a picture of what pays off most.
