Over 30 Years of programming experience using the BBx platform to help businesses streamline operations has prepared me to help you today.
20 years working with Oracle and SQL Server means I offer other options too. Database design and administration may not sound exciting, but it takes imagination and creativity to envision the best way to capture data and put it to work for your business.

Reliable and robust networks don't just happen. They take planning with an eye on future needs. Quality installation services are a good start. Network monitoring lets you know who is making those lights blink and whether they are working hard, or wasting time and resources. I use and recommend OPENDNS to control internet access and network hardware from Cisco.
Databases, email, spreadsheets, and shared documents all require fast and reliable servers that are backed up every day or the data you need may not be there when you need it. Backup and disaster recovery plans should be in place and tested before they are needed. I recommend servers, PC's and laptops from Dell and HP and I recommend backing them up to high capacity tapes using Backup Exec. As a secondary backup, files can be copied offsite to a “cloud” server.
Open source programs can help you do more with less.
Did you know there are free and low cost alternatives to Microsoft Office?
Open Office is compatible with your existing Excel, Word and Power Point files. Libre Office is too.
MySQL Community Server is a freely downloadable version of the world's most popular open source database.
