<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-rXUfraZden0/UEDcSzT_WNI/AAAAAAAACtM/L9i4XBx2yaA/s1600/IT_mouse.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="border: 1px; border: solid 1px #d6d6d6; clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-rXUfraZden0/UEDcSzT_WNI/AAAAAAAACtM/L9i4XBx2yaA/s1600/IT_mouse.jpg" /></a></div>
Running a small business in today’s world is tougher than ever. With the economy stretched as thin as it has been in recent years, many small business owners have felt the brunt of this downturn hit them the hardest of all. On top of maintaining cash flow, overhead expenses are ever-increasing, and technologies are evolving at an unprecedented rate.<br />
<br />
With that being said, one are of business that can realize a significant cost reduction through outsourcing, is IT Support. IT is critical and unavoidable in today’s world, and running IT effectively and efficiently can reduce costs in all areas of your business.<br />
<br />
Benefits of outsourcing IT are numerous; increased efficiency, steady and controlled IT expenses, and reduced labor costs are amongst the benefits. Most importantly however, outsourcing your IT Support allows you more time to focus on your core business.<br />
<br />
Alternatively, employing an in-house team in even a small business would require 2-3 employees at best. Not only is it very expensive, but you will also be “locked-into” the expertise of only those few you have on staff. Most IT Providers employ experts in every area of the industry, thereby affording your business the options you need for any solution.<br />
<br />
In summary, by outsourcing your IT support, you can get all of the support you need, without the associated high cost of staffing your IT in-house. This is an excellent solution for any small business owner.<br />

<br />
Meraki is the first and only solution that provides device based security policies, built-in NAC, and built-in mobile device management. Meraki includes everything you need for a secure, reliable, headache-free BYOD network — 100% integrated, without added cost or complexity.<br />
<br />
The number of user-owned devices has grown at an unprecedented pace in recent years, with new iPads, Androids, and smartphones connecting every day. This has become a new and often very frustrating problems for administrators to deal with.
While there is a clear need for access for these devices, security and administration of these devices becomes a serious concern. It’s imperative to keep network access secure and apply device-specific policies without opening security holes or causing an undue support burden.<br />
<br />
<b>Built-in BYOD Support </b><br />
<br />
With built-in BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) support, Meraki makes it easier than ever to securely support user-owned iPads, tablets, smartphones, and laptops – without extra appliances, licenses, or complex VLAN configurations.<br />
<br />
<b>Automatically Identify Devices Connected to Your Network </b><br />
<br />
Integrated Layer 7 client fingerprinting technology lets you see all the iPads, iPhones, and Android devices on your network, with no configuration required. Client devices are automatically identified and classified, letting you distinguish between iPads and iPhones, device operating systems, and even manufacturer.<br />

<b>Manage all Your Company's Device</b><br />
<br />
Meraki's Systems Manager provides web based centralized management, diagnostics, and monitoring for all mobile devices managed by your organization. Systems Manager monitors all devices, showing useful metrics including client hardware/software information and recent location, and even lets administrators remotely lock and erase devices.<br />

Cloud based storage and collaboration has become an increasingly competitive space in 2012. With hefty offerings from Google and Microsoft this past month, as well as existing offerings from Dropbox, Amazon, Box, and numerous others, cloud based file storage, at a minimum has reached the mainstream, and is here to stay.<br /><br />While the companies listed above are competing heavily to grab everyday consumers, Egnyte, another Silicon Valley company has chosen to take a different approach. Egnyte was founded to deliver cloud based storage and collaboration solutions to address the more complex needs of businesses. In 2008, Egnyte launched it’s cloud based file server solution to provide on-demand infrastructure services to small, medium and large businesses, and has continually received acclaim and recognition for their product since.<br /><br />Where Egnyte differs from many other services is that it only focuses on paying business customers. These customers have different needs for cloud solutions and Egnyte offers a great solution with it’s HybridCloud. This whitepaper from Egnyte shows a comparison with Box, and is an excellent demonstration of why Egnyte is a superior business driven solution.<br /><br />HybridCloud offers businesses a way to access and share files with team members, while at the same time allowing IT to control and monitor all access. With a new streamlined HTML5 interface, and apps on every major mobile platform, Egnyte plugs seamlessly into nearly any existing infrastructure. The Object Store Architecture allows scaling to 1 billion files and supports 10,000 concurrent users. End-to-end encryption ensures the ability for IT to protect data.<div class="MsoNormal">

Small and medium sized businesses often struggle with trying to keep IT costs down while growing business simultaneously. These companies are increasingly turning to cloud based services to achieve just that goal. </div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
A recent report by O’Reilly Media shows SMB’s on average
save 30% on IT costs over a three year period when opting to employ cloud based services as opposed to on-site implementation. Another study performed
by KPMG shows that 81 per cent of businesses are either planning, are in
the early or advanced stages of experimentation, or already have
complete cloud implementations.</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
10% of SMBs are already
running all core IT services on the cloud and an additional 13% are
currently implementing plans to do so.</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
76% of business
leaders surveyed said economic factors were encouraging them to embrace
cloud-based technology, while 80% said they were looking to improve
processes, offering more agility across the enterprise. </div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
There are numerous cloud based services available that integrate seamlessly with existing technologies, allowing for access to business critical email, documents and services from anywhere, on any device with a browser. </div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
With IT services becoming more reliable and readily available in the cloud, these alternatives are now very attractive to decrease sometimes overwhelming IT costs, and to be more predictable and scalable. By migrating applications hosted in-house to services in the cloud, it becomes possible to better optimize the cost of software, paying only for whatever is used.<br />
<br />
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
When transitioning services to the cloud, business owners can expect:</div>
<ul style="font-family: inherit;">
<li>Lower implementation costs</li>
<li>Reduced time and cost of management</li>
<li>Enhanced team collaboration</li>
<li>Secure and readily available data storage</li>
<li>Access to that data from anywhere</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
All of these benefits allow you to stay focused on your core business, be more collaborative, and get your products/services to market sooner by leveraging a service infrastructure that was once available only to larger companies.</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">

<br />
Password managers act not only as a storage mechanism for all your logins, but employ some of the most powerful encryption methods available to secure that information in a database, as well as during data transfer when logging into sites. As your usernames and passwords are stored by the password manager itself, most offer dynamic password generation to create sophisticated and complex passwords for sites, leaving you to only remember one master password to log into the manager itself. A dynamically generated password is nearly uncrackable by brute force password crack programs, as these programs are written to systematically attempt words from dictionaries, proper names, and lists of common passwords. Only when those options are exhausted, will these programs begin attempting random combinations of characters up to 8 or 9 characters. Password managers are designed to create dynamic passwords much longer and complex.<br />
<br />
By installing the password manager on all your computers and devices, you will be able to log into sites without manual input, which will eliminate the possibility of a keylogger capturing your input. As logins are tied to specific URLs for future use, you'll be protected from logging into malicious phishing sites that otherwise look identical to your intended destination. Many password managers also include auto form-filling features, which can store all your pertinent contact information, which is needed to sign up for new sites. Not only will you once again avoid potential keylogging software from grabbing that info, you will save the time needed to sign up.<br />
<br />
In the most recent <a href="https://www.trustwave.com/global-security-report" target="_blank">2012 Global Security Report published by Trustwave</a>, findings show that once breaching a system via malware, or other means, 80% of security incidents in both large and small companies can be credited to the use of weak administrative passwords.<br />
<br />
The study found that the top ten most widely used passwords within companies are:<br />
<ol>
<li>Password1</li>
<li>welcome</li>
<li>password</li>
<li>Welcome1</li>
<li>welcome1</li>
<li>Password2</li>
<li>123456</li>
<li>Password01</li>
<li>Password3</li>
<li>P@ssw0rd</li>
</ol>
A password manager eliminates the need for using these easy to remember passwords in addition to the other security benefits listed above. <br />
<br />
<b>What to Look for in a Password Manager</b><br />
<br />
<b>Features:</b> A good password manager will not only provide a means of storing login information, but also any information that would be required for signing up on a new site. Besides providing additional security, you will see a great deal of convenience in filling out forms.<br />
<br />
<b>Security: </b>Make sure your password manager provides government level 256-bit AES encryption to protect your passwords. There are also DES and Blowfish algorithms. As long as you passwords are encrypted and not stored in clear text, they are safe.<br />
<br />
<b>Ease of Use: </b>Your password manager should be able to sync all your data everywhere so you can access it anytime you need it. A good password manager will allow you to sign up on sites and login with very minimal effort. <br />
<br />
A great free solution for password management is <a href="https://lastpass.com/" target="_blank">LastPass Password Manager</a>. CNET and many others have given LastPass excellent reviews with CNET saying, “Password security and management have long been a deficient part of any browsing experience, and LastPass solves that problem while also making your passwords accessible anywhere. Cross-platform, cross-browser, and secure with a hefty range of options, this is the gold standard for password management.”<br />

Accurate
time tracking and client communication are critical to the success of
today’s IT service providers, MSPs and computer repair businesses.
However, technicians often struggle to capture their billable time and
update ticket notes in an efficient and effective manner. Often
distracted with other work, technicians sometimes wait for days to enter
time and send follow up communications, which in turn greatly increases
the risk of missing critical billable time and often straining client
relationships due to the lack of timely communication. With this in
mind, DSG DevStudio built <a data-mce-href="http://www.dsgdevstudio.com/the-apps/interlink/" href="http://www.dsgdevstudio.com/the-apps/interlink/" title="Interlink for CommitCRM">Interlink for CommitCRM</a>.<br />

Knowing that we couldn't record all the different provider names, we thought we were out of luck as there is no text-to-speech built-in to the Digium Switchvox systems. We were able to overcome the challenge by building a linux based IVR application that takes the input from the caller via the IVR and looks up the provider information. Once the provider information is determined the information is spoken back to the caller via our text-to-speech solution.</span></span><div style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; "><br /></div><div><span ><span style="font-size: 100%;">The solution is flexible and </span>performance<span style="font-size: 100%;"> seems extremely fast.

This part of Interlink provides the client with a simple web form that they use to select a location/department, choose priority and enter contact information for call back. This input form then notifies either a location approver or company level approver so that they can login to view the tickets awaiting approval. The approver can approve, approve with comments or cancel a ticket waiting for approval. Once approved a history note is created within CommitCRM with approval details and then based on the setting within Interlink for that client the engineer is notified and the ticket is moved to their queue in CommitCRM.</p><p>This workflow greatly simplifies the creation of tickets and allows for documented approvals. In addition when the client receives their QuickBooks invoice they log into the Interlink portal and enter the invoice number and they instantly get a breakdown of the charges by location/department. This reduces the time it takes clients to code and back charge within their company their IT charges.</p></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!--

Something that seems like it should be so easy becomes a royal pain and a huge time waster. I feel its also an area ripe for abuse, as some employees seem to figure out the game of how to take time off without it getting recorded for one reason or another. Whether its the way they submit the request for time off or who they submit the request to, that it just does not get deducted from the bank of accrued time off.<br /><br />Well we finally got tired of not being able to find any decent Employee Attendance Software out there that would solve attendance tracking of employees simply and effectively. Attendance tracking should not have to be complicated and that was the premise behind our design. Attendance Software should be a time saver not a time waster for both the Human Resource Professional and the Employee.<br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.dsolutionsgroup.com/blog/images/employee-attendance.png"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 497px; height: 439px;" src="http://www.dsolutionsgroup.com/blog/images/employee-attendance.png" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />InterConnect<span style=";font-family:courier new;font-size:78%;" >TM</span> Time Tracker makes it simple for an Employee to see what time they have accrued, pending time off requests, approved or denied requests and a complete history of any activity regarding their banks of time. InterConnect<span style=";font-family:courier new;font-size:78%;" >TM</span> Time Tracker also replaces other employee attendance software so that the Human Resource Profressional can easily answer questions that Employees may have regarding their Vacation, Personal, Paid Time Off (PTO), Sick or any other time off type. This allows the HR Professional to get back to more important issues and not the tedious task of tracking and acrruing time off.<br /><br />So if Attendance Tracking for your Employees is what you need and you have looked at the other employee attendance software out there and you are still not satisfied, then contact <a href="http://www.dsolutionsgroup.com/">Dynamic Solutions Group</a> so that we can give you a tour of InterConnect<span style=";font-family:courier new;font-size:78%;" >TM</span> Time Tracker so you can see why we fell that our solution is the best time and attendance software!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.dsolutionsgroup.com/">Dynamic Solutions Group</a> can help your business through it's Technology challenges, please contact <a href="http://www.dsolutionsgroup.com/">Dynamic Solutions Group</a> today at <a href="http://www.dsolutionsgroup.com/contact-computer-support-clearwater.php">800.979.4374</a>.

By separating the logical operation from the physical hardware, a virtualized environment provides greater operational flexibility and streamlines system changes, providing a platform that strengthens business continuity and scales rapidly to meet business demands. Virtualized environments enhance the IT organization's capacity to deliver powerful, robust solutions to meet business needs quickly and efficiently. IT no longer needs to configure each component for them to all work together, reducing complexity and freeing up resources.<br /><br />Virtualized computing resources provide the flexibility to quickly add capability when business demands, while improving business continuity and supporting a robust disaster recovery fail-over plan.<br /><br />While virtualization is commonly associated with server consolidation, applying virtualization technologies broadly across the IT infrastructure yield important improvements in efficiency, flexibility, continuity and agility. Whether the particular challenge is server utilization, application compatibility, centralized data processing, or managing legacy applications, Dynamic Solutions Group has powerful solutions that integrate seamlessly with your IT infrastructure.<br /><br />For more information how <a href="http://www.dsolutionsgroup.com/">Dynamic Solutions Group</a> can help your business through it's Technology challenges, please contact <a href="http://www.dsolutionsgroup.com/">Dynamic Solutions Group</a> today at <a href="http://www.dsolutionsgroup.com/contact-computer-support-clearwater.php">800.979.4374</a>.

So this is how I have mine setup using my MacBook Pro and Entourage. First I setup my Entourage client to connect to my Exchange server using OWA address (which works awesome by the way).<br /><br />Once that is working, go into Entourage Preferences and goto "Sync Services", put a check mark in the "Synchronize contacts with Address Book and .Mac" and in the "Address Book:" drop down box I chose "Contacts [DSG Exchange Server]"<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.dsolutionsgroup.com/blog/uploaded_images/Picture-1-780375.png"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://www.dsolutionsgroup.com/blog/uploaded_images/Picture-1-780372.png" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Now in iTunes under iPhone Info I have my Contacts sync setup as follows:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.dsolutionsgroup.com/blog/uploaded_images/Picture-2-716220.png"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://www.dsolutionsgroup.com/blog/uploaded_images/Picture-2-716217.png" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Now for Calendar in Itunes under iPhone Info I have my Calendar sync setup as follows:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.dsolutionsgroup.com/blog/uploaded_images/Picture-3-774671.png"><img style="cursor: pointer;" src="http://www.dsolutionsgroup.com/blog/uploaded_images/Picture-3-774669.png" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br />After completing these steps, sync your iPhone and you should now have your contacts on your iPhone. Works great for me, hopefully it will work for you as well!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!--

Had to allow IMAP through the firewall first and configure the Exchange (2003) server to allow SSL IMAP connections. After some initial problems getting the iPhone to connect I was successful in getting connected.<br /><br />So my email shows up and all the subfolders of email show up, attachment viewing great, but the major problem / challenge I am running into now is the email only syncs one way. If I delete a message from the iPhone it never deletes it from the server. It will mark the message as being read but thats about it. I am going to try it on another Exchange server to see if its any better on another installation of Exchange 2003. So close yet so far away!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!--

So I setup a brand new Dell OptiPlex 745, Windows XP SP2, 4 GB Ram, 250 GB HD, Core 2 Duo Processor...you get the picture. The machine was not part of a domain (yet), I installed all the MS Updates and then install Adobe CS3 Design Standard on to the machine. Launched InDesign and it seemed fine, used it to test convert a PageMaker file.<br /><br />So in prep of setting the computer up at the users desk I joined to the Domain and logged in as the user to setup Outlook, etc. - So I launch InDesign to do some more testing and as it is loading "starting up service registry" it crashes, details show msvcrt.dll as the offender. I went so far as to uninstall and reinstall CS3 which takes a while, with the same results. I log in as the administrator on the computer (the user that originally installed it) and it worked fine. So I downloaded Microsoft's (Sysinternal's) RegMon with no real red flags there I downloaded FileMon. As I ran FileMon I noticed right before it started to create the Adobe Dump file that it was going through printer files. So I checked to make sure that I had a printer installed on the machine (some programs don't like when there is no printer installed on the machine) and found that is was set to our connected copier by default. For ShiGrins I changed the default to the AdobePDF printer and restarted InDesign - Magically it launched without any problems.<br /><br />I rebooted and tested again and again and it seems to be working now, even after I set the default printer back to the one it was originally.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!--
