Information Technology Assessment and Strategy

• How well is our network performing - is it time to upgrade?
• What can we do to improve the configuration of our phone system - or is it time for a new one?
• How is it possible that we are out of disk space - do we need a new server?
• Is there a way to prevent having to upgrade individual computers on a regular basis?

We can address these questions and others by conducting a thorough assesment of your computing and networking environment. A network can include a wide range of components including: servers, routers, switches, a firewall, computers, telephones, printers, copiers, scanners, faxes, back-up devices, and more. These components should work together harmoniously. By undergoing an information techology assessment of your networking environment, we can design for you the most efficient, cost-effective, scaleable, and technologically advanced network possible. We can save you time and money now and in the future by developing an environment that requires the least amount of maintenance while delivering the highest performance. After we've designed and implemented your network, we can provide an information technology strategy to guide your purchasing and upgrade decisions for years to come. Let us use our more than 20 years of experience to formulate an information technology strategy to fit the needs of your business, maximize network performance, enhance network stability and security, and increase workplace productivity. back to top

Together with our strategic partners such as IBM, Symantec, Ontrack, Adtran, and Computer Associates, The Blencowe Group can keep your data safe, online, backed up, and off site.  back to top

Faxing Solutions

Some businesses are required to either send or receive faxes frequently and can benefit from the efficiency that having a fax server provides. A fax server can reduce your business's document delivery costs by eliminating the need for paper-based delivery, stand-alone fax machines and associated maintenance, supply, equipment and labor costs. Additionally, your employees will spend less time sending and receiving faxes. Lastly, a fax server provides added security to the fax transmission process, which helps businesses comply with privacy regulations.

This turnkey faxing solution converts faxes to a PDF or TIFF file allowing you to receive faxes wherever you are as e-mails and send faxes from any application that can print. The FaxFinder® fax server can be implemented over a WAN to provide electronic faxing capabilities to remote offices. Once a fax is received, users can view, print or forward the fax as if it is an e-mail. Click here to read more and see a diagram on how this solution functions.
