• Network conflicts with wired and wireless connectivity.

Our Solution

• Created corrective actions and policies to automatically restart network services, including DHCP and DNS.

• Set up user groups, network shares, and permissions for files.

• Set up appropriate group policies to both secure and automate actions from the small business server to the staff workstations and laptops.

• Desire to begin transitioning server roles to cloud-based services.

• Assessed Office365 or Google Applications for a better fit.

• Created a transfer strategy for applications that could not be migrated to cloud services or were too costly for the organization to migrate.

The Problem

Our Solution

• Desire for office-less sales environment.

• Developed a custom application integrating on-prem and cloud-based resources.

• Created one application that easily guides staff through the custom application with limited training and instruction.

• Client requested 27” iMacs that met the following requirements:

• Secure without a login to start the machine.

• Allow for a staff experience for the sales process.

• Allow for a client experience for research and education on new and used vehicles.

• Open applications on an iMac that only run on a Windows operating system.

• Met on a weekly basis to build out the application in small, detailed steps.

• Created a fluid environment to access both OSX and Windows 8.1 operating systems for different programmatic staff needs.

Our Solution

• Added active directory services.

• There was no disaster recovery plan for server and documents.

• Developed an appropriate disaster recovery strategy to meet client needs relative to client cost expectations.
