As a business owner, you probably spend a solid amount of time every day checking your email and responding to leads, customers, and employees.

Big data is an important part of today’s technology world, and it’s helping businesses around the globe better process and target their respective audiences. Consequently, businesses are taking advantage of the cloud to decipher this mass of raw data.
Businesses are often so concerned with their day-to-day operations that they forget to invest heavily in network security. Others understand the need for comprehensive network security, but have a lenient strategy in regards to their IT, which can be just as detrimental in the event of a data leak.
Like all good things, Windows Server 2003 is coming to an end. The popular server operating system from Microsoft’s end-of-support date is July 14, 2015. If you are surprised by how rapidly that date is approaching, that’s because altering a server is a detailed process. We urge your business to seriously consider the ramifications of waiting until the last minute to upgrade.
Larger enterprises employ a large workforce, and as a result, their internal network can get cluttered pretty quickly. This makes finding specific files somewhat challenging. Unlike the larger corporation, your small or medium-sized business might not have trouble communicating within the office. However, it’s still important to optimize all aspects of your business’s infrastructure, and to this end, an intranet solution is ideal.
As business professionals, it’s imperative that you keep your organization's technology up to date with the latest operating systems and software patches, as lapses of network security can be devastating.

To entice users to upgrade to their new offering, Microsoft is offering a free upgrade to those who currently use Windows 7 and Windows 8.1.
You understand that technology is critical to your company’s success, but does your technology get the attention it deserves? If your in-house IT staff is overburdened with support work, they may find it difficult to keep up. This, in turn, puts the average employee in an unenviable position of having to troubleshoot the various common issues that plague the use of their technology.

Mobility grows increasingly more important in today’s business world, and as such, innovators around the world are striving to integrate only the best mobile IT solutions into their corporate infrastructure. Without being tethered to your desk, your organization can open up several opportunities to optimize operations and facilitate growth.
When we say “mobile solutions,” we’re talking about taking your business on the road without fear of being disconnected from your mission-critical applications and data infrastructure. Furthermore, we want to improve the security of your mobile network access. Leonardo & Company has several mobile solutions available for the small and medium-sized business, including:

Granting yourself and your users the ability to step away from the desk to meet and collaborate can increase productivity, and when everybody can be on the network with their laptops or tablets, you can get even more done. However, store-bought commercial wireless routers aren’t really designed to handle the traffic your business needs, nor do they have the security in place to keep your activity safe.

Integrating technology systems that expand their access to mission-critical data is one poignant way to improve operational agility. With so many cloud solutions on the market, it can be difficult to measure what your business needs in a dedicated cloud computing platform.
