The Key to Budget-Friendly IT: Automation and Simplicity
Perhaps you’ve been here? An unresponsive device in your network has halted productivity (and therefore revenue) in your office. Southridge Support quickly determines the device needs a reboot. But there are so many devices and wires and switches in the IT closet, everyone agrees that an employee pulling plugs is not the best way to ensure business continuity! But do you really need a technician on-site for every reboot? Even those that are part of routinely scheduled maintenance? That can get expensive! Not to mention the downtime.
As usual, the answer to all budget-related IT problems is automation and simplicity. And that’s why our Remote Managed Power Device is this month’s Featured Product. With Managed Power, if a device needs a reboot, one call to Southridge and we have you up and running in minutes, avoiding onsite charges and minimizing downtime. In addition to the ability to reboot a device remotely, Managed Power also provides:
- Ping Test Functionality – monitors IP addresses and pings them on a regular basis to confirm connectivity. When an internet connection is interrupted, the Remote Managed Power Device will automatically initiate a series of power-cycles in an attempt to reconnect.
- Proactive Program Reboot – schedules reboots for devices that require routine reboots
- Power Consumption Reporting – reports the power input of the specific device plugged into a specific port
- Fully Managed in the Cloud – makes it easy for Southridge to manage multiple devices remotely
- Remote Managed Power Device – even if your internet fails, the device will still execute its programmed features
- Powerful Surge Protection
- Lifetime Warranty and Automatic Replacement
Remote Managed Power is our Featured Product of the Month because it’s an inexpensive solution that gives you control of your networks’ uptime and provides stability in your IT costs. Ask your Technical Account Manager or email us and let’s see if this cost-saving product is a good fit for your business.
