As we ring in the start of the new year, it is also time to make New Years Resolutions for you and your business.

Here are a few areas to consider when making technology improvements:

One of the first things to consider when looking at your technology is whether or not you should outsource your IT and get managed IT services. If technology is not your strong suit and you are more focused on growing your business, investing in managed IT services may be for you.Read more about what DDK’s managed services program offers.
2. Cyber-security
While most people know that cyber crime is an issue today, many small to medium sized businesses fail to make it a priority. However, it is imperative to be proactive in your cybersecurity strategy. Start to consider security awareness training, compliance support, network device monitoring and event response for your business. If you need help with your cybersecurity strategy, make sure to give us a call!
3. Cloud Services
The rumors are true, the cloud can be complex and daunting . . . but it doesn’t have to be. Cloud services allow your technology to be integrated and more efficient. If your servers, applications and emails are not cloud-based, it is time to think about changing your IT strategy.
4. Backup and Disaster Recovery
Unfortunately, disasters are inevitable. However, the way your business responds to these disasters is controllable. Without backup and recovery, you can jeopardize your customers, reputation and even your business. If your business cannot restore failed systems in minutes or have a reactive strategy in the face of an emergency, give us a call to get started.
5. Online Presence
The internet is the most powerful tool for your business. It is important to make sure that you are optimizing your online presence. From a strong SEO-friendly website to pay-per-click marketing campaigns, your business needs to build a strong online reputation.
